Papa Johns Is Bringing Garlic-Scented Self-Care to Your Bathtub

Let’s be honest—self-care in 2025 looks a little different. It’s less about cucumber slices on your eyes and more about whatever sparks pure, unfiltered joy. And sometimes? That joy smells like garlic.

This Valentine’s Day, Papa Johns is rewriting the rules of both romance and relaxation with a limited-edition Garlic Dipping Sauce Bath Bomb. Yes, you read that correctly. The buttery, garlicky elixir you unapologetically dunk your crust in is now a soak-for-your-soul experience.

Because what better way to say “I love you” (or let’s be real—treat yourself) than marinating in the same rich aroma that’s fueled your 2 a.m. pizza cravings?

Garlic Over Roses—And We’re Here for It

While the rest of the world scrambles for overpriced flower arrangements and generic chocolates, Papa Johns saw an opportunity to celebrate the true MVP: Garlic Dipping Sauce. It’s the lifeblood of pizza night. The silent hero when your slice needs saving. And now, it’s your self-care sidekick.

The brand is surprising its most devoted fans with these bath bombs—spherical symbols of buttery affection. Pop one into your tub, and boom: liquid garlic heaven. Skin hydration with a side of nostalgia? Sign us up.

Because Self-Care Isn’t One-Size-Fits-All

Let’s be real—2025 has taught us that self-care is personal. For some, it’s a $60 jade roller. For others, it’s binge-watching reality TV in sweatpants. And for a select few? It’s soaking in a tub that smells like you fell into a pizza shop at closing time. Iconic.

Papa Johns gets it. They’ve tapped into something bigger than novelty—they’ve embraced the weird, wonderful ways we find comfort. This is self-care for the pizza people. The garlic sauce loyalists. The “yes, I’d like extra” crowd.

Love, but Make It Buttery

So this Valentine’s Day, whether you’re celebrating with a partner, your besties, or just yourself—consider skipping the clichés. Pour a glass of wine, order that extra-large pizza, and drop a Garlic Dipping Sauce Bath Bomb into the tub.

Because love comes in many forms. Sometimes, it smells like garlic.
