BATHING IN LAVENDER - DIY BATH FIZZERS

Bathing in lavender DIY bath fizzers

Lavender is known to be very relaxing. Try these bath fizzers to encourage your sleepy time.

To create your own bath fizzers,
You'll need:
A bowl and spoon to mix, a spray bottle of water and mould for shapes (if desired).
Ingredients:
1 cup of bicarb soda
1 cup of citric acid (in the baking aisle)
1/2 cup cornflour (called cornstarch-US)
1/2 cup of carrier oil (such as coconut, olive, or apricot)
and 8-10 drops of lavender essential oil (or other essential oil if desired)

Mix all the ingredients and spritz with a small amount of water until mixture holds together. Press into silicone moulds for fun shapes. If you dont have one, forming into small ball shapes is fine. I have a love-hearts chocolate mould that is perfect for this. You can find these in most department stores. Let it dry for 1/2 an hour, then press out onto wax paper to allow to dry furthur. These are ready to use as soon as they are dry. You could leave them for 24 hours if you want to be sure they will hold. 

Add to your bath for a relaxing soak. You could gift these to a friend in a nice jar. For a variation, you could also colour them, or add some real lavender buds from your garden. Just make sure to use a small amount of colour as you dont want your skin to turn purple in the bath!

​You can find pure lavender essential oil in a 15ml bottle for $50RRP from our shop. This pure, high quality essential oil is free from synthetic alteration and chemicals. If you're not into DIY, maybe for a good alternative, you'd like to add milk or epsom salts to your Lavender bath.
