How Do I make my own bath tints?

Question

My son loves the color blue or green in the tub, so I want to make my own, any suggestions.???

Answer 1

Tub Tints
Tub Tints are a really fun way to add some pizzazz to your bath!

3 cups baking soda
1 1/2 cups citric acid
2 cups cornstarch
3 cc fragrance oil
.15cc powdered water-soluble dye (pigments or micas will NOT work. FD&C Blue and FD&C Yellow from Bramble Berry WILL work. If you use a pigment or mica, it may not disperse evenly in the water, and may stain your tub!)

Mix all ingredients completely. The mixture will appear white.

Package into decorative bags and tie closed.

To use, add 1/4 to 1/2 cup per full tub of water. Mix crystals in completely before getting into the water. Taa-daaaa! Colored bath water!

Answer 2

If you want to make your own, you just need a few basic ingredients. Get some soap dye from the craft store and some coarse salt and epsom salt from the grocery store. Mix the salts half and half then add color a few drops at a time, shaking after each one, til the color is right. The best thing is you can use them for yourself too, they are really good for your skin.
Scents are also available in the soap making section. I've done this lots of times for myself and others--they make great gifts in a pretty jar.
