DIY Shower Steamers

Ingredients
  • 2 cups baking soda (that’s one 16-oz. box)
  • 1 cup citric acid
  • Witch hazel
  • Essential oils of your choice
  • A silicone muffin pan (or something similar)
Directions
  1. Measure the baking soda and citric acid into a bowl, and mix until well combined.
  2. Add your essential oils. You can use up to two teaspoons. Stir to combine. If you’d like to color your steamers with food coloring, add that now, too.
  3. Lightly spritz the surface of the mixture with witch hazel. Then, give it a good stir.
  4. Continue spritzing and stirring until you end up with a consistency of wet sand. It should hold together. Just be careful not to spray it too much. You don’t want your shower steamers to fizz before you use them in the shower.
  5. Then, divide your shower steamer mixture between the cups of a silicone muffin pan. Press it in with your hands or the back of a spoon, so it’s firmly packed. This recipe makes eight steamers.
  6. Allow the steamers to dry. Then, remove them from the muffin pan (they’ll pop right out if you used a silicone pan). Store them in an air-tight container until you’re ready to use them.
