Bath bombs have become a staple in many homes, transforming a simple bath into a luxurious spa-like experience. Creating your own bath bombs at home allows you to personalise colours, fragrances, and designs, making bath time even more unique. In this guide, we'll take you through the steps to craft distinctive bath bomb designs and explore how to enhance your experience with some fantastic products from Lucky Leaf Bath Bombs.
Getting Started
Ingredients Needed:
- Baking Soda: The main ingredient in any bath bomb, providing fizz.
- Citric Acid: Essential for creating the fizzy reaction.
- Epsom Salt: Known for its soothing properties.
- Cornstarch: Helps to bind the ingredients together.
- Essential Oils: For fragrance – popular choices include lavender, peppermint, and eucalyptus.
- Food Colouring: To add beautiful hues to your bath bombs.
- Moulds: Get creative with your moulds! You can use standard spherical ones, or try something unique like silicone cake moulds.
Crafting Process:
Mix the Dry Ingredients:
Combine 1 cup baking soda, 1/2 cup citric acid, 1/2 cup Epsom salt, and 1/2 cup cornstarch in a bowl.
Incorporate Colours and Scents:
Add a few drops of food colouring and essential oil to the mix. Blend slowly to prevent the mixture from fizzing prematurely.
Create the Perfect Consistency:
Gradually add water to the mixture while stirring until it achieves a moist sand-like texture.
Moulding:
Firmly pack the mixture into your chosen moulds. For a unique touch, consider using a Baby Feet Bath Bomb mould for a charming design.
Drying:
Let your bath bombs dry for 24-48 hours before use.
