Making CBD Bath Bombs

CBD bath bombs are loved for being a way to that perfect relaxing bath that eases all your stress. Similar to CBD topicals, CBD bath bombs are one form of CBD meant for external application. However, bath bombs facilitate CBD absorption through the whole body and not just through any localized skin area.

 In this article, we offer a guide to making CBD bath bombs at home.

Bath bombs that come with CBD infused in them and without CBD; all have two basic ingredients, sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. These ingredients act as the base for all other ingredients of the bath bomb and form the bath bomb fizz.

The reaction between sodium bicarbonate, which is a base and citric acid contributes to the formation of the characteristic fizz that you notice when dropping bath bombs in water. After the fizz is formed, the bath bomb begins to break releasing its contents into the bath.

Here is the list of ingredients that you will need to make CBD bath bombs:

• Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda)
• Citric acid
• Cornstarch
