How to Make These Easter Egg Bath Bombs
Step One: Mix ingredients in the bowl, and then add food coloring to the mixture. If you want to do different colors divide the bath bomb mixture in different bowls.
Step Two: Next you will add dried flowers or sprinkles if you want.
Step Three: Press the bath bomb into the plastic eggs, and gently press together. Do not click the eggs together, or it will break the bath bombs.
Step Four: Let the bombs dry overnight, and then carefully remove from plastic eggs.
MUST KNOW TIP
***Very important tip: When you press the halves of the plastic Easter egg together, do not click them together, or when you separate them, you’ll break the bath bomb. Press the halves almost together, and it will work perfectly!! That small crack in between the halves will allow the egg to dry completely inside.
How to Use Bath Bombs
Run your bath as normal and then drop in an egg and let it fizzle and color your bath water. Depending on the essential oils you use, the aroma can be very relaxing, refreshing, and soothe your skin.
Have fun with these bath bombs. These Easter egg shaped bath bombs are great for kids, teens, and adults.
What Makes Bath Bombs Fizz?
The citric acid in the bath bomb mixture is what causes the bath bombs to fizz when they hit water. You want to make sure your acid is not expired or you will run the risk of them not fizzing as you would like.
How to Store Egg Bath Bombs
Store your eggs in an airtight container, bag, in a cool dry place. You do not want moisture to get on the bath bombs or it can affect them greatly in terms of being fizzy for your bath.
To gift these, you can place in single serve bags and tie some ribbon on them. That would really dress up the bath bombs. Or place in an Easter basket!
