How to have a spa day at home

DIY scented bath bombs

Mix all dry ingredients in a mixing bowl
Melt the coconut oil in a microwaveable bowl and then add 5 drops of your favorite essential oil
Slowly add the scented oil to the dry mixture while mixing and continue until you achieve the consistency of cottage cheese
Using your hands, pack each side of the ball moulds with the mixture, press and snap both sides together, and then allow to sit and form for at least 24 hours (3 days for best results)
*to colour to the bath bombs, add a few drops of soap colouring when mixing the ingredients

Fill the pot with water, place the metal bowl on top of the pot filled with raw paraffin wax and bring the water to a boil to melt the wax (double boiler method)
Once the wax is melted, add approximately 8 drops of your favourite essential oil and mix well with a wooden skewer
Dip the metal plate end of a wick into the melted wax and place it centered on the bottom of your glass container to secure it in place
To keep the wick straight and centered, rest the wood skewer across the top of your glass container and wrap the end of the wick around it
Slowly pour the melted wax into the container and allow to dry and harden thoroughly
Before lighting, ensure the wick is trimmed to approximately 1/4″ long

In a mixing bowl, add all dry ingredients and stir
Melt 1 tbsp of coconut oil, add to the mixture and stir thoroughly
Use as a body and/ face scrub, and extra can be stored in an air tight container for up to one week
