Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 8 hours 10 minutes
Servings 3 -4 bath bombs

Ingredients
  

  • 3 - 4 plastic ornaments
  • 3 tbsp. epsom salt
  • 1/2 cup citric acid
  • 1 cup baking soda
  • 1/2 cup corn starch
  • 2 tsp. almond oil
  • 15 drops lemon essential oil
  • 10 drops orange essential oil
  • 10 drops vanilla essential oil
  • a few drops of yellow food dye

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the epsom salt, baking soda, citric acid, and cornstarch by whisking thoroughly. Set the bowl aside for later.
  • In a smaller bow, mix together the almond oil and essential oils. Stir until completely mixed.
  • Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry (the almond oil to the large bowl of epsom salt and baking soda.) Stir until all the ingredients are evenly mixed.
  • Separate the mixture in half and place one half in a separate bowl.
  • In one bowl, add a tiny amount of yellow food dye and mix it thoroughly. Continue to add additional dye until you get a gorgeous lemon yellow color. It shouldn't take much!
  • Put on some gloves, grab a handful of 1 color of your mixture and squeeze it in your hand to see if it holds together. If it doesn't, use a mister bottle to give your mixture a tiny spritz of water. Mix again thoroughly and see if it will hold together now.
  • Whatever you do, don't add more than 1 spritz of water at a time. If your mixture begins to fizz. Throw it out and start over.
  • Once the mixture can hold together, begin layering the colors back and forth into a mold. Add a layer of yellow, then a layer of white.
  • Fill each side of the mold, then press the 2 halves together and seal it. Repeat this process again until you have used all of your bath bomb mixture.
  • Allow bath bombs to dry overnight. Carefully remove bath bombs from the plastic molds. If they are not fully hardened allow them to dry further.
  • To use: drop into a warm bath and watch it fizz!
