There’s nothing better than a relaxing warm bath at the end of a long day, and what better way to enhance that already heavenly experience than with bath bombs. The gentle fizz, swirling colors, fragrant scents, and soothing oils leave your skin feeling smooth <\/span>\u2014<\/span> like you\u2019re getting the luxury spa treatment you deserve. But do you know what\u2019s actually in those magical little spheres? Often what makes them smell so intoxicating are various\u00a0chemicals and perfume oils (which are mildly toxic and potentially harmful to you)<\/a>. But they’re often just labelled as \u201cfragrance\u201d, so you rarely know what is actually soaking into your skin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And why pay $9 a pop for a toxic bath bomb? Especially when you can enjoy the same experience (without presenting your body to a potential health hazard) simply by using all-natural DIY bath bombs <\/span>\u2014 ones <\/span>that you can make in minutes and in the comfort of your own home! I\u2019ve found a great easy-to-make recipe for you, and the base items you\u2019ll really need are Epsom salts, coconut oil, baking soda, and citric acid. Then you can experiment with adding different essential oils to make the perfect healthy bath bomb for yourself, or even as a great gift for a friend. So try out this recipe, and bombs away! Your body (and wallet) will thank you \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n
