Bath bombs are taking the world by storm! But sadly most are full of weirdo ingredients that you absolutely don't want to soak your delicate bits in!
A very popular brand on the market includes ingredients like Sodium Laureth Sulfate (read about this ingredient here: https://davidsuzuki.org/queen-of-green/dirty-dozen-sodium-laureth-sulfate/) and Propylene Glycol (read about this ingredient here: https://draxe.com/nutrition/propylene-glycol/).
It also lists "perfume" which can be a concoction of hundreds of toxic chemicals. No thanks!
So here's a super simple recipe that works wonderfully as you can see in this video:
Ingredients & equipment
- Ice sphere moulds from Kmart or Target
- 1 cup bicarb soda
- 1/2 cup citric acid
- 1/2 cup Epsom salts (I use Magnesium Sulphate that you can buy from Stockfeed suppliers)
- 3 tsps EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)
- 5-10 drops essential oils
- Spray bottle of filtered water
Instructions
- In a glass or stainless steel bowl combine bicarb soda, citric acid & Epsom salts
- Whisk to combine
- Add essential oils
- Whisk to combine
- Add EVOO and 2 sprays of water (on mist)
- Whisk to combine and place mixture in moulds quickly
- Allow to dry for 24 hours before removing from moulds
Makes 12 bombs
