Here is my recipe for bath salts.

* 2 cups epsom salt
* 1/2 cup baking soda
* 1/2 cup non-fat powdered milk
* 1/2 cup corn starch
* 1/2 cup calgon water softener
* 1 dram essence oil

Mix in plastic ziplock bag. Pour into jars or make personal envelopes filled with the bath salts for a 1 time experience :)

Ingredients:

* 3/4 cup bicarbonate soda
* 1/4 cup citric acid
* 12 drops of lemon essential oil
* 1 teaspoon sweet almond oil
* 30 drops of yellow food coloring
* 4 soap moulds.

Step 1. All equipment must be dry before starting of the baths bombs will start fizzing.
step 2. In a bowl mix the bicarbonate and citric acid.
Step 3. Put 1/4 of the mixture into a medium bowl and put to the side.
Step 4. In a smaller bowl put mix the lemon essential oil and the yellow food colouring.
Step 5. Pour 1/4 of the oil mixture into the medium sized bowl. Stir quickly so the mixture doesn't start to fizz. With your fingers until the mixture stays compressed when squeezed. Wipe some extra almond oil in the inside of the mould and the press the bath bomb into it.
Step 6. Repeat the steps to make the remaining bath bombs. Then take the bath bombs out of the mould. Leave for 24 hours before using.

I hope you enjoy my bath bomb recipe.
