How to Make Liquid Bubble Bath with Only 2 Ingredients

Today I'm showing you how to make this gorgeous liquid bubble bath. The recipe is super easy & makes tons of bubbles! All you really need is distilled water & a "bubble bath-maker". For a list of bubble bath-makers click here: • Bubble Bath-makers: Dr...
RECIPE: 12 ounces (355 milliliters) distilled water, 2 ounces surfactant, "bubble bath-maker" (I used SLSa, Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate) [or use sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), sodium cocoyl isethionate (SCI), sodium coco sulfate (SCS) ** powder form is recommended because it dissolves more easily]. + 1 ounce (30 milliliters) "co-surfactant" (I used cocamidopropyl betaine) [other great choices are lauryl glucoside, coco glucoside, or decyl glucoside], .80 ounces (24 milliliters) fragrance oil, .20 ounces (6 milliliters) preservative. ** A preservative is highly recommended to extend the shelf life. DIRECTIONS: Boil the water & surfactant together for 5 minutes. Weigh mixture. Add more distilled water & bring it up to 12 ounces total. Add 1 ounce of surfactant; it's going to give the bubbles more body, boost bubble power, & allow the bubbles to last longer. Cool mixture lower than 100 degrees Fahrenheit (37 degrees Celsius), then add fragrance & a preservative (I used germall plus, linked below). ** You can thicken it with salt, but remember it's supposed to be thin.

Once the bottles are full & clean, add labels. I made a 3x2 label for the belly & a 1x2 label for the neck *** But I think it'd look better if the neck label went all the way around.

The charms hanging in the front add class & sophistication & the tassels add a pop of color & festive flare.
** If your bubble bath is too thick, add water until it's thin enough. However, this means re-formulating everything, especially the preservative. ** I made a batch a lot thinner than it was initially & was worried about losing bubble bath power. So, I added dry SLSa powder straight to the pitcher & stirred it in. It worked great at making bubbles- maybe even better than before! As long as you don’t mind tiny white flecks that can only be seen up close (I sure didn't mind).
