The way these rainbow bath bombs turned out is nothing short of fabulous. And the “hardest” part is separating the mix and that is ridiculously easy.

Tips to Make This Rainbow Bath Bomb Recipe

- Never use food coloring as it can stain your skin, tub, or shower. Mica powder or soap colorant is best.
- This is a super-colorful recipe and would be perfect for anyone or as a party favor.
