These Black Rose Petal Bath Bombs are made with real rose petals and activated charcoal are natural and smell pretty amazing!
These Black Rose Petal Bath Bombs were inspired by a Pinterest post I seen a while ago on my hunt to purchase some bath bombs. I know you may think it’s crazy that I purchase bath bombs and make them, but I love diversity and can’t resist a cute bath bomb. Well that bath bomb is no longer for purchase and I really wanted to buy the bath bomb. Since I couldn’t find the bath bomb anywhere, I decided to go ahead and make my own black rose petal bath bomb.
I don’t know if she used fragrance oils or not, but I decided to go ahead and use essential oils to keep it natural and invigorating. Now this bath bomb will be a bit messy for your tub, but it’s so worth it! The black water with the glitter and rose petals are beautiful to look at while your soaking in the tub.
