DIRECTIONS

3. Press the mixture into the molds. Be sure to press firmly into all the corners and edges.
4. Allow to dry (overnight is best).
Note: Do not try to remove your bath fizzies early or they will crumble and fall apart.

Why would I need to give you my ss number to purchase essential oils? Never have I heard this. Sounds fishy to me.
