You might like to go window shopping. Maybe you preferred to lounge at a spa and relax. Other than that, most like to dip in the tub and enjoy a warm, relaxing bath with a fizzy bomb. If you know what the bath bombs ingredients are, you can just make them yourself from home.

How Do You Give Yourself a Spa Style Relaxing Bath Without the Cost?

You don’t need to spend a fortune at a spa to calm down and sooth your aching muscles. You can just simply go home and experience a deluxe spa there. You might be asking yourself how is that possible? 

First things first. Before running the water, you will need to clean your bathtub. You may use lemon and baking soda to make it smell fresh and brush it clean to make sure that you aren't bothered with soap residue.  

Prepare everything that you need. In a bathroom tray or caddy have all the things you'd like to relax with your book, a lighted scented candle, or have a glass of wine. Then drop in your favorite lavender/vanilla scented bath bomb.

Setting the Mood

Set the mood by setting your music and lighting. Choose your favorite relaxing music playlist. If you are one who loves to listen to music even in the bathroom, buy the best waterproof bathroom speakers and smart entertainment system. Next, dim the lights. This will help set the bathroom into a spa-like paradise.  

Adjust your water temperature to ensure the perfect water bath. Drop your favorite bath bomb, choose from your stock of DIY bath bombs you have put away. Make sure you have a backstock of your favorite scents like rosemary, lavender, peppermint, hibiscus, green tea, or lemon balm.  Dive into the bath tub, soothe and relax your muscles while scrubbing away all the dirt, anxieties and negativity.  

You are done with your bath and feel relaxed. If you purchase fizzy bombs regularly, then you will start to wonder how you can DIY bath bombs.

• Epsom salt. This is an optional ingredient. However, you should use Epsom salt. There are benefits for using them like distressing and their ability to soothe muscle pains. If it is not available in the stores, buy online.
• Food coloring. It is optional, however, because humans are visual lovers, we love colors. Just a few drops will do.
• Essential oils. This is also said to be optional, but we recommend putting in a few drops. Essential oils give that soothing and relaxing feeling to the fizzy bomb.
