If you’re not familiar with 11-year-old entrepreneur, Hannah Grace, it’s time to get her on your radar! Hannah Grace is the creator behind BeYOUtiful, a line of bath bombs and other fantastic bath products with an amazing cause. In addition to donating proceeds of her BeYOUtiful sales go to Type 1 Diabetes research, Hannah Grace uses her platform to remind girls to be themselves and that they’re beautiful just the way they are.
Like lots of you, Hannah Grace loves all things DIY and beauty, and can often be found sharing her latest makeup reviews, slime creations, and bath bombs on her Instagram and YouTube channel. Since she is basically an expert, we asked her to share her best bath bomb DIY tips for our readers so you can master making bath bombs at home.
Making bath bombs isn’t just an art, it’s a Science! It takes lots of experimenting and tweaking to find the perfect balance of ingredients that will hold together, smell great, and give that satisfying fizz once plopped in the tub. The bath bomb process can definitely take a little trial and error, as well as patience, but if you follow Hannah Grace’s advice, we think you’ll be an expert in no time!
Plus, enter to win a BeYOUtiful Summer Prize Pack that includes 2 Strawberry Lemonade bath bombs and a slime made by Hannah Grace herself! She will also be hosting a giveaway on her Instagram account, so be sure to head over there to enter!
Find the Perfect Balance:
A good base recipe for 2 bath bombs is:
Dry Ingredients: 1 cup Baking Soda, 3/4 cup Citric Acid, 1/4 cup Cornstarch. Mix these together first.
Wet Ingredients: Mix 2 teaspoons olive, coconut, or another type of oil, 1 teaspoon essential oil (for scent), 1 teaspoon water, and 10-15 drops of food coloring. Slowly mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. If you add too much too fast, it will activate the mixture too quickly. Once you have a wet sand type of mix, put it into your mold halves. Make sure to overflow the molds so that when you push them together the extra spills out the sides. Let dry overnight and carefully take off the molds to reveal your creation.
