Homemade bubble bath recipes are easy to make and a real luxury when made with essential oils. It’s blissful at the end of the day to sink into the mist of a bubble treat, especially when it’s one of your own making.
All you need for the basic bubble bath recipes are unscented shampoo, liquid soap or castile soap and glycerine. Then it’s all down to you to customise your own bathroom bubble.
From early childhood I can remember the treat of a bubble bath. I can even remember when Mum and Dad got what was probably one of the first versions of the Jacuzzi, away back in the seventies installed in the bathroom. I ran a bubble bath, leaving the room with the Jacuzzi motor running, only to get quite a surprise on my return to find the bubbles leaving the bathroom all by themselves! Not to be recommended or repeated! But a lot of fun!!
