You just need some ingredients, hot water, and patience if you want to soak in the magic of a steamy and bubbly bubble bath!

These are the required ingredients:
• Few cups of water for making the bubble bath mixture
• Scented or unscented castile soap (few teaspoons – 5 Oz approximately)
• Essential Oils yielded from lavender, citrus or any of your favorite ones)
• Glycerine or Coconut oil as per your preference ( up to 4 Oz)
• A bathtub (preferably large)
Note: You can experiment with few more ingredients such as almond oil, honey, etc. as well provided that they do not alter your bathing experience.
Now, follow these steps to get a rejuvenating bubble bath! :
• Step 1: Blend water with coconut oil or glycerine whichever suits you better. Combine it with castile soap. Mix all the ingredients nicely.

• Step 2: Pour a few drops of essential oil in the mixture. Stir it well.

• Step 3: Pour the mixture in a container (preferably made of metal since glass containers are not advisable to use near bathtub). Leave it aside for a while.

• Step 4: Pour water in the bathtub but not fill it till the brim or it will be splashed out as you step-in. Add a few drops of essential oils again if needed. Step into the bathtub and enjoy it!
You can also add jojoba or sweet almond oil to enjoy a personalized experience. Vanilla, Chamomile, Lavender Essential Oil, Sandalwood, etc. are some of the best essential oils that can provide you a mesmerizing experience. Remember that it is the soap that makes bubbles, so do not mind wasting it and submerge your body into the dreamy bubble land! You can also prepare the bubble bath mixture in advance so that you can use it later.

This is a traditional bubble bath method that comprises natural ingredients like egg whites and honey (sugar can also be used instead of honey). Follow this procedure to make your bubble bath:
Step 1: Take half a cup of liquid soap and mix one egg white, sugar (or honey) in it. Start filling the tub with water and pour the mixture below the running water so that bubbles get created naturally.
Step 2: The egg white makes the bubbles last longer and gives a truly amazing experience but using it is not mandatory. Therefore, vegans can omit the egg white and replace it with glycerine or coconut oil. Now, pour a few drops of almond oil or any light oil for a relaxing experience.
Step 3: Enter the bathtub and enjoy the luxurious bubble bath!
