Fresh Snow Bath Tea Project
- Skill Level: Beginner
- Time: 30 minutes
- Yield: Four 9 ounce jars
Project Description
It's incredibly easy to make - simply mix together all the ingredients and store in a jar. You can add it right to the tub, put it in a sealable tea bag, or put it in a strainer and run it under the faucet. Then, relax and enjoy! The polysorbate 80 helps prevent a slippery tub by - it's an emulsifier that allows the oil in the champagne extract to mix with the bath water, rather than pooling on top. It also contains baking soda and citric acid, so you get the same fizzing reaction as a bath bomb.
