Can relate but I made potions in the bath. With various colors of shampoo. In actual glass test tubes and such from the science supply store (probably not wise @my parents but all the little glass bottles were adorable).

Holy shit you just reminded me of my childhood.
I remember mixing all the things I could find in the bathroom because I thought it would make your hair grow faster and might be the secret to immortality, because none of the scientists would have considered mixing dove and palmolive together.

Completely plausible! Have you aged since? Or stopped aging at 27?

Edit: If not maybe you needed to add a few drops of purple eyeglass-cleaner sample.

I have aged since but I'm not quite 27 yet, so maybe it worked?
I'll try adding that eyeglass cleaner and let you know how it's going when I'm 40.

Ah! Not a chance, everybody knows you need to put that mix in the freezer for a few weeks. Preferably with a rock and a marble at the bottom.
