They are so simple to make. \u00a0Shower Bombs are made from Baking Soda, Water, and Essential Oils (particularly Eucalyptus, Peppermint, and Lavender). \u00a0You are supposed to take a hot shower and place the Aromatherapy Shower Bomb\u00a0<\/strong>in the corner of your shower so that is slowly breaks down and releases the oil vapors in the steamy shower.<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/h3>\n
\n
    \n
  • 1<\/span>\u00a0cup<\/span>\u00a0Baking Soda<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 1\/4<\/span>\u00a0cup<\/span>\u00a0to 1\/3 cup water<\/span>\u00a0depending on your humidity<\/span><\/li>\n
  • **3-4 drops of high-quality Essential Oils<\/span>\u00a0Add these at the VERY end of the process for best results<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n

    Instructions<\/h2>\n
    \n
      \n
    1. \n
      Add the baking soda to a bowl and slowly add the water while stirring constantly. \u00a0Add just enough water (between 1\/4 and 1\/3 cup of water) to make a thick paste.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    2. \n
      When you grab a handful of the paste, it should hold its shape when you squeeze it in your hand and should feel more dry than wet.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    3. \n
      Do not add too much water. \u00a0If you do\u2026just add a little more baking soda to the mix.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    4. \n
      Fill your molds (silicone flexible molds are the best so they can be removed easily as they can be a little crumbly) with the paste. \u00a0Pack them down tightly. \u00a0Let dry completely (this is crucial). \u00a0Mine took a couple of days to get a nice solid shape. \u00a0Or bake them in a low-temperature oven (if your mold is oven safe) at 200 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes. \u00a0Let cool.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    5. \n
      I used a mold – silicone works best!<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    6. \n
      Carefully remove from molds and store in an airtight container. \u00a0Humidity will cause them to break down.\u00a0 It should be good up to a few weeks if stored correctly.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    7. \n
      **Add the essential oils to the shower bombs right before use in the shower or bath for best results!<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n

      Enjoy a relaxing shower one of these babies!<\/p>\n
