Bath Bombs

Natural Bubble Bomb Recipe

Create your own effervescent bubble bombs with this simple, all-natural recipe. Perfect for a soothing bath experience, these bubble bombs are packed with skin-loving ingredients and none of the harsh chemicals found in commercial products.

Ingredients:
- 1 cup organic sodium bicarbonate (natural cleanser and water softener)
- 1/2 cup citric acid (for fizz)
- 1/2 cup corn starch (to bind everything together)
- 1/4 cup Epsom salt (for a relaxing soak)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted, for moisture)
- 1/4 cup castile soap (unscented, for bubbles)
- 15-20 drops of your favorite essential oil(s) (lavender for relaxation, eucalyptus for revitalizing, or chamomile for soothing)
- Natural dyes (optional, for colour)
- Dried flowers or herbs (optional, for added bath benefits and aesthetics)

Tools:
- Mixing bowl
- Whisk
- Moulds 
- Spoon

Instructions:

1. Mix Dry Ingredients In a large mixing bowl, combine sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, corn starch, and Epsom salt. Whisk until well mixed and free of clumps.

2. Add Wet Ingredients: Slowly pour the melted coconut oil, castile soap, and essential oils into the dry mixture. If using, add natural colour here. Mix everything together quickly to avoid activating the fizz. The mixture should hold together when squeezed without crumbling. If it's too dry, add a tiny bit more coconut oil.

3. Incorporate Extras: If you've chosen to add dried flowers or herbs, gently fold them into the mixture now.

4. Mould: Press the mixture firmly into your moulds. Our aluminium moulds are easy to work with and release the bubble bombs once they're set.

5. Dry: Leave the bubble bombs in the moulds for at least 24 hours in a cool, dry place to harden. If you're in a hurry, you can carefully remove them from the molds and let them air dry on a flat surface.

6. Enjoy: Once dry, drop one into your bath water, watch it fizz and release soothing bubbles and scents. Store extras in a dry, airtight container.

Tips:
- Experiment with different essential oil blends to find your favourite scent combination.
- The addition of natural colour and dried botanicals can make these bubble bombs a lovely gift.
- Always do a patch test with new ingredients to ensure you don't have an allergic reaction.

Enjoy your all-natural, homemade bubble bombs for a luxurious and relaxing bath experience!
