1 cup baking soda 1/2 cup cornstarch 1/2 cup citric acid 1/8 cup epsom salts (optional) *witch hazel in a spray bottle various essential oils & dried herbs Sift all dry ingredients in a glass bowl. Add essential oils (about 10-20 drops per recipe - *see below for blends*) Spray 3 times with witch hazel and mix well. Keep spraying the mix until it clumps when you squeeze it in your hands, but make sure it is not wet. Add dried herbs if using. Press firmly into moulds (ice cube trays, soap moulds...) Let sit one minute in mould, then carefully take them out and place on wax paper. If your house/appartment is humid, remember to place a clean tea towel over the bombs and place under a fan. This will prevent the bombs from activating. Let dry 24-48 hours. Sleepytime: 5 drops Chamomile 10 drops lavender (use 2 tbsps of dried lavender) Morning Fresh: 6 drops lemongrass 15 drops Petitgrain or Neroli (use dried lemongrass or dried lemon peel) If you don't have a bath bomb mold, you can use an Easter egg instead. The bath bombs look so cute! and a great Easter basket filler
