Bath Bombs Tips & Tricks
To get the most out of your DIY Bath Bomb Kit, here are some helpful tips:
- In humid environments, bath bombs will take longer to dry out. You may need to run a dehumidifier in the area to help the bath bomb dry out.
- Some people add citric acid as the last ingredient to help prevent the mixture from reacting prematurely. We haven’t had a problem with this, but if you live in a humid environment, it’s worth a try!
- We’ve gone back and forth on adding water to bath bombs as the wetting ingredients. We found that you can achieve more consistent hardness in your bath bombs by adding a small amount of water.
- If you have a little leftover mixture, you can use this to create a half bath bomb or keep it in its powder form and store it in an air-tight container for fizzy bath powder.
- Bath bombs have a good shelf life, as the ingredients won’t spoil for several months. However, the bath bomb reaction will be stronger and better when the bath bombs are used within a few weeks of being made.
- In a lot of our bath bomb recipes, we use Natrasorb bath powder. This enhances the bath bomb mold, resulting in a more enjoyable bathing experience.

Moonlit Dream Fizzy Bath Bomb
Ingredients
- From your box
1/2 cup Citric Acid
1 tsp SCI Powder
2 Tbsp Natrasorb Bath Powder
1 tsp + 1/4 tsp Indigo Blue Mica Powder
2 tsp Almond Oil
1/2 tsp Castile Soap
18 drops Sweet Dreams Essential Oil Blend
1/4 tsp Gold Mica Powder
Bath Bomb Mold
- From your home
1 cup baking soda
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 tsp water (+ more as needed)
Paint brush
Directions
- In a bowl, whisk together baking soda, cornstarch, Natrasorb, SCI Powder, Citric Acid, and 1 tsp Indigo Blue Mica Powder.
- In a small bowl, stir together water, Castile Soap, Almond Oil, and Sweet Dreams Essential Oil Blend.
- Slowly add wet ingredients to dry, stirring constantly. Mix with hands until it feels like damp sand and holds its shape when squeezed. If too dry, add ¼ tsp water at a time while stirring.
- Firmly pack the mixture into both halves of the bath bomb mold, adding an extra 1 tbsp of mixture on top of each half before pressing the halves together. Tap the mold with a spoon to release the bath bomb, then gently separate the mold. Remove the bath bomb and let dry 24-48 hours undisturbed.
- Paint & Decorate:
– In a small bowl, mix ¼ tsp Indigo Blue Mica Powder with a 1/2 tsp of Almond Oil.
– In a separate bowl, mix 1/4 tsp Yellow Gold Mica Powder with 1/2 tsp Almond Oil.
– Use a paintbrush to gently splatter or paint the bath bombs for a starry-night effect. - Let the bath bombs dry 24-48 hours in a safe place. They will be delicate until fully hardened.
- Store bath bombs in an airtight container.
- To use, drop bath bomb into a warm bath and relax as the bath bomb fizzes and releases calming essential oils. Rinse tub after use.
Notes
- First time making bath bombs? Don’t stress! They can be a little tricky at first, but even if yours crack or crumble, they’re still just as fun and fizzy in the bath. Simply sprinkle the powder into the tub for the same skin-loving, aromatic experience—no bath bomb left behind!
Things to Remember When Using This DIY Bath Bomb Kit
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.
If you are pregnant, consult your doctor prior to use.
