Indulge With The Following Recipes:
DIY BUBBLE BARS
Ingredients:
-
1/4 cup Cream of Tartar
-
1/2 cup Cocamide DEA (for foaming)
-
1/4 cup Shea Butter (Refined)
-
10-15 drops Essential Oil (Peppermint, Lemon, or Lavender)
-
Food Colouring (optional)
Instructions:
-
Combine the SLS needles, cream of tartar, and cocamide DEA in a mixing bowl.
-
Melt the shea butter and mix in the essential oils and food colouring.
-
Slowly add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously to avoid activating the fizz.
-
Press into molds or shape by hand into fun bars.
-
Let dry for 12-24 hours before using in your bath for a bubbly, luxurious experience.
How to Use:
-
Fill your bathtub with warm running water.
-
Take one bubble bar and break off a chunk (about 1/3 to 1/2 of the bar), depending on how many bubbles you want.
-
Crumble the piece directly under the running tap — this helps activate the foaming agents and create maximum bubbles.
-
Once the tub is full, swish the water with your hand to boost the bubbles.
-
Step in, relax, and enjoy your foamy, fragrant soak.
DIY BATH BOMB
Ingredients (makes 4–6 medium bombs):
-
1/2 cup Citric Acid
-
1/2 cup Arrowroot Powder
-
1/4 cup Epsom Salt (optional, for soothing muscles)
-
2 1/2 tbsp Coconut Oil, Melted (or Shea Butter)
-
1 tsp Water
-
15–20 drops Essential Oil (Lavender, Tea Tree, or Lemon are popular)
-
A few drops Food Colouring (optional)
Instructions:
-
In a large bowl, mix the baking soda, citric acid, cornstarch, and Epsom salt.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, water, essential oil, and food colouring.
-
Slowly drizzle the wet mix into the dry mix while stirring continuously. (Go slowly to avoid the fizz activating too early.)
-
The texture should feel like damp sand — it should clump when pressed in your hand.
-
Pack the mixture tightly into bath bomb moulds (or use a muffin tin if you don’t have moulds).
-
Let them dry at room temperature for 24 hours, then gently unmould.
Tip: Lavender helps you unwind, Lemon refreshes your senses, and Tea Tree offers a purifying aroma.
