There is perhaps nothing else that says self-care more than a nice, warm, soothing bath. A bath is a chance to stop, slow down and relax and we’re here to help you level-up your next bathing experience with your very own homemade bath bomb!
Get creative, mixing up all your bath bomb ingredients with your favourite essential oil and colour, to tailor your next bath to your very own preferences.
Ingredients
- 1 cup baking soda
- ½ cup citric acid
- ½ cup cornstarch
- ½ cup Epsom salts
- 2 tsp essential oil (choose your favourite scent, such as rose geranium or patchouli)
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- A few drops of liquid food colouring
- A mould
- Orange peels
Method
- In a bowl, whisk together baking soda, citric acid, cornstarch and Epsom salts.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together your essential oil, coconut oil and food colouring until colouring is completely incorporated.
- Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry and keep whisking together. Add a little water very gradually to help combine.
- Place orange peels in the bottom of your moulds, and then top with your mixture.
- Leave your moulds to set for two hours before removing and watching them fizz away and brighten up your bathing experience!
