BATH BOMB RECIPE
- 15ml Fragrance OR 7.5ml Essential oil (Please refer to the specific fragrance under fragrances as ratios do vary for each fragrance used)
- 15ml Witch Hazel
- 15ml Polysorbate 80
- 3/4 cup of Epsom Salt
- 1 1/2 cup of Citric Acid
- 3 cups of Bi-Carb Soda
- Around 2 Teaspoons of Mica powder ( More or less can be added depending on the colour you want to achieve)
- Bath Bomb mould
- Bowl
- Whisk
- Jar
- Sift
Combine all wet ingredients together in a jar and stir to combine.
Combine all dry ingredients together in a bowl, using a sift to make sure there are no lumps, then whisk all dry ingredients together. You also add the Mica powder into the dry ingredients.
Slowly add the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients (about a teaspoon at a time), crumbling with your fingers after each add, making sure that it is properly combined before you add anymore to stop the chemical reaction from happening.
When it is all combined, start packing the mixture into a bath bomb mould and pack tightly in each side. Put both sides together and make sure they are overfilled so that they latch onto the other side. Let the mould dry then slowly pull the mould off of the bath bomb. Work quickly to ensure your mixture doesn't become dry.
