DIY Bath Bombs

These natural do-it-yourself bath bombs make any bath a lavish and relaxing spa experience. They’re perfect for Valentine’s Day, or as a handmade gift for any occasion.

Ingredients
½ cup cornstarch
1 cup baking soda
½ cup Citric Acid
2 teaspoons Liquid Coconut Oil
optional dried flowers or herbs
¾ teaspoon water
Directions
  1. In bowl, stir together dry ingredients: cornstarch, baking soda, citric acid, (and dried flowers or herbs if using) breaking up lumps.

  2. Separately, mix together the wet ingredients: liquid coconut oil, water and essential oils.

  3. Combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing very thoroughly. The mixture should be the consistency of fine, moist sand when you squeeze the mixture in your palm (TIP: If the mixture crumbles too easily, you can use a spray bottle to spritz water gradually to desired consistency.)

  4. If using dried flowers or herbs, place some in the bottom of each mold.

  5. Fill each mold with the damp powder mixture, pressing everything in the mixture down firmly.

  6. Allow the molds to sit overnight to dry and harden before removing from the molds. 

  7. For a fragrant and calming spa experience, add one bath bomb to your bath - or give away as memorable gifts!
