Bath bombs are a luxurious addition to any bath, offering not only a soothing aroma but also a splash of colour. Creating your own bath bombs at home can be a satisfying project, allowing you to customise scents and colours to your personal liking. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps to craft your own delightful bath bombs.
Ingredients You'll Need
To make delightful bath bombs at home, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup of baking soda
- 1/2 cup of citric acid
- 1/2 cup of Epsom salt
- 1/2 cup of cornstarch
- 2-3 teaspoons of water
- 2-3 teaspoons of essential oils (e.g., lavender, eucalyptus, or rose)
- A few drops of food colouring (optional)
- Silicone moulds
Step-by-Step Process
Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the baking soda, citric acid, Epsom salt, and cornstarch. Mix well to ensure there are no clumps.
Prepare the Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, combine the water with your chosen essential oils. If you want your bath bombs coloured, add a few drops of food colouring to this mixture.
Combine the Ingredients
Slowly add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, a few drops at a time. Use your hands to mix everything together. The consistency should be like damp sand that holds together when squeezed.
Mould Your Bath Bombs
Firmly pack the mixture into silicone moulds. If you don't have silicone moulds, muffin tins can work as well. Once moulded, let the bath bombs dry for at least 24 hours.
Store Your Creations
Once fully dried, carefully remove them from the moulds. Store your bath bombs in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
