◁ THE INSOMNIAC

THE WORST KIND OF ALL-NIGHTER IS THE ONE YOU NEVER INTENDED ON PULLING. SO PREPARE IN ADVANCE FOR A SOLID BLOCK OF SHUT-EYE WITH THIS RELAXING, FLORAL-SCENTED BATH BOMB.

MAKES 5–6 BOMBS

21/4 CUPS (497 G) BAKING SODA

11/4 CUPS (288 G) GRANULAR CITRIC ACID

1/4 CUP (24 G) CORNSTARCH

3/4 CUP (180 ML) OIL

1 TEASPOON JASMINE FRAGRANCE

1 TEASPOON BLUE LIQUID COLOR

5–6 CYLINDER-SHAPED MOLDS

3 TEASPOONS EDIBLE SILVER METALLIC STARS

1 In a large bowl, mix together the baking soda, citric acid, and cornstarch.

2 In a separate bowl, combine the oil, fragrance, and liquid color.

3 Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix with your hands until the mixture becomes the consistency of wet sand. (If you don’t like to get your hands messy, you can wear rubber gloves for this part.) The more vigorous your mixing style, the better the ingredients will be distributed, so don’t be shy. Five minutes of stirring, compressing, and kneading should do the trick.

4 Next, press the mixture firmly into your molds and then let the bombs dry for 24–48 hours.

5 Once they are completely dry, remove them carefully from the molds. If you only have one mold, you can also gently remove the bombs as you make them and lay them out to dry on a flat surface. Try not to touch them until they harden.

6 Finally, sprinkle stars liberally over the bombs.
