- Put the mixture into your silicone mold. Let it sit overnight or until it is hard.
- Once hardened, gently peel out of the mold. Store in an airtight container.
- To use, place 1 or 2 on the bottom of the shower while you're showering. They will dissolve in the warm water and the aroma will help open your airways along with the steam from the shower.
