Making a bath bomb! Using the Marks and Spencer bath bomb kit!

For Christmas I was gifted this make your own bath bomb set from Marks and Spencers, and I thought I would share with you today how it went!

The kit included:

• sodium Bicarbonate
• Citric Acid
• Epsom Salts
• Coconut Oil
• Lemon Verbena Fragrance
• Cornflower
• A pipette
• A mould

All you needed yourself was water, 2 mixing bowls and a spoon.

The method was simple – sieve all the powder ingredients into the mixing bowl and mix. Into another bowl, add the oils and water and mix thoroughly. Using the pipette, add the liquid into the dry mix gradually until it is all mixed in. Fill the mould with the mixture, carefully tip out and place the balls onto a plate to dry. These took about an hour to dry, and then they are ready to use!

Here’s how they turned out:

I will admit, they did sink abit as they were setting, but overall I think they turned out well! I have used most of these now and they give off a lovely strong lemon scent, although not really any bubbles. These were a big success, and it was a fun activity for Aaron and I to get stuck into on a Sunday afternoon.

Until next time.
