Publisher's Synopsis
"I had a great time using this book with my best friend to make bath bombs. We are thinking about starting an Etsy shop. Everything you need to know is in the book. I now know how to make them without harmful ingredients! It really sparked my interest into creating different recipes on my own as well. So much fun! No complaints." - Jo Johnson

Wouldn't you love to work from home and be your own boss?
I started making bath treats for my grandkids because many of the bath bombs, bubble baths, shampoos, and bath products that are on the market today contain ingredients that you can't even pronounce, let alone know what they are!
When I looked for bath products for my young granddaughter, I was disappointed that I couldn't find much. I wanted to know what was in the products and whether it was harmful to her tender skin. I wanted something unique that would be fun for her.
That's when I did my research and learned the basics of making bath products. I started making bath products for my granddaughter. She loved them so much, she told her friends about them. Eventually, I was making bath treats for and her friends - and their friends!
In this book, I show you exactly how to do what I did from top to bottom, start to finish, step by step.
