Few women refuse to soak in the bathroom. The process is actually very pleasant, but, unfortunately, not always useful. For example, bath foam often makes the bathing procedure harmful to the skin. But wishing to take a bath with foam from this does not become less. We offer you a more gentle, but no less pleasant tool - bomb-geysers. Or rather, recipes for bath bombs. Do you know that this exclusive product can easily be prepared at home? Let's find out how to do it, and at the same time get acquainted with some recipes for bombs.

The basic (basic) recipe

Whichever bomb you plan to make, it will always be based on a basic recipe with some permanent and some non-permanent ingredients. The composition of any bomb includes:

• Citric acid (in powder or in granules);
• Drinking soda;
• Salt (sea or cooked);
• Dyes;
• Fillers.

The main and unchangeable components are lemonacid and drinking (food) soda. In any recipe, their ratio should be 1: 2. That is, two parts of soda you take one part of the citric acid. It is these ingredients that make the bombs sizzle and bubble, like geysers. All other components are taken in an arbitrary amount. Salt makes up the bulk of the bomb, essential oils or perfume fragrances are added for flavor, dyes, it is clear, for color, and fillers for decor (to a greater extent). How to make such a bomb? We measure the required number of components with a measuring cup, a tablespoon or electronic scales. We pour out soda and citric acid in absolutely dry utensils or a bowl of a blender and we crush practically in powder. By the way, for this purpose, an ordinary coffee grinder or a traditional mortar with a pestle is also suitable. The smaller these ingredients are, the more spectacular and longer the bomb will sputter, opening up in the bath. Important! Do not allow the mixture to humidify at this stage. Otherwise, the reaction will begin much earlier than you make a bomb. Also grind all other ingredients except filler and liquid dyes. Now gently combine both mixtures and mix them thoroughly. Important! If your hands have wounds or cracks, then you should use rubber gloves. Now add a few drops of essential oil or perfume fragrance and dyes to your semi-finished product and mix again. Then follows the most crucial stage. You need to lightly moisten the resulting mixture, bringing it to the consistency of wet sand. Then you can form a mixture of bombs. Take a teaspoon and pour into a bowl about a third of the water placed in it and quickly mix the mixture. We type in the palm of a little mass and squeeze. If it, like wet sand, gathers in a lump and keeps the shape, we proceed to the formation of bombs. By the way, the suspects can be put directly into the mixture, and you can put them on the bottom of the molds. It is best, of course, to use special molds, which can be purchased in shops for needlework. Also suitable are forms for making handmade soaps. However, the usual molds for ice, as well as children's sand, and even small cupcakes are also quite fit. The bomb will continue to hiss and foam in the bathroom, regardless of its shape. So, take the mold, lubricate it with oil, fill it with a moistened mixture and compact it. If we use special shapes, then fill both halves, apply them to each other, hold the pressed seconds for ten and fasten. By the way, in this case, the second half is filled not very tightly. We leave to dry for six hours near the battery (in winter) or in the sun (in summer). Dry dried bombs are carefully removed from the mold and stored in a sealed package.

• Use for food bombs food colors - they are harmless to the skin.
• If you overdo it and wet the mass for the bomb, then just dry it off the battery. Or add dry ingredients (keeping proportions).
• If you do not have enough molds, but you want the bombsdo a lot, then simply pack the mixture into a mold, pound it, squeeze it tight and get it (it's about special round shapes). And then leave to dry the bomb without form.
• If the mass does not want to be molded or crumbled after drying, then you have not moistened it enough.
• If you are afraid of making mistakes with the amount of water, then use a spray.
• If you use a solid oil for bombs, you must first dissolve it in a water bath.
• Do not use peach and apricot kernel oil to make bombs. The weight in which it is added does not hold the shape well.
