Ylang Ylang Bath Bomb
These 5.6-oz bath bombs are handcrafted with the best-sourced ingredients, including baking soda, cornstarch, citric acid, Epsom salt, carrier oil, alcohol, and Ylang Ylang Essential Oil. They are a compacted mixture of wet and dry ingredients molded into any of several shapes and then dried. Bath water effervesces at the surface of a bath bomb, with attendant dispersion of ingredients such as essential oil, moisturizer, fragrance, or colorant. These bath bombs do not contain an emulsifier so that they will reveal oil on the water's surface. These bath bombs do not contain any colorant aside from natural colors included in the essential oil, which could give the bath bomb a slightly off-white color. Bath bombs' primary ingredients are a weak acid and a bicarbonate base. These are unreactive when dry but react vigorously when dissolved in water to produce their characteristic fizzing over seconds to a minute or two.
