Watermelon Bath Bombs
Learn how to make a watermelon bath bomb at home. This is a pretty bath bomb made by layering pink and green. I also added glittery poppy seeds to the pink for seeds.
I used a natural watermelon fragrance oil, but you can use a watermelon fragrance oil. I used cream of tartar so these summer bath bombs dry rock hard and have more fizz.
You will need:
- 2 cups baking soda
- 1 cup citric acid
- 1/4 cup cream of tartar
- 1/4 cup Epsom salts
- 1/4 cup powdered goat's milk or powdered milk
- 1/3 cup coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon polysorbate 80
- Red and green mica powder
- Watermelon natural fragrance oil
- 1/2 teaspoon black skin safe glitter
- 1 to 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
- Bath bomb molds
- Spray bottle with witch hazel or rubbing alcohol
- Bowls
Combine the dry ingredient: baking soda, cream of tartar, citric acid, and powdered milk. Stir to combine.
Melt the coconut oil in the microwave. Pour the melted coconut oil, polysorbate 80, and fragrance over the dry mixture.
Use gloved hands to mix it well. Spray with rubbing alcohol or witch hazel if needed. It should hold its shape and look and feel like wet sand. Avoid getting too moist.
Separate the mixture into two bowls. Add 1-2 teaspoons of pink mica to one bowl and green mica to the other one. Add more mica if desired to get the color you want. Mix well.
Mix the poppy seeds and glitter together. Pour into the pick mixture and stir well.
Add the green mixture to one half of the mold. Then add some pink on top and slightly mound the mold. Fill the other mold with pink mixture and overfill. Press the two halves together and twist slightly to form a bath bomb. Tap the mold to release the bath bomb.
Let dry for 24 hours. Store in an airtight container.
You can layer the pink and green to make fun designs.
