Bath crackles are sprinkled into tub water where they fizz, pop and crackle on contact. Stirring the water or gently breaking up the crystals increases the effect. Most listings note the crystals dissolve fully, leaving a mess-free sensory experience.

Soapy bath dough is described as reusable across multiple baths. Leftovers should be stored in the product’s resealable jar or container between uses to keep the dough moist and ready for the next bath.
