Bath Bombs + Bath Dust
Â
FIZZY REACTION | The fun, fizzy reaction come from Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) and Citric Acid! The chemical reaction between the Baking Soda, Citric Acid and water forms carbon dioxide, which is the "fizz" and also why Bath Bombs feel cold when you hold them (fun fact)! Baking Soda increases the alkaline level in the water, which makes your skin feel silky smooth. Citric Acid is said to be a rich source of antioxidants.
COLORANTS | As of March 2025, I no longer make products using artificial colorants (dyes or lakes). If you see an item that is colored, like Sugar Scrub or lotion, it is made with a natural colorant like turmeric or beet root powder. Bath Bomb my be painted with mica powder, which is used in cosmetic products like eyeshadow, but it will not color the bath water.
Soaking Salts
EPSOM SALT | (Magnesium Sulfate) is said to be a magnesium-rich salt, which is said to help your muscles & mind relax. When magnesium is absorbed through the skin, it is said to release serotonin.
PINK HIMALAYAN SALT | Pink Himalayan Salt (Sodium Chloride) is said to contain 84 different minerals.Â
BAKING SODA | Baking soda has cleansing and detoxifying properties that may help to purify your body and boost immunity.
OILS & BUTTERS | Avocado Oil, Vitamin E and Jojoba Oil
Grapeseed Oil - Avocado oil contains a number of fatty acids, as well as minerals and vitamin A, C, D and E. It is said to have anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties. and also increases collagen production. Additionally, is said that Avocado oil can increase collagen production, and may be used on all skin types, potentially including psoriasis or eczema.
Jojoba Oil - Jojoba Oil is said to regulate sebum (oil your skin produces) production because it's so similar to the sebum that your body produces naturally. It is also said to have anti-inflammatory properties which help to tame chaffing and chapping, reduce redness caused by drying, ease the effects of eczema and rosacea, and keep skin calm and comfortable
Vitamin E - Vitamin E is a fat-soluble nutrient with antioxidant properties, and also helps blood circulation.
Â
FOR YOUR TUB | Polysorbate 80 is natural vegetable sourced emulsifier which binds the water & oil together, preventing the oil ring around your tub. Less than 1% is used in our products. Also, it's not just used in Bath Products, Polysorbate 80 is used in a lot of perishable food items like relish.
FRAGRANCE OILS | All fragrance oils used in Silky Body & Bath's Products are Phthalate-Free comply with the strictest global RIFM and IFRA standards. In addition, the fragrance oils undergo a triple-check quality assurance program.Â

Body Scrub
EXFOLIANTS | Only natural exfoliants are used in SB&B body scrubs. Sugar Cane is a great exfoliant because of its naturally abrasive properties but still gentile enough to use on your skin. It contains glycolic acid, which helps break down dead, flaky & dry skin. Coffee grounds are a gentle exfoliant and a contain caffeine and chlorogenic acid which is said to help reduce inflammation and also said to contain antimicrobial properties.
BUTTERS & OILS | Shea Butter, Kokum Butter, Avocado Oil, Jojoba Oil and Vitamin E are used in the body scrubs to hydrate your skin after it has been exfoliated.
Shea Butter  works as an emollient that softens and hydrates skin. It contains several types of fatty acids — like lineoleic, oleic, palmitic and stearic acids — that improve the skin's natural barrier.
Kokum Butter is said to have moisturizing, anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, enhances skin elasticity, and offers protection against environmental stressors.
Avocado Oil contains a number of fatty acids, as well as minerals and vitamin A, C, D and E. It is said to have anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties. and also increases collagen production. Additionally, is said that Avocado oil can increase collagen production, and may be used on all skin types, potentially including psoriasis or eczema.
Jojoba Oil - Jojoba Oil is said to regulate sebum (oil your skin produces) production because it's so similar to the sebum that your body produces naturally. It is also said to have anti-inflammatory properties which help to tame chaffing and chapping, reduce redness caused by drying, ease the effects of eczema and rosacea, and keep skin calm and comfortable
Vitamin E - Vitamin E is a fat-soluble nutrient with antioxidant properties, and also helps blood circulation.
COLORANTS | Only natural colorants are used in the scrubs. The coffee scrubs are brown due to the natural color of the coffee grinds. Any sugar scrub that looks red contains Beet Root Powder that is said to fade dark spots and is also said to be a good source of Vitamin C. Turmeric Powder will turn the scrub a yellow color along with having moisturizing benefits.
EMULSIFIER | An emulsifier is used to better blend butters, oils and other products in the body scrub. It helps the scrub not separate and also better blend with water during exfoliation. When combined with water, it will turn into a nice lather - almost a lotion consistency. I use Oliveum 1000 (or Bio-Mulsion Wax), which is said to be great for people with sensitive skin. It is one of the more expensive emulsifiers, since it is an olive oil & plant-derived emulsifier.
PRESERVATIVE | Natural Geogard 221 protects against mold and bacteria in lotions, scrubs, and more. It is very gentle on the skin and protects you from microbial spoilage (bacteria, yeast, fungus) that may develop in skin care products over time.
EXTRAS | Arrowroot Powder - used to help oils & butter absorb into your skin. Some scrubs also include a small amount of Cinnamon Powder - said to be rich in antioxidants and said to help with hyperpigmentation. Additional powders for natural coloring: Beet Root Powder or Turmeric.
