How to Make Dinosaur Egg Bath Bombs:

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of citric acid and 2 cups of baking soda. Blend together.

  2. Add your Essential Oils. With Young Living Essential Oils, you only need about 3 drops.

  3. Add in 1 teaspoon of olive oil and stir well.

  4. Add your food coloring. You only need a few drops since adding too much food coloring will make the bath bombs start to fizz. Note: We actually separated the batch in half so we could make green and blue eggs but you can make the eggs all one color. Stir well.

  5. Now you will want to spray a bit of witch hazel onto the mixture to avoid it from continuing to fizz. It will stop the fizzing enough to fill your mold and allow it to harden. You only need a few quick sprays. Don’t overspray and make the mixture too wet.
  6. Tightly pack some of the mixture into the bottom of a plastic egg.

  7. Add a toy dinosaur in the middle of the egg where you placed the mixture from step 5.

  8. Add more of the mixture around the dinosaur and in the top of the egg.
  9. Close the egg. You may have some of the mixture come out of the sides of the egg and that is okay.
  10. Wrap your egg in aluminum foil and allow to dry overnight.
  11. Once your bath bomb has dried overnight, it’s time to gently remove the bomb from the plastic egg. It might take a few minutes to wiggle it out of the egg. You want to be patient since the bath bomb egg can crumble and break.
  12. Store in an airtight container for future use.
  13. When you are ready to use the bath bombs just drop them right into some water and watch them fizz!

  1. May I ask where the step for the Witch Hazel comes in?

  2. Hello! Loved this… When do we use the witch hazel though? I couldnt find it on the steps. Maybe Im blind ?

  3. Love this idea, but how many does one batch make. I would be using very small eggs.
