200 mg CBD Bath Bomb, Eucalyptus

Description

Two hundred milligrams of cannabidiol isolate pressed into one eucalyptus CBD bath bomb, scented with eucalyptus oil rather than a fragrance compound. It is the same base as the lavender unit with a different top note, and it sells singly rather than in a multipack. Net weight in grams is printed next to the milligram figure, because one of those numbers is useful and the other is a headline.

What is pressed into a eucalyptus cbd bath bomb

Sodium bicarbonate and citric acid make the fizz. The rest is a butter phase, the isolate and the essential oil. No mica and no glitter, which matters to anyone who has had either come out of a drain.

Two hundred milligrams in forty gallons of water

Milligram figures work differently once something dissolves in a full tub, and we would rather say so than let the number imply more than it is. The same 200 mg in a two ounce balm is a concentrated thing you put on one spot. In a eucalyptus CBD bath bomb it disperses through the whole bath, and most of the cannabinoid floats rather than dissolving, because cannabidiol is not water soluble. The price per milligram is still printed because you should know what you paid. The bath and body range lists net weight in grams for the same reason.

Why a eucalyptus cbd bath bomb uses the oil rather than a fragrance

Essential oil and declared fragrance are different things on an ingredient list, and this one is the former. Eucalyptus oil is strong, so a single bomb will scent a small bathroom for a while and a shared bathroom for longer. Scent in the bath range is listed by its essential oil or its declared fragrance component rather than described as a mood, which rules out most of the adjectives this category normally runs on.

Sold singly, and why that matters

Buying six of a scent you turn out to dislike is a waste of money, so the single unit exists for people who want to try one. A eucalyptus CBD bath bomb at nine dollars is also the cheapest way to see how this company tests and prices things before committing to a jar of anything. The four scent sampler box carries one of each at 100 mg if you have not decided, and the 200 mg singles in eucalyptus and lavender are the refill once you have. Per unit, a single eucalyptus CBD bath bomb costs slightly more than the same bomb in a multipack, and the listing prints both so the difference is visible.

Testing a pressed unit

Each batch of this eucalyptus CBD bath bomb is assayed by a laboratory with no ownership tie to us: cannabinoid content per unit, heavy metals and microbial screening on one sheet. Unit to unit variation is the figure worth reading on a pressed product, so the certificate states the assay per bomb rather than a batch average. Anything under its printed milligrams is withdrawn and its report stays published next to the passing ones. Reading the units on the metals panel correctly is the subject of heavy metals in hemp.

Is there anything published on this

On cannabidiol in bathwater, no. The published topical literature describes creams, gels and patches at stated milligram per gram concentrations applied directly to skin, mostly in cell culture or animal models, with a handful of human studies. Immersion in heavily diluted water has not been the subject of a controlled trial, and no figure from a leave on gel transfers to it. Eucalyptus oil has its own separate literature as a fragrance and topical ingredient. That is a description of where evidence exists and where it stops, not a claim about this bomb, and the regulator’s position on cosmetic claims is published at fda.gov.

External use, and not food. Cocoa butter and colourant can leave a film on a porous tub, so rinse it afterwards. The certificate for the current batch is linked on this page and filed by lot number.
