Instructions

add wet ingredients to dry ingredients (doing this too fast will activate the Citric Acid that creates a fizzing effect)
Mix until mixture looks like wet sand
Pack mixture into each half of the molds until slightly overfilled
Press both halves together firmly
let sit for 1 minute
Lightly tap mold before carefully pulling apart to remove bath bomb
Allow to dry for at least 24 hours before using
