    Few things are more relaxing than a nice soak in the bathtub! Throw in a nice, natural bubble bath free of harmful chemicals, and you can rest in ease. Whether you're simply trying to unwind or want to heal and soothe your irritated or dry skin, you are likely to find this homemade bubble bath recipe just the perfect fit. Manuka honey makes the perfect skin soother in this fun DIY recipe. Enjoy!

    Ingredient Notes

    Manuka Honey: I love to use PRI Manuka Honey in this recipe. It is not only moisturizing and exfoliating, but packed full of other rich benefits for the skin.

    Sweet Almond Oil: This is my carrier oil of choice for this recipe due to its silky smooth nature, however, you can use any oil you prefer. Jojoba oil, coconut oil, hemp oil, and olive oil all make excellent choices.

    Liquid Body Soap: Any kind of unscented liquid soap designed for the more sensitive skin of the body will work (do not use dish soap or hand soap!). Castile soap works well, and unscented liquid body soaps or even an unscented bubble bath will also do.

    Vegetable Glycerin: Vegetable glycerin adds additional skin-soothing properties to this bubble bath recipe. It also locks moisture into the skin and protects the skin from harmful bacteria. I like to buy it from Mountain Rose Herbs.

    Optional: This bubble bath smells wonderfully of honey, but if you prefer to customize the scent, a few drops of a favorite essential oil or even vanilla extract can be used. Lavender oil would add a calming fragrance, whereas peppermint would be stimulating and energizing, for instance.

    Does this homemade bubble bath make a lot of bubbles?

    This entirely depends on your choice of liquid soap. Castile soap makes minimal bubbles, whereas an unscented bubble bath liquid will make a lot of bubbles.
