What’s in This Fizzing Bath Recipe?
Citric Acid
Citric Acid creates that delightful fizzy reaction when the powder meets water. This effervescent effect adds a whimsical touch to your bath and enhances the overall sensory experience. Imagine watching your bath fizz excitedly, releasing enchanting scents and sweet relaxation!
Fractionated Coconut Oil
Fractionated Coconut Oil is a magical ingredient that moisturizes and enhances the entire bath experience. This luxuriant oil deeply nourishes your skin, leaving it feeling soft, smooth, and wonderfully hydrated. Additionally, fractionated coconut oil is a perfect medium to dilute essential oils, ensuring their aromatic benefits are evenly dispersed throughout your bath.
Sleepy Essential Oil Blend
Our Sleepy Essential Oil Blend offers a blissful combination of fruity and sweet aromas that calm and center your mind. This enchanting blend aims to help you unwind after a long day and prepare you for a restful night’s sleep. As the blend disperses in warm water, it releases a gentle fragrance that soothes your senses, creating a tranquil atmosphere.
Baking Soda
Baking Soda is a key player in our recipe, working in harmony with citric acid to create that mesmerizing fizzing action when it encounters water. Additionally, baking soda is known for its soothing properties, helping to calm and soften the skin.
Natrasorb Bath Powder 🛒 or Cornstarch
Natrasorb Bath Powder is a fantastic ingredient that plays a crucial role in this fairy dust recipe. This fluffy powder distributes oils evenly across the tub. It slows down the reaction between the baking soda, citric acid, and water, extending the fizzing magic for a longer, more enchanting experience. If Natrasorb Bath Powder is unavailable, cornstarch is an excellent alternative.
Mica Powder (optional)* 🛒
Mica Powder adds a splash of color to your bath experience. Available in a rainbow of hues, mica powder allows you to personalize your bath fizzies, making them as vibrant or serene as you desire. This shimmering powder transforms the bathwater into a colorful wonderland and enhances the overall visual appeal of your bath fizzies.
Things to Remember When Using This Recipe
Always dilute an essential oil when using it on the skin. This essential oil recipe is unlikely to cause skin irritation when diluted properly. If the oil has oxidized (been left with the cap off for long periods of time,) it is more likely to cause skin irritation. Check out this dilution chart for diluting this essential oil properly.
