UPDATED INFO
Mad Micas released detailed information about what colors are safe to use in bath products in May 2017. It notes that the purple mica 'Harolds Purple Crayon' is "NOT PERMITTED IN BATH BOMBS DUE TO ULTRAMARINE BLUE INGREDIENT". This video was filmed in February 2017. There was no warning on the Mad Micas website about using this color in bath bombs when this was filmed. For more information about what colors are allowed in bath bombs here is a link to the article -

I absolutely know I cannot be the only person who is thinking this, absolutely best DIY bath bomb video on RUclips! You went over the ingredients, the importance of them, step-by-step super easy but at a fast enough pace. All questions were answered, great video!
adding citric acid at the end is a good idea!
I have had a lot of success doing it this way! I worked for LUSH cosmetics for over 3 years in sales and noticed this is the way they make bath bombs (they are the best and my absolute favorite!) Happy crafting! xo
All bathbombs need citric otherwise they don't press
@@winstonchurchill5731 no if it doesn't have citric acid it wont fizz up. But the fact she added it at the end made it more fizzy
wow didn't expect you to be here tara haha
I add my citric acid at the end too. It makes it so much easier.
I appreciate this video. I'm new to making bath bombs and I've been having difficulty. I've also been eyeballing presses after having a bit of difficulty with silicone molds. You are to the point but with a conversational tone which is heavily appreciated.
Great Video! I use the Moon Press for Shower Steamers.
This is probably the best tutorial I've found on bath bombs.Thanks for keeping it straight to the point, and the music tolerable, and all the links! Thanks a million. Who'da thunk there was such a high learning curve on something so seemingly simple as bath bombs!
Thanks so much for this informative video! I can’t wait to try this!!
Emilie, thank you for sharing, I have always enjoyed your videos 😉. Thanks for including the important step of using 91% RA and not water! I have learned that one the hard way too. I too love Dean’s channel but somehow missed his recipe for bath bombs, glad you found it. I love my Mooncake press, one of the best things out there for bath bombs. Thanks again for the detailed tutorial, you rock...or ‘you da bomb!...bath bomb’, lol! 😂
OMG!! By far the best video I have seen for BB making, Thank you so much for sharing. Very clear and very understanding! Yes LOVE LOVE Dean Wilson!! I do have a question.... How long should I let my BB dry and do I need to cover them while drying, is there such thing as too long of drying before I cover them / package them .... for friends as gifts I dont sell. Thank you again. Please keep your videos coming I love them !
noelleprairie don't cover while drying you don't want to trap the moisture in. You'll want to dry a couple days before packaging.
I was looking to make xmas gifts for friends. Finding your recipe fits perfectly. By far yours is the best tutorial I have seen on RUclips. Thank you for sharing your knowledge so that we can avoid mistakes & wasting money in the process.
Changing the bathbomb game!!
So happy to hear you enjoyed this tutorial! Thank you for watching! xo
Thank you so much for your video. By far easier to use the mooncake press than the round molds. Also, best bath bombs recipe. Thanks for sharing Dean's recipe with us.
Dean's recipe is the best! So happy to hear you found this helpful. Thank you for watching! xo
That is my favorite purple mica as well
Ty so much for telling how to use the stamper, bc like you said, it came with NO directions. I have the hardest time with the sphere molds. So glad I found this one 🥰
You are so welcome! These are my favorite!
I'm so glad I found this video, I was just looking at mooncake molds and wondering if I'd just be wasting my time (and money), now I'm going to go ahead and order the set I was looking at. Thank you so much for sharing this information! 💖
Mine crumble every single time!!!!!!!!! Damn a moon press!!!
I love Dean Wilsons videos! He's awesome
Thanks for all the tips and recipe from Dean Wilson.
THANKS GIRL!!!! The citric acid tip is a lifesaver
How beautifully you taught...!! Each and every step explained so well..!! You passionate about your talent..and a heart to impart your knowledge to all..Thank you gal..!! For sure will try..!! Have seen so many videos about bath bombs..but yours looks the BEST..!! Thank you ☺😚 !! Much love !!
Maybe you already have seen a update on Mad Micas website, the glitter sadly contains aluminum and that is forbidden in bath bombs by the FBA. Just so there's awareness of the ingredient, it is also forbidden in lip gloss/lipsticks ☺ But.. these turned out to be beautiful! 🤗
Thanks for that info
Best tutorial ever! A game changer...thank you!
Genius with adding the citric acid at the end!
E, I don't know how I've missed this! I can't wait to show you how you've blessed me! More to follow later!
Thank you! So happy you found my channel! xo
Hey Emilie, im so glad you love my bath bomb recipe. Your mooncake press bath bombs look awesome. I should give that a try soon.
+Dean Wilson Dean! Your bath bomb recipe is hands down the best! I’m a huge fan of your channel. Thank you for your kind words. I am flattered! All the best!
You're recipe is the best recipe I've tried thus far. Thanks Dean !
Love love your vids Dean!
And emilie
thank you so much for your video your a life saver. I hate the round molds and love being non-traditional
I love, love your tutorials. They are so informative and thorough.
So glad I found you channel. I just bought this same bath balm maker and was thinking how better it would be then the normal round shapes. I thought these looked so pretty 🦋 I'm glad I bout it now. ❤️
Don’t need too much effort. Just press in with your palm, then turn onto the table top and press down with the handle firmly (not with super man strength) and then press it out. Works just as well😉
+annette pope Thank you :)
Annetta pope, I have used sugar molds,in the past, for a bit of everything including,cake decorating with sugar,and moulding butter for dinner parties,! wondering if it would be possible to get the same results with the bath bombs, considering the consistency is the same as the bath mix until completely dry and set??!
Omg this looks so much easier than the circle one
Good job. I just made the same exact bath bombs for a little girl's birthday party. I scented them "love spell" I use the same ingredients as you with the exception of Epsom Salt. I am hooked on the bath bomb pess.
After seeing your beautiful demonstration I just might try making these beautiful bath bombs. I've held out because I just wasn't impressed with the whole spherical mold thing. Your mold is beautiful! TY and Dean for sharing.
this is by far the best method I've found so far!! I LOVE THE Moonpie molds!! Brilliant!!
This is an awesome video thank you. Sometimes I take my glitter in my pump and spray it in the air so the fairy dust twinkles in my soap room
Great tutorial. I purchase the press but it had no instructions either. I can't wait to try your recipe. Thanks for sharing.😍
I love this!!!! Gorgeous!!! Purple is my favorite color!
I actually ordered all of my ingredients a few days ago. I'm making some today! Awesome video!
Sherry Bloom would you mind sharing what the total cost of supplies was? It seems like it would be a lot but maybe I’m wrong.
Michelle. It wasn’t expensive at all. I believe it was under $40 for everything, and that was in bulk price. For example: a huge box of baking soda 64oz was $5. I use amazon and eBay. Things like baking soda and corn starch, I usually go to Walmart. I’m going to start purchasing those items in bulk too since I’m getting so many requests for bath bombs
Yay! Hope it goes well! Happy crafting! xo
You're a great teacher!
Love these! Great idea to add the citric acid at the end. Can I replace the rubbing alcohol with witch hazel, I’m having a hard time trying to get it in 90% proof. Thanks!
Thank you Emillie, you are awesome!
thank you for this informative video and tutorial.
I ordered the mooncake molds. Had difficulty with the recipe being way too dry here in Utah. Has to add much more oil and spritzers the alcohol. There is no way I could have picked it up without crumbling. I have always struggled with Bath Bombs too dry. Finally got some nice ones out of the batch. Thanks for sharing.
DesertMoonBathNBody I’m in utah too! Super hard making BB and sometimes even soap! Lol
Love this video I learned so much , thank you ... they are beautiful
Beautiful!! Thank you for sharing
You are so welcome!
Best tutorial I've seen. Excellent for beginners like me!! TFS!
Bravo!! 👏🏻❤️🧽🧼 Love your voice and the simplicity of the way you teach. You explain why you do things and that's a huge plus in learning. P.S. Tysm for explaining how to replace the mold patterns I had heck of a time. Lol 🤦🏻♀️
Your voice is so soothing
Aww! Thank you! Such a kind thing to say. 😘
Thanks so much. They are beautiful!!
This video is so amazingly helpful!! I found it when I was starting out and seriously this video has so many amazing tips in it!
I purchased my mooncake press in the Surplus section of Aussie Soap Supplies :)
+Natasha Green Aussie Soaps is the best! Thanks for watching! :)
Does anybody else have issues with the pattern not turning out due to the ingredients sticking to the mold? Your stamps turned out so crisp and clean!
@@shariblauner2987 I discovered lightly dipping the top (that has the pattern ingrained) with baking soda.
@@shariblauner2987 Iet me know if it works for you!
Thanking you for sharing this
What a fantastic tutorial! Thanks so much!
Wow - stunning. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful thanks for the upload. I will e sure to credit you in my video🤗
Ima look u up n watch ur vids too
Beautiful
The is one of the best I've seen. I just ordered them. I ordered the one you have & the triangle looks like a peice of pie or cake slice. But where did you get the mist bottle for the glitter? I'm so glad I happened upon this video. Do you know how to make a cucumber bomb I can't find one I'm not sure if that's possible. Thanks you.
This video is absolutely amazing!!!
I love them! Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful bath bombs
Love them they are beautiful! thanks for sharing
Those are beautiful!
Love it! Gifty!
I have been perfecting my Bathbomb recipes. Thanks for sharing. 😉
I frequently have issues with the top of my design being very sensitive to packaging. I usually spray the bb after it comes out of the mold with 99% alcohol to set the design so it is more durable. Do you have any suggestions to making the bb solid?
This is great
Damn girl awesome sauce because of you I have been inspired to go in by not 1 moon press but two I am now looking to do a DIy with my family I have been inspired thank U they look so beautiful tfs 😍
Thanks for sharing.
Awesome tips!
Never heard of a moon cake or a moon cake press until I started making body stuff lool
best bb video ever!!! thanks for sharing ;0)
OOOOOOOOOOOO CANT WAIT TO MAKE SOME !!
Y do my bath bombs flatten out while drying
Thank you so much !!!! It's really helpful !!!
Happy to hear it! You are welcome! :)
Love your work, can you tell me where I can find the little glitter sprayer please and thank you!
Outstanding tutorial!! Can't wait to try this :)
I love it although I worry that now I bought all of those ingredients now i cant buy food, lol.
I was wondering how much everything would cost. Will l need to mortgage my home 🤦♀️
Great video!
Does the glitter stick to your skin? Does it dissolve? I’m watching videos before I try this for the 1st time.
So pretty!
Thank you! xo
What kind of glitter and spray bottle did you use on the coating of the finished bomb
So glad to see you back :)
This is soo good, I like Bath Bombs, if you can put some essential oil, it would be great, I used some essential oil brand on amazon, Brand like young living, ISUDA, PureOil, I love orange scent soooo much, That make me a perfect bath experience
Wow
1:45 “I have some sweet almond oil to add some MOISTURE to the water...” 😂
Just in case your water is a bit too dry 😂
Harold's Purple Crayon, a crown goes on your head.
i just watched this and loved how easy it is to use a moonpress if you don't mind me asking what size is the big one as i have the 50g one and can't wait to try it out
Great Vlog!
I tried these and they are perfect!
Great video! Appreciated the info about the SLS, Polysorbate 80 & adding citric acid at the end. Really good information.
I love these! How long would you say they would last in storage?
Hi! I'm having some issues with my moonpress...sometimes it's sticks and the final desing is not as beautiful...do you have any advice to give me that it doesn't stick in it?
Me too. I spent the afternoon today trying every which way to get these to work. The patterns on the tops didn't turn out clean. It was okay on one side but not the other. Also when I pull the mold off, it's brushing some of the side off. I don't know how to make a smooth release. Any tips? I tried when it was wet and when it was a bit drier. No luck.
Could i use cornstarch in place of the kaolin clay?
Wonderful video! Thank you so much for taking the time to share. Best of 2018 to you!!
Thank you for this sharing! When I try the moon cake press, everything is perfect in the beginning, but when I do the second batch, the powder will be stuck in the press pattern and make a blurred surface. I've tried to make it wetter or drier, pack tight or pack loose, put some cornstarch or baking soda before...etc, but it still does not work:(
Have you ever meet this situation? Thanks!
Im having the exact same issue, my first batch tuned out perfectly, but when i went to make more a few months later, the mixture sticks to the top of my press. did you find a solution for this at all?
Did you add more of the mica color? Your video had a jump-cut and it was waaay darker?
Hi Emilie, would this still work if am am using Essential Oils rather than Fragrance Oil? And if so, how many drops of EO would you recommend? Thanks :)
Did you figure this out?? I'm wondering the same thing
Can you put in less Fragrance will it do anything to the bath bomb process?
Very nice tutorial... But i noticed you used SLS,,which is Not the safer SLSA....
Loved your video, quick question. Do you have to bake the bath bombs?
Thank you for the tutorial. I know this is an older video. I was wondering if you know how many ounces (finished product) the 50g & 75g mold make? I would like to order a moon cake press to make my shower steamers, but am unsure which one to order.
Hi. What would be a break down on costs? To buy ingredients and make one? Just curious if worth making and selling?
