Supplies to make DIY Doughnut Bath Bombs
- 1 cup baking soda
- ½ cup citric acid
- ½ cup corn starch
- 3 tbsp Epsom salt
- 3 tsp coconut oil, melted
- Small spray bottle of Witch Hazel
- 15 drops of essential oil
- Coloring – I made some pink and some chocolate colors
- Sprinkles
- Goat’s milk soap base, melted
Tools Needed
- Doughnut pan
- Large bowl
- Whisk
- Spoon
- Spray bottle
Directions to make Doughnut Bath Bombs
In a large bowl, mix together the baking soda, citric acid, cornstarch, and Epsom salts. (I found some lavender Epsom salts! Double dose of lavender – yay!)
If you are doing different colors of doughnuts – divide your mixture up.
Add coloring slowly. You don’t want it to fizz! Pour in melted coconut oil and add your lavender essential oils. Mix well.
In a spray bottle, add witch hazel. Lightly mist a few times until it will hold its shape. Go sparingly with the witch hazel – you won’t need much!
Lightly spray your doughnut pan with non-stick spray. Press your mixture into the mold and allow it to sit overnight. (If you don’t have overnight, letting them sit for several hours should do the trick as well!)
In a bowl, melt some goat’s milk soap base according to package instructions. Dip the top of the doughnut into the soap and set it to dry. It won’t take long!
Redip your doughnuts again and immediately add sprinkles. We used rainbow sprinkles. Let them sit until dry and fully set. It shouldn’t take longer than 10-15 minutes. ENJOY!!
