How to Use Your Bath Bombs 

• Fill the tub with warm water to your desired level. Warmer water helps release the essential oils more effectively.
• Drop in the bath bomb and let it fizz.
• Let It fully dissolve, releasing its soothing scent and beneficial ingredients into the bath
• Soak and relax for at least 15–20 minutes.

Before you start, it’s a good idea to gather all your supplies. Having everything ready makes the process smoother and ensures you don’t accidentally leave anything out. Grab a large mixing bowl, a small jar with a lid, a whisk, and your molds.

First, whisk together the dry ingredients—baking soda, Epsom salt, cornstarch, citric acid, mica powder, and dried eucalyptus leaves—in a large bowl.

In a small jar, combine the sweet almond (or coconut) oil, water, and eucalyptus essential oil. Secure the lid and shake well.

Slowly pour the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking constantly to prevent any fizzing. Once everything is evenly mixed, overfill both halves of your bath bomb mold, press them together firmly, and gently twist.

Let the bath bombs set for at least 8 hours before carefully removing them from the molds. If they stick, lightly tap the sides and bottom to help release them.
