Mary Poppins Returns - Bath Bombs Step-By-Step Tutorial

This blog post is sponsored by Walt Disney Studios!

I am so excited about the release of Mary Poppins Returns available digitally 3/12/19 (that's today!) and 4k Ultra HD & Blu-ray on 3/19/19! Now an adult with three children, bank teller Michael Banks learns that his house will be repossessed in five days unless he can pay back a loan. His only hope is to find a missing certificate that shows proof of valuable shares that his father left him years earlier. Just as all seems lost, Michael and his sister receive the surprise of a lifetime when Mary Poppins - the beloved nanny from their childhood - arrives to save the day and take the Banks family on a magical, fun-filled adventure!

Are you familiar with the imaginative and epic bubble bath scene? That's my favorite part!

To go along with relaxing bubble baths, I've made a step-by-step tutorial for creating your very own bath fizzies!

 SUPPLIES:

Dry Ingredients:

1 cup baking soda
1/2 cup citric acid

1/2 cup corn starch

1/3 cup epsom salts

Wet Ingredients:

2 1/2 tbsp castor oil

1 tbsp water

1 tsp fragrance oil or essential oil

10-12 drops soap coloring

 Step 1) Mix all of the dry ingredients in a large bowl using a whisk until well blended. Note: I was sent brown corn starch but I recommend using white corn starch for the coloring aspect.

Step 2) Prepare all of the wet ingredients (excluding the soap coloring) in a cup and mix together with a spoon.

 Step 3) SLOWLY pour the wet ingredients into the bowl, mixing it in with the whisk, a little bit at a time. It should resemble sand when finished mixing.

 Step 4) Add drops of soap coloring and use your hands to mix it together. Note: wear gloves if you prefer not to get the coloring on your hands, but it will wash off with soap and water. You could also split the mixture and color each one a different color for a fun twist!

 Step 5) Press the mixture into round molds, packing it in tightly.

 Step 6) Smash the two round molds together to create one ball.

 Step 7) Let the molds set for two hours.

Step 8) Pop balls out of the molds and let them dry overnight. Then use as is or pack in cellophane bags to gift to friends!

I hope you are inspired to trying making bath bombs! I was so surprised how easy and quick they were to make! And also remember to pick up the new Mary Poppins Returns available digitally now or on 3.19 in 4k Ultra HD & Blu-ray!
