GLI:N homemade Recipe: Bath Bomb

This week you will learn how to make a Bath Bomb.

Ingredients:
1 cup of baking soda
1 cup of powdered citric acid
½ cup of cornstarch

 ⅓ cup finely ground Epsom salts
 ¼ cup powdered milk
 2 tablespoons of olive oil
2 tablespoons melted cocoa butter
1 tablespoon water
essential oils (up to 6 -10 drops)
food coloring ( 2-4 drops)


Process:

Mix the baking soda, citric acid, cornstarch, Epsom salts, and powdered milk well. 

Add the wet ingredients.

Slowly pour in the olive oil and cocoa butter, mixing gently with your hands.

Use a spray bottle to add lukewarm water until the dough is solid enough to be compacted.

Don’t add too much moisture though, as this will cause the dough to begin fizzing before it is even finished.

Add your color and scent. Use up to 6 -10 drops, knowing that the scent will be a bit stronger when added to the warm bath water.

You can additionally choose to add food coloring to the mix.

Put the dough in molds.

Be sure to press firmly so that the dough sticks well and doesn’t form cracks when dried.

Let the bath bombs dry out. Place the dough in the molds in an area that is cool and dry for at least 24 hours.

Store the bath bombs. Place all of the bath bombs in a sealable container away from moisture.
