BATH POTIONS · LATHER LAGOON · Nº 0008

Warming Bath Potion

£10

BATH BOMB SET

The thermostat war in this house has been going on since October. This bath does not touch the thermostat.

There is a certain household argument that returns every year around October: who touched the thermostat, and why. This potion sidesteps it entirely. Sweet orange rounds in warm and citrus-bright, ginger heats from underneath like something finally working, and benzoin settles in thick and amber at the very end, resinous and warm long after the water's gone.

THE PLAIN ANSWER

What this actually is

Second strongest opening. Behave accordingly.

BATH POTIONS · LATHER LAGOON

A sweet orange, ginger and benzoin bath potion from Lather Lagoon, sold as a set of three bath bombs or a 7 kilogram hessian sack of sea-salt soak (there is no 350 gram pouch for this particular blend). Sweet orange arrives warm and citrus-rounded, ginger heats in underneath with real bite, and benzoin settles thick, resinous and amber right at the finish, the kind of warmth that lingers well after the water has cooled. Drop a bomb into warm running water and let it dissolve, or scoop two to three teaspoons of the salt soak in as the tap runs.

Sweet orange, ginger and benzoin, for a house on a heating truce.

The plain facts, and every last thing inside.

INGREDIENTS · INCI

Sodium Chloride, Citrus Sinensis oil, Zingiber Officinale Oil, Styrax Benzoin Oil, Limonene, Benzyl Alcohol, Citronellol, CI 18050

ALLERGEN ADVICE

Contains fragrance allergens: Limonene, Benzyl Alcohol, Citronellol. If you have sensitive skin, patch test first.

THE CASE FOR IT

Why you want it

Reasons, not filler.

Warmth, unlinked to the bill

Kept for the evenings when the heating truce holds and someone still needs to be warm.

A resinous finish that lingers

Benzoin settles into the skin and keeps a low warmth going well after the bath itself.

Heat with real bite

Ginger keeps the whole blend from turning purely sweet, giving it genuine warmth rather than fragrance alone.

The cold-house soak

For whichever room in the house has quietly given up on the radiator this year.

FROM THE KEEPERS

How to use it

Four steps. Nobody’s watching.

Nobody reads these. Then everybody reads these.

Bath bomb set: run a warm bath and drop one bomb in whole. Let it fizz all the way out before you get in.
Salt soak (7kg sack): scoop two to three teaspoons into the water as it runs and swirl until dissolved.
Soak until the water cools, which will take longer than the thermostat argument ever does.

SAFETY NOTICEPATCH TEST FIRST FILEDTHE SENSIBLE DESK

The sensible bit

For external bath use only. Formats differ: the bath bomb set fizzes out fully in the water before you get in; the 7kg sack salt soak uses 2 to 3 teaspoons dissolved in running water. Avoid contact with eyes; rinse well with clean water if it happens. Keep out of reach of children and pets. The bath and floor can be slippery once salt or fizz residue is in the water, so take care getting in and out. Contains fragrance (Limonene, Benzyl Alcohol, Citronellol); if you have sensitive skin, patch test first and stop use if any irritation occurs.

BELOW THE SURFACE

From our Wurld

The part the catalogue cannot explain.

The heating truce holds until November

Every October the household thermostat argument starts again, quietly, over who touched it and by how much. Warming settles the matter without settling the argument: sweet orange rounds in warm, ginger heats from underneath, benzoin sits thick and resinous at the very end, long after the water's gone cold and the thermostat debate has resumed.

TORN FROM THE LATHER LAGOON LEDGER

“Sweet orange rounds warm, ginger heats from underneath, benzoin sits thick and amber at the very end.” — the entire official entry. The Desk considers it sufficient.

LAST CHANCE ONE LAST LOOK BEFORE THE HATCH

Leave the salt. Fight about the bill.

Go back to the annual thermostat negotiation and another evening spent cold, waiting for someone else to give in. Or drop the bomb, scoop the salt, and let sweet orange, ginger and benzoin provide their own heat instead. From nine pounds fifty. Bomb set or 7kg sack.

You wanted warmth, not another negotiation. Here it is.
