I usually
share a cookie recipe in December, but I decided not to wait on this one, because
a bubbly bath in January will chase away the chills and give you a chance to relax
after all that holiday hoopla. This
blend has an ingredient I have just recently discovered -SLSA, or Sodium Lauryl
Sulfoacetate.
If you make bath bombs or other bubbling
bath items, you'll love SLSA. It creates amazing bubbles in the water. You can
also use it for solid bubble bath, bath truffles, and bath salts. This
product is derived from coconut and palm oil, so it's 100 percent natural.
Bath
Cookies
1 cup Baking
Soda
1/2 cup Citric
Acid
½ cup
SLSA (or increase baking soda and/or citric acid by ½ cup to make up for the volume)
2
oz Melted Cocoa Butter
1
oz Melted Shea Butter
1
oz Essential oil of your choice (Lavender to relax, Peppermint to wake up,
or Lemon to increase happy thoughts)
Directions:
Melt
your Cocoa Butter and Shea Butter. Combine all of your
dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Pour
your Cocoa Butter and Shea Butter into your dry mixture and add your essential
oil. Mix until well combined. You want your mixture to hold its shape when
pressed into a ball, so experiment that it has enough stickiness to stay
together and not crumble, by making a ball in your hands to test it. Once it is
firm enough and not crumbly, press your mixture into a silicone mold as tightly
as you can. Allow to set over night. Remove from molds and enjoy a nice relaxing
fizzing bubble bath.
TO USE: Drop a single bath bomb into the bath water and watch the fizz!
