Ingredients

  • 1 cup baking soda
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 12 drops grapefruit essential oil
  • 12 drops orange essential oil
  • Orange food coloring (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, thoroughly mix 1 cup of baking soda with 1/4 cup of water. Add 12 drops each of grapefruit and orange essential oils. Add a few drops of orange food coloring if desired to enhance the appearance.
  2. Form Steamers: Spoon the mixture into a cupcake tin lined with cupcake liners, pressing gently to compact the mixture evenly into each cup.
  3. Dry and Set: Allow the steamers to dry and harden completely at room temperature for 24 hours before use.
  4. Use: Place one steamer on the shower floor away from direct water flow to release refreshing citrus scents as it fizzes in the steam.

Notes

  • Do not place steamers directly under running water to avoid dissolving them too quickly.
  • Store steamers in an airtight container to preserve scent and prevent moisture absorption.
  • Essential oils are potent; use as directed and keep away from eyes and sensitive skin areas.
  • This recipe is a fun and natural alternative to commercial shower fresheners.
