Starting a bath bomb business from home
Posted on Jun 26th 2021
They're tremendously well known. Bath bombs have become an overall pattern over the most recent couple of years and a mainstay in individuals' self-care routines. Furthermore, they do not indicate easing back down: given Google Trends, searches for "bath bomb" and related terms have consistently increased during the past five years.
How to make bath bombs?
When you have selected what kind of bath bomb you need to make, it's time to start making them.
Collect the ingredients and supplies:
Bath bombs are surprisingly easy to make and require a couple of fundamental things. While you can change out a portion of these ingredients to alter your bath bombs, the basic formula for one batch of bath bombs include:
One cup baking soda
Half cup of citric acid
Half cup of Epsom salt
Half cup of cornstarch
A quarter teaspoon of water
Two tsp essential oil (lavender, eucalyptus, rose, orange, and lemongrass are well known for the bath)
Two tsp carrier oil (jojoba, sweet almond, coconut, olive, or even infant oil)
Two tsp of shea butter for an extra saturating "butter" batch bomb
A couple of drops of food coloring
TIP: Purchase silicone molds that are utilized for baking or for freezing ice into different shapes. These hold up well during the creation cycle, are easily cleaned, and can assist you with making numerous items in a single batch.
Step by step instructions:
Step 1: Except for citric acid, blend the dry ingredients in a vast blending bowl.
Step 2: In another blending bowl, pour all the liquid ingredients and mix.
Step 3: Pour the liquid blend into the bowl of dry ingredients, and quickly mix. Gradually include the citric acid and keep mixing. You will likely notify a slight bubbling response on account of the citric acid. No compelling reason to panic—this is normal.
Step 4: Pack the combination into your picked forms firmly. You can pack the molds somewhat and utilize a spoon or glass to press the blend in as firmly as could be expected.
Step 5: After freezing, eliminate the bath bombs from the molds and ta-da! If you do not plan to sell them immediately, store them in sealed holders like plastic or glass Tupperware.
