These Baby's Breath Bath Bombs will take your mind off the cold temperatures and gray skies. They're made with products from the new Modern Floral Collection.
The star of the recipe is new Baby's Breath Fragrance Oil. It's a delicate scent that has notes of grapefruit, bergamot, peach, and amber. The bath bombs are colored with Blue Slushy Mica. Lotus flower extract is added for a bit of luxury and they're topped with jasmine flowers. The recipe is easy to make and it's ready in just a few hours. You'll be relaxing and dreaming of spring in no time.

ONE: In a large bowl, mix together 32 ounces of baking soda and 16 ounces of citric acid. To get rid of clumps in the mixture, you can push the powders through a sifter or break them up with your fingers. Citric acid has a tendency to take off nail polish, so wear gloves to protect your manicure. Thoroughly stir the ingredients together.
TWO: Add 1/4 teaspoon of Blue Slushy Mica and stir in. The color will not be very saturated but don’t worry – once you add the liquid ingredients the color will pop.
THREE: In a separate container, mix together 1 ounce of lotus flower extract, 0.5 ounces of Baby’s Breath Fragrance Oil, and 0.2 ounces of polysorbate 80. Stir the mixture together with a spoon.
FOUR: Add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients and use your hands to thoroughly stir everything together.
FIVE: Check the consistency of the bath bomb mixture. The perfect consistency is similar to wet sand that holds its shape when squeezed. If it's too dry, use one hand to spritz the mixture with witch hazel and one to mix. Continue spritzing until the mixture holds its shape when squeezed.
FIVE: Place jasmine flowers into the bath bomb mold.
SIX: Begin filling each mold with the mixture. Firmly compact the mixture into the mold to create a solid shape. Only fill each mold to the inner lip, or the lid will not close. Allow the bath bombs to dry and harden for at least 4 hours or up to overnight. To use, place in a hot bath and enjoy.
TIP: To prevent the jasmine flowers from moving to the edges of the mold, place a small amount of bath bomb mixture (just enough to cover the flowers) and press down. Then continue to fill the mold.
