Recipe for Magnesium Bath Bombs (Eucalyptus–Orange)
I have a recipe for bath bombs for you, perfect for a relaxing evening bath. They also make a wonderful handmade gift.
Say “stop” to store-bought bath bombs full of artificial fragrances and ingredients that may disrupt hormones.
This product contains relaxing magnesium, which is well absorbed through the skin. The bath bombs are safe for children, and the gentle eucalyptus essential oil adds a հաճpleasant aroma and soothing effect.
