Orange Bath Bombs
These simple therapeutic orange bath bombs are made to create an uplifting bath experience, and provide a relaxing effect on the body, as well. The orange essential oil in these bath bombs is also great for the skin & there are some indications it may help somewhat with acne too. No worries, while many citrus essential oils are phototoxic, orange is not, making it an excellent oil for bath bombs.
Here is what Young Living has to say about orange essential oil:
Orange (Citrus sinensis) essential oil has a rich, fruity scent that lifts the spirit while providing a calming influence on the body. Orange brings peace and happiness to the mind. It is rich in the powerful antioxidant d-limonene and aids in maintaining normal cellular regeneration.

Medicines, certainly, is going to improve your life. Purchasing medicaments online can be a good idea, as long as you do it responsibly. Sure, there are some points you should know about medication from canada. If you’re preoccupied about erectile disorder, you perhaps know about Canada Drugs. However is this solution really a good idea for you? Typically, both men and women suffer from sexual disorders. Erectile dysfunction can be a result of a physical condition. Even when it has a physical cause, psychological problems can make the disease worse. Even if this medication is not for use in women, this medicament is not expected to be harmful to an unborn baby.

Hi. I have an emergency! I made these bath bombs and they started to puff up. I tried putting them in the zip lock bag but it didn’t work. I read it happens because of the humidity, but now I have no idea what can I do at this point. Is this is it? Or can I somehow make it work? Please help!!!

Omit the water in the recipe. If the bombs won’t stick together add few drops at a time while mixing, until it just clumps a little with gentle pressure. You could also try adding a little more almond oil, but be mindful that the more oil, the oilier the bath water will be.
Best of luck.

High humidity may be the issue.
