Instructions
Step 1
In a bowl, combine dry ingredients. Mix together until completely combined.
Muffin PanStep 2
Add all wet ingredients to a jar and shake well to combine. Mix carefully into the dry ingredients, making sure it is completely mixed.
Step 3
The mixture will fizz- this is fine as you don't need them to fizz later like bath bombs. Mix everything together until it looks slightly coated.
Tip: Mix longer than you think. The mixture will still look dry but keep mixing.
Step 4
Portion the steamer mixture into the molds filling them about halfway. Press down firmly.
Step 5
Spray each mold cavity with a bit of water. Portion out the remaining mixture and press down again.
Step 6
Spray once more and press down. The better you press down the more they hold together.
Step 7
Dry your steamers. Let sit on the counter for 24 hours to firm up, or you can “bake” at 350 degrees for 15 minutes then cool muffin liners on a rack, or dehydrate them using a dehydrator. You just want them to be dry.
Step 8
Add 3-4 more drops essential oils or more melted mentholatum if desired.
Step 9
After they set, pop them out and store until you use them!
Step 10
Store in an airtight jar; label w/scent and if gifting, directions for use
Mason JarStep 11
To use, place the steamer on the shower floor (if you used cupcake liners, remove the paper). As the disk dissolves, the steam from your shower will deliver soothing scent in the steam from your shower.
