Bath salts bring even more relaxation to bath time. When I was a child, I loved to gently wrap my hands around "Babu" and watch it disappear.
By the way, did you know that you can easily make bath salts (called "bath bombs") that dissolve like Babu at home? This time, I actually made a bath bomb that I found on the official website of the 100-yen store "Candu!
Ingredients (easy-to-make quantities) are 100 g baking soda, 50 g citric acid, 50 g potato starch, and a little water. You should also prepare your favorite bath salts or aroma oil (5 to 10 drops depending on the quantity) for scenting.

First, mix baking soda, citric acid, and potato starch well.

Then add the bath salts of your choice, and mix in the water with a sprayer about 5 times each. The key is to spray evenly because if the water is concentrated in one place, it will fizz.



When the entire mixture is slightly moistened and hardens when squeezed with a finger, fill the molds tightly and let dry. If you use a silicon mold, it will be easier to take it out later.


Leave it for half a day to a day, and when it hardens, remove it from the mold to finish. Put it in the bathtub and enjoy watching the carbon dioxide gas being produced!



I thought it would crumble easily, but it hardens quite firmly, so even children can make it without failure......how about making it during summer vacation using various bath salts and scents?
