Sea Salts - Are known to cleanse, hydrate and heal your skin, as well as add texture to your bath bombs. No. Do not use bath bombs daily to prevent irritating or overdrying your skin. Instead, try other soothing tactics like fragrant candles and music to enhance your bathing experience.Sweet orange oil and tangerine oil are not considered phototoxic, according Tissarand’s Essential Oil Safety. Bowls and/or measuring cups for preparing and mixing ingredients. I use small bowls and large Pyrex measuring cups.

Adding a small amount of moisture, whether this is water, witch hazel or comes from your ingredients, you want enough that softens your mixture to bind your ingredients. It turns your powdered mixture into a snowball like consistency, allowing your ingredients to blend and hold together. Then as they dry and harden they build strength and hold together perfectly. What do bath bombs do for you? Baking soda can cause skin sensitivity and dryness, especially when used frequently (like in deodorant or as a face wash). Activated charcoal is popular in bath and body products. It’s in a variety of products from toothpaste to bath bombs and soap! (I use activated charcoal toothpaste and charcoal deodorant.) For our recipe will be using Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate Powder (SLSA) which adds amazing foaming properties to your bath bombs and is perfect when you want to add some extra life and character to your bath time. Before you start building your bath bombs you need to make sure the mixture has a snowball like consistency. From a distance spray your mixture with water and mix until you start to feel the consistency change.Citrus oils like lemon, orange, bergamot, and grapefruit are bright, cleansing, and astringent. Be careful to avoid strong, direct sunlight for a day after using most citrus oils because they can make you sensitive to UV light. Polysorbate 80 also helps keep your tub from being slippery when you use oil. I like to use oil in my bath bombs instead of a ton of witch hazel because it decreases the risk of the mixture fizzing up while you’re making your bath bombs. Oil is also nourishing for your skin and brings extra benefits to your bath.

Now you can start building your bath bombs. Sprinkle in small amounts of your colours into your mould until you are happy with your desired pattern. Remember the pink is your dominant colour so you will need to fill the middle with the pink. But it’s not just about the color. Activated charcoal is well known for absorbing toxins from the body - but I like to think it may also absorb (ahem, exorcise) a bad mood, too. Toss in a few nourishing ingredients, skin soothing minerals and essential oils, and these babies will cleanse both body and soul. According to the Environmental Working Group, Polysorbate 80 has a safety rating of 1-3, depending on how it’s used. (Lower numbers are good. For example, the EWG gives lavender oil a rating of 1.) I trust the EWG and base a lot of my purchasing decisions on their research, so if they say it’s pretty safe I’m okay with using it in my bath bombs! Cream of Tartar - Helps to bind and hold your bath bombs together and harden them, with a smoother, silky finish. Bath bombs are also used for aromatherapy and to create a spa-like experience, far more than a way to get clean, they are the perfect way to enjoy some me time. This along with the properties from the variety of ingredients used, help cleanse your body, soothe your skin and invigorate your mind. Do bath bombs make a mess?Researchers in the European Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research suggest it may draw micro-partials out of the skin. This is the “detoxing” effect of activated charcoal you hear about. Baking soda benefits for skin gram essential oil (you can add up to 4 grams, but I personally like to use less to be safe since I have a child) This is just a small selection of oils and butters, we have a much wider selection that you can browse here. We also have an extensive range of fragrance oils and essential oils, so there will certainly be a scent perfect for you!

Calamine Powder - Good for improving complexion, tightening dark spots, adding moisture and healing. Polysorbate 80 is a naturally-derived solubilizer, surfactant, and emulsifier. ( read more about it and how it’s made here) Polysorbate 80 is different from other polysorbate products, so make sure you get the “80” if you decide to buy some. Not necessarily. Take a clean shower after using bath bombs only if you see any stains or residue left by the bath bombs. Due to the nature of a bath bomb, any mess that is made, crumbs etc can easily be wiped away with a cloth and warm water.If you’re like me, you may be instantly suspicious of something with a name like “polysorbate.” So what is polysorbate 80? And why is it in these activated charcoal bath bombs?
