Very Berry Bath Truffle
For this very berry bath truffle, we will be using dragonfruit berry essential oil. The combination of baking soda and citric acid creates an incredible fizzing reaction, making beautiful luxurious bubbles. Your bubbles will moisturize and nourish your skin, and the scent will take your mind away to a stress-free place. These bath truffles will need five days to dry and harden before you can use them. When you are ready for your bath, hold the truffle under the faucet to activate the bubbles.
The recipe makes about 18 truffles.
