Directions
Fizzy Bath Bombs, These bath bombs make fantastic gifts – they are just dropped into a hot bath & they fizz & dissolve releasing a beautiful fragrance! Surprisingly easy to make, let your imagination run WILD & experiment with different oils & colours – I also like to add dried rose petals, dried lavender & fine glitter the possibilities are endless! use heart shaped moulds, friand cake tins & round Christmas baubles for moulds Let me know your ideas! I buy the citric acid in a large bag from an Asian supermarket , I just made these with my grandsons! So fun But how much oil did everyone have to add?, I’ve made these up, they look and smell nice I had to hand mould the round ones because I couldn’t find round moulds I also used a sea shell moulded which gave wonderful results I purchased a huge bag of citric acid from the health food store (I thought I was going to have trouble finding it but I didn’t) We used individually the red, blue and yellow food colour For the scent we have used individually Rose, Jasmine, Geranium and Ylang Ylang essential oils The only problem I had was I wasn’t sure if the texture of the completed product (before it was drying) It was a slightly wet sandy texture but didn’t hold well So I added more sweet almond oil to the mixture so it could hold better I also used Rose petals with the red Rose scented balls We are planning to make more and give them away during Easter instead of chocolate Will be back to rate the review once we have used the bombs Thank you *Marli* for an interesting recipe
