CBD Bath Bomb

Frequently Asked Questions 

What are CBD bath bombs?

A cannabidiol bath bomb is a natural bath remedy that contains CBD, a non-psychoactive cannabinoid derived from the hemp plant — the same plant that is known to produce the cannabis flower. The CBD compound is artfully extracted from the plant, resulting in potent oils that are combined into a herbal, aromatic bath bomb. 

When using a CBD bath bomb from Life Elements, an array of other carefully cultivated herbs and compounds  will be infused into the tub of hot or warm water. As the pure particles dissolve, the water becomes supercharged with the medicinal properties. 

Life Elements creates high-quality CBD bath bombs that are rich in pure, effective plant compounds. 

Why are you stocking Life Elements bath bombs? 

We selected the Life Elements brand as our choice CBD bath bomb because of a demonstrated commitment to quality using nature-based ingredients. Life Elements processes and produces its products in a women-run, family-operated space. All products are crafted in small batches too. 

Life Elements makes CBD bath bombs that are always free from toxic chemicals, plus no harmful ingredients or synthetic fragrances. Not tested on animals, ever. And yes, we only stock CBD bath bombs that are vegan. 

Our CBD bath bombs are derived from plants, meaning the active ingredients are natural ingredients. 

With the Life Elements process, CBD oils come together with essential oils and all-natural fragrances to create a relaxing bath experience. 

A CBD bath bomb is a simple, natural and nourishing treat, with a delicate fizz. Sit, soak and enjoy. 

How do CBD bath bombs work?

In minutes, the compounds and properties in our CBD bath bombs will be dissolved into the bath water. It’s important to note that the temperature of your bath will have a different effect on the body and the rate at which the bath bomb dissolves. We recommend running your bath with hot water, allowing it to warm slightly before stepping into the tub. 

CBD bath bombs are best used in combination with support from other natural wellness remedies, available in our shop. All of the active ingredients are herbal or naturally occurring in the environment. 

How many milligrams of CBD oil is in bath bombs?

Our CBD bath bombs are lab-rested for quality assurance. We  select and stock brands that provide a high potency of hemp-derived CBD oil. Each bath bomb contains 200 mg of full-spectrum CBD.

When we say full-spectrum CBD, we mean that the bomb contains more than one cannabis plant extracts. There are essential oils and terpenes present too, which results in a type of magical synergy known as the entourage effect. 

Can CBD bath bombs relieve anxiety or stress?

A CBD bath bomb contains essential oils with the property to relieve mental stress and reduce signs of anxiety. 

Never underestimate the power of an aroma. Scents are highly therapeutic. 

Made for boosting the mood, we offer two different types of CBD bath bombs. Choose depending on how you’d like to be soothed. 

Create a relaxing space. Set your work aside and focus on the quality of your life, let the CBD, ylang-ylang and calendula flower extract work its magic. 

Can I use a CBD bath bomb for pain?

A major cause of pain for many is inflammation. Inflammation is related to autoimmune issues, which impart whole-system impacts on the body… whether it be the joints, skin or other stress-regulating organs like the thyroid or adrenal glands. 

Our bodies are unique, and so is our pain. Often, people who experience pain need to treat their symptoms with a combination of remedies.

That being said, when taking oral CBD, the dose and effect may range for each individual. CBD bath bombs provide a one-fits-all dosage. 

Before soaking with a CBD bath bomb, we recommend taking note of your pain on a scale from 1 to 10. It’s a helpful way to better understand your results, as CBD can support each individual differently. 

Life Elements CBD bath bombs include a variety of herbs, proven to support overall wellness and  reduce pain in the body. A great example is arnica, which is a go-to for inflammation relief.  So, if you have arthritis or another type of swelling of the joints, try dropping a CBD bath bomb into the tub. 

CBD bath bombs are a form of heat therapy, combined with immersive floating therapy (though soaking in a small, commonly sized tub with warm water should not be considered a replacement for the true practice of flotation therapy at a dedicated, in-person float lounge). 

Heat therapy is used for creating a flow of fresh, clean, oxygenated blood to the area of the body that is causing pain. It’s effective in relieving aches and stiffness. 

On the other hand, cold slows blood flow, reducing a different kind of swelling and pain that occurs in the short-term, like a sprained ankle from running.

If you have pain in a specific area, we recommend using the Turmeric Salve from Yuyo Botanics. Alternatively, if you are looking for a cooling sensation, try Apothecanna’s line of creams and sprays. 

So many of our herbal products contain arnica, because it’s truly a superb herb. 

Do CBD bath bombs get you high?

Nope! CBD bath bombs relax the body, but they won’t get you high. 

Our CBD bath bombs from Life Elements are entirely organic and infused with full-spectrum CBD, meaning they contain less than .3% THC. There is not enough THC to get you high.

However, here’s a tiny tip that everyone who is a plant medicine pioneer should know: There will always be a very small amount of tetrahydrocannabinol in every product that contains cannabidiol. 

It doesn’t quite matter if the CBD-infused product is listed as broad-spectrum or full-spectrum hemp, though broad-spectrum products may claim to be entirely free of any and all THC particles. 

Essentially, the amount of THC in CBD is so minimal. It would never get you high or give you any of the funky psychotropic feelings that are associated with some types of cannabis, fungis or other plant medicines. 

Are CBD bath bombs considered topical CBD?

If a CBD product is referred to as topical, it indicates that the CBD is intended to be applied directly to the body. A topical CBD product is absorbed through the skin, which is the body’s largest organ. 

When shopping for topical CBD, you’re most often going to see results for creams, salves and lotions. 

How do CBD bath bombs compare to other CBD oil products?

 Trust us, there are a lot of ways to get your CBD. CBD bath bombs are an excellent option for delivering cannabinoids to the body, but some people may be looking for a more direct method that is topical, edible, smokeable or vapable.

 Not only do CBD bath bombs provide an effective whole-body experience, but the delivery method is a pleasant way to enjoy the benefits of CBD without consuming it orally. Some people don’t like the taste of CBD oil tinctures. It takes time to get used to plant medicines, no matter how they’re consumed or introduced to the body. 

There are also exceptional varieties of beauty products containing CBD oil, which can soothe, brighten, hydrate and enrich your skin from head to toe. If you don’t know, not you know.

All in all, CBD is a key component of creating a routine where you regularly treat yourself is essential. Wellness habits, like soaking with a CBD oil bath bomb or using a CBD serum on your face, can affect how you think about your body and care for yourself every single day. 

How long should you soak in a CBD bath bomb?

A CBD bath bomb begins to dissolve in minutes, but it’s the soaking that really ensures the compounds are absorbed in the body. 

There’s no limit to how long you should soak in a tub with a CBD bath bomb. Let’s say, if you only have 15 minutes in between Zoom calls, you can still enjoy a CBD bath bomb. However, we recommend spending at least 30 minutes in the bath with a fully dissolved CBD bath bomb to be able to get the most of each experience. 

Remember: When soaking in the bath for a long period of time, the skin starts to begin a process that is referred to casually as “pruning.” It’s a familiar wrinkling of the phalanges, most commonly at the tips of the fingers and the bottom of the toes. 

Using a moisturizing agent on the hands, feet and other parts of the body is a nice paring after a long soak in the tub. After soaking with a CBD bath bomb, we recommend applying Conscious Coconut Oil or Gold Shea Butter by LIHA Beauty. 

Are these hemp bath bombs safe for sensitive skin?

Our CBD bath bombs are 100% safe for sensitive skin. All ingredients are natural and sourced from quality procurers of herbs and essences. 

In fact, a CBD bath bomb may be able to reduce skin issues. Our CBD bath bombs by Life Elements contain colloidal oatmeal, which has been proven to reduce skin redness and irritation, as well as arnica. 

What are the benefits of CBD bath bombs?

Using a bath bomb infused with CBD may provide a variety of benefits for the mind and body, though the bath bomb as a specific delivery method for non-psychoactive cannabinoids has not yet been widely researched by the mainstream science community.  

However, research has investigated how CBD can benefit the skin, which is the body’s largest organ. CBD can act as a nourishing moisturizing agent. It may heal the skin and reduce redness, as mentioned before. 

As a natural compound, CBD is also known to soothe muscles and relieve aches and pains. When CBD is dissolved in water, CBD bath bombs may be able to help with anxiety and relaxation. Plus, it’s possible that a CBD bath bomb can help you achieve a more restful sleep. We recommend adding CBD Sleep Mints by Lucent Botanicals to your routine, or the Kana Lavender CBD Sleep Mask to make your skin feel silky smooth. 

Keep a CBD bath bomb available for an evening treat, but don’t expect it to replace other essential wellness routines, practices and habits. One more thing: it’s important to note that CBD bath bombs are not a cure for any illness or injury.
