How to Make Epsom Salt Bath Bombs
- Using a digital scale, weigh out the dry ingredients and combine them in a large glass bowl or 8-cup Pyrex measuring cup. Mix together until all of the ingredients are evenly distributed throughout. Set aside.
- In a separate glass bowl or large container, weigh out and combine the cocoa and shea butters. Heat either in a double boiler or at 30% power in the microwave until melted. Once melted, remove from heat.
- Now weigh and add the essential oils to the melted butters. Stir to incorporate.
- Next, combine the dry and the liquid ingredients together, mixing well until all of the dry ingredients are coated and the consistency is like that of wet sand.
- You’re now ready to pack your bath bomb molds!
- To do this, pile each side of your bath bomb mold individually as high as possible without pressing the bath bomb ingredients into either side of the mold. Then, quickly and firmly press both sides of the bath bomb mold together. Twist gently to remove any excess.
- Set your Epsom salt bath bombs aside to dry overnight or for up to two days depending on the humidity in your area. Then gently unmold each bath bomb, dusting off the excess around the bath bombs as needed.
