I need to make a bath bomb. How to make your own scented bath bombs

The bath has long ceased to be just a means of cleansing the body. Now it is more of a pleasant ritual. However, this ritual is not always as useful as it is pleasant. So beloved by many bath foam, fragrant and fluffy - a "storehouse" of all kinds of parabens, phosphates, dyes, flavors and other "benefits of civilization".

How to make DIY bath bombs

There are two ways to make bombs

The 1st cooking method is to prepare bombs without using water. In this case, we take soda (2 parts), citric acid(1 part), and any natural filler (for example, 1 part milk powder), base oil (1 part) (this can be olive, oil walnut, sea buckthorn, almond), if desired, you can add essential oils based on 1 bath 10 drops. Grind citric acid in any way (be careful - lemon dust irritates the respiratory tract!). We mix all the components, put it in any form and leave for one hour.

The 2nd cooking method is to prepare bombs using water. For cooking, we use all the same components, in this case, you can refuse to use oils or reduce the amount. We inject water 1-3 times into the mixed components from the spray gun and mix immediately. Your mass should be slightly damp and sculpted. If you overdo it with water, then a reaction will begin in your bomb, without waiting for it to get into the bathroom. We put the finished mixture into a mold, having received the mold, we take out the finished bomb and leave it to dry.

ADVICE: When making DIY bath bombs, it is best to use silicone molds as molds. Do not use plastic and rigid forms, it will be difficult to remove the mass from them.

Warm fragrant bath can relieve fatigue after a hard day's work, restore strength and help to relax. To make the adoption of water procedures as useful and enjoyable as possible, it was created a large number of cosmetics. Among them, bath bombs take pride of place. You can buy them in the store or make your own from simple ingredients. Most of necessary funds for their manufacture is present in the kitchen of every housewife.

Why is it better to make your own bath bombs?

The point of making such bombs with your own hands is not so much in saving money, but in real benefits for the health and skin of the body. The same multi-colored balls that can be found on the shelves of every large supermarket for little money contain harmful substances and dyes. For young children and allergy sufferers, they can be a potential hazard. The fact is that the composition of purchased bombs often includes soda ash, which is used to prepare rather aggressive cleaning products. Synthetic dyes and cheap substitutes are also often used. aromatic oils.

Of course, you can go to a natural cosmetics store and buy "geysers" from high-quality raw materials there. But such shops are far from being in every city and there are bombs of a lot of money there. They are produced mainly from inexpensive ingredients, and the price is often artificially high because of the name “natural”.

As you can see, the meaning of making bath bombs is:

• firstly, you will always know what you put there;
• secondly, you save money and buy only ingredients for cooking;
• thirdly, you have an excellent opportunity to dream up with the components and use only those ingredients that are right for you;
• fourth, you can do with my own hands great gift for a loved one.

Using dried rose flowers, you can make incredibly beautiful and fragrant bombs.

Crafting Ingredients

There are many recipes for making homemade bombs, but most of them start with cooking classical basis. You will need the following components:

• baking soda;
• lemon acid;
• base oil (olive, coconut, wheat germ oil, etc.).

Only two ingredients are responsible for the "gurgling" effect - soda and citric acid. Dissolving in water, they interact with each other and the well-known chemical reaction begins. Essential oils, flavors, ground coffee, dried herbs and petals are responsible for the aroma. Fillers with a caring effect are also used: potato or corn starch, dry cream or milk, sea salt. Color is provided by food dyes, colored sea salt, coffee, cocoa, etc.

Many recipes indicate that it is better to grind citric acid into powder. Since it is volatile and can irritate mucous membranes, it is recommended to wear a protective mask while grinding. The lid of the coffee grinder is also not opened immediately, but they are waiting for the caustic dust to settle.

Table: variations of ingredients for making bombs at home

Additional components:	Polysorbate-80	White, colored dry clay	-

The base oil is used as a binding agent. Without it, it will not be possible to mold a bomb from soda, citric acid and fillers. In addition, it cares for the skin, nourishes and moisturizes it. The best base oil to use is wheat germ oil. It is light, quickly absorbed by the skin and does not clog pores. You can also use other oils as the main or additional component: grape seed, almond, jojoba, macadamia, cocoa, sea buckthorn, etc.

For beneficial aromatherapy, it is better to use only high-quality natural essential oils. You can also use food and cosmetic flavors that you can buy in soap shops.

Not recommended to use mineral oils and synthetic essential oils. They are often the culprit of allergic reactions and can adversely affect your skin and health.

Water is used rarely and in small quantities, usually for making bombs with a small amount of oil. The fact is that under the influence of moisture, soda and acid immediately begin to interact and you risk spoiling your creation at the very beginning. Water is added with a fine atomizer from a short distance. The ingress of large drops of water can cause a reaction and the bomb will not work.

Such small bath balls are used as decoration.

Dried cream and milk are added to soften the skin while bathing. Since they are undesirable for oily and problem skin, it is better to replace them with corn or potato starch. Sea salt nourishes the skin useful minerals and has a beneficial effect on the body as a whole. Also healing properties has clay (kaolin), which can be purchased at a pharmacy. Dried petals and herbs additionally saturate the water with aromas and turn bathing into a real pleasure.

Polysorbate (emulsifier) ​​and foaming agent "Luminous Foam" can be found in a specialty store for the preparation of cosmetics. They are not required components. Thanks to polysorbate, the oil will not form a greasy film on the surface of the water and the walls of the bath, but will completely dissolve. The foaming agent will be needed to obtain foam during the bubbling of the geyser bomb.

With the Fluffy Foam Maker you can make a foaming geyser bomb

Dyes are purely decorative. If you are afraid of the occurrence of allergies or you are just an opponent of various "chemistry", then you can do without them. The same petals, herbs, zest and coffee can give the bombs a beautiful color without harm to health. Never use pigments of dubious quality or not intended for the preparation of cosmetics.

For dyeing bombs desired color do not use artistic paints (gouache, acrylic, etc.). They can clog pores, stain the tub and body, and cause severe allergic reactions.

You will not need dyes if you add this colored salt to the mixture

In addition to the ingredients for cooking, you will also need:

• bomb molds;
• a small deep bowl (preferably glass or porcelain);
• gloves;
• a tablespoon for measuring ingredients and kneading;
• beaker;
• electronic kitchen scales;
• coffee grinder or mortar for grinding;
• fine spray (for water);
• food film.

You can buy a mold in a specialty soap shop. You can also find bath beads, fragrances for cosmetics and a foaming agent there. Instead of special molds, you can use chocolate candy trays, ice molds, pastry spoons for cutting balls, cupcake molds and much more. If you don't care about the appearance of the bombs, then blind them with your hands like snowballs.

This is what happens when you put fresh or dried flowers on the bottom of the mold

A coffee grinder and mortar will be needed to grind ingredients such as citric acid and sea salt. The smaller the components, the better their adhesion to each other will be. Gloves are used to protect hands from burning during work. The fact is that citric acid, upon direct contact, can irritate sensitive skin and cause burning in places of abrasions, hangnails and wounds. But while taking a bath using such a homemade bomb, citric acid dissolves in a large amount of water and does not adversely affect the skin.

Since essential oils tend to "exhale" over time, each finished bomb should be wrapped in cling film or placed in a closed airtight bag. Ready "pops" are stored in a dry place.

Bath beads can beautifully decorate effervescent balls You can use square ice molds Dried herbs will give the bombs a beautiful aroma, and cream - softening properties. Use dried rose petals and herbs instead of dyes Instead of purchased forms, you can use halves from a chocolate egg

How to make different types of bombs at home: recipes with photos

All recipes differ in the components used, the desired effects and smells, as well as fillers (salt, petals, coffee, etc.). You can prepare "geysers" for children with a minimum number of ingredients, no artificial colors, and only those essential oils that rarely cause allergic reactions.

Classic oil bomb without water

Starch or sea salt can be used as a filler. Salt crystals are quite large, so they are first ground in a coffee grinder or mortar.

Ingredients are for 3 balls. You will need:

• baking soda - 4 tbsp. l.;
• citric acid - 2 tbsp. l.;
• sea ​​salt - 2 tbsp. l.;
• base oil (from wheat germ or whatever) - 1 tbsp. l.;
• flavoring - 10 drops;
• liquid food coloring - 10 drops;
• bomb shape.

If you wish, you can use an emulsifier, but then you need to take half a tablespoon of oil and the same amount of emulsifier.

Cooking instructions:

1. Prepare all ingredients and put on gloves.

   First you need to mix citric acid, soda and salt

A properly prepared mixture should be well sculpted and be in consistency, like wet sand. Also, the bombs are not dried in the oven - this can cause them to crack and crumble.

Instead of flavorings, you can use essential oils, then the bombs will be more natural. In this case, it is also worth abandoning emulsifiers and dyes. To color the mixture in a beautiful color, use ground coffee, grated lemon and orange zest, chopped petals and herbs.

You can also make two-color and even multi-colored bombs. Just divide the base mixture into parts and color in different colors. Fill the halves as you wish. You can layer mixtures to make striped balls, or simply fill each half with one color.

By combining colors, you can make bright and beautiful "pops" for bathing.

If the bombs do not mold well and crumble, then you can use ethyl alcohol to moisten the mixture. It is volatile, unlike water, it slowly reacts with soda and acid. Alcohol is poured into a fine spray bottle and the mixture is sprayed.

Here is a review from the creator of this wonderful recipe, who lives in Germany:

The recipe was born for a very long time, and the solution was found unexpectedly and simply. It turned out that to find in Germany baking soda and citric acid is not so easy. At first I settled on a baking powder for dough (almost the same soda) and thought that citric acid could be replaced with vitamin C and ... and then it dawned on me! Vitamin C is sold in effervescent tablets (like the new aspirin) and not only it, but also calcium, magnesium, multivitamin with all vitamin options and many, many more useful and most importantly effervescent! And what is important is that in our country all this stuff is sold for a penny in any supermarket and pharmacy.
