Here are a bunch of beautiful bath bombs to get you through the stress of the Holiday season

There are a LOT of reasons to take a bath right now! First off, for many of us baths are better than showers because of their luxury and healing abilities. Also, tub time presents a unique opportunity to binge-eat snacks while playing the challenging game of eating without getting your food wet. It is a truly impossible joy.

But also, now more than ever, with the combination of the growing political tension and the stress of the holidays, taking a bath serves as a necessary form of self-care. While plain old hot water will technically do the trick for a relaxing home spa time, there are way too many deliciously frothy bath bombs and oils out there for us to settle on boring tub time. If you’re going to bathe your body in a vat of liquid, might as well make it a tasty and colorful liquid that hearkens to a field full of flowers.

So sit back, put your feet up, and let us present you with some comforting, fizzing bath bombs that will hopefully bring your blood pressure back to a happy place.
