Ingredients

  • ½ cup baking soda
  • ¼ cup citric acid
  • ¼ cup shea butter, almond oil, and epsom salts mixture (see link)
  • ¼ cup corn starch
  • ¼ cup dried calendula petals
  • 1 tbsp sweet almond oil
  • 1 tsp water
  • 14 drops calendula essential oil
  • 10 drops chamomile essential oil

Instructions

  • Add the baking soda, citric acid, epsom salts, and cornstarch to a medium bowl, and stir with the whisk for 2-3 minutes until the dry ingredients are completely combined.
  • Add the calendula petals and stir in.
  • Pour the sweet almond oil, water, and essential oils into a small jar, and secure the lid. Shake the jar vigorously to combine the liquid ingredients.
  • Very slowly, whisk the liquid into the dry mixture, whisking the entire time, so as not to activate the fizzing properties in the bath bombs.
  • Scoop the mixture into each half of the bath bomb mold, then press together, and give a quick twist.
  • Allow the bath bombs to set for 6-8 hours. Remove from the molds, and store in an airtight container.
