Relaxing Lavender Bath Bombs
Homemade bath bombs are an easy treat that you can enjoy yourself or make as a gift. They are made from common, budget-friendly ingredients most of which you probably already have at home. Bath bombs have become a hugely popular product to brighten at-home self care. They make bath time fun for kids and relaxing for adults. This DIY Bath Bomb recipe allows you to enjoy the luxury at home without the expensive price tag. Most of the ingredients in bath bombs can be found in your kitchen already.
This recipe has everything you need to relax after a long day. It’s made with lavender 40/42 essential oil, borage oil, and Epsom salt. The dried lavender on top is a simple finishing touch that makes the bath bombs perfectly giftable. Borage oil is lightweight and has amazing skin-loving properties. To help it mix into your bath, we added a bit of polysorbate 80. It’s an emulsifier that helps the oil mix into the water rather than pooling on top. It’s an optional ingredient, but we love the way it makes the water feel.
