Non-Toxic Bath Bombs
This post is a long time comming. The kiddos and I made these non-toxic fat bombs to put into their Valentine’s for friends. My kiddos are obssessed with bath bombs but after reading the ingredients in some of them I figured we should make out own so I could feel good about what they are bathing in.
It’s super easy. Here is how we did it….
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup citric acid
- 1/4 cup baking soda
- 2 TBS potato starch or arrowroot powder (we used potato starch)
- 3 TBS melted coconut oil
- 1-2 drops of natural food dye
- 10-20 drops essential oils of choice (I really like lavendar, perspective, orange, and balance)
- Silicon molds (we used these heart molds)
Directions:
1.) Mix all your dry ingredients in one medium sized bowl.
2.) Mix all your wet ingredients in another medium sized bowl.
3.) Add your dry ingredients to your wet ingredients.
4.) You can use a spoon to mix all your ingredients but this works best if you really work it together with your hands to get it all mixed completly.
5.) Press your mixture into the silicon molds. Be sure to press the mixture in nice and tight so that it wont crumble when you pop them out of the molds later.
6.) Let the bath bombs sit and dry.
7.) Once dry you can pop the bath bombs out of the silicon molds and put them into a mason jar or other air tight container until you want to use them.
8.) Throw them in the tub when you are ready for a fun and relaxing bath.
