Bath Bombs

Gregg Wallace learns how bath bombs are made at Lush's factory in Dorset, starting at the intake bay with a delivery of sodium bicarbonate, which reacts with other ingredient citric acid in water to create the carbon dioxide that provides the all-important fizz. Cherry Healey visits Loughborough University to learn how taking a hot bath can provide some of the benefits of exercise, and also heads to a cutting-edge laboratory that grows human skin for cosmetic testing
