Supplies:

One of the best parts of bath bombs is their versatility—create endless shapes, colors, scents, and designs. Use candy molds, ice trays, popsicle molds, or heart-shaped conversation molds for perfect results.

Sift together the dry ingredients: cornstarch, citric acid, and Epsom salt. In a separate bowl, whisk the wet ingredients—coconut or almond oil and essential oils—excluding food coloring. Microwave the oil first to liquify it.

Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry, stirring until it reaches a sand-like consistency.

For multicolored or scented varieties, divide the mixture into separate bowls and mix in food coloring and essential oils.

Let the bath bombs dry for 24 to 48 hours, or until they release easily from the molds.
