    I followed a recipe that told me to get a spray bottle of water and put it on mist. I tried it, but my bombs expanded. I was so disappointed. I followed your recipe and the bombs are the bomb! Lol! I'm so pleased so far. I'm letting them sit overnight. I believe that they are going to be great! Thank you so much for your easy instructions!

    A tip for making these is to mix everything but the citric acid. Add it lastly after getting the proper consistency. Also use a mixer. Good luck.

    Hi Dora, I’ve been making bath bombs on and off for about 2 years. My 4 year old grandson loves bath bombs and he expects new ones from his Gigi so I’m always looking for new cool ways to make them for his bathtime enjoyment. I love your videos. And omg! Yes never spray alcohol or witch hazel on the mix. I swear idk where that terrible idea came from lol But you’re correct it’s a definite No No. I have learned so much from you. I enjoy every video and I must say you definitely know your stuff and it’s obvious you have done your homework. Everything I have tried has turned out great! So, I usually watch a couple times a week and each time I pickup great information. Keep doing what you’re doing. Btw you have a wonderful, happy and bubbly no pun intended lol personality, which makes learning much more fun. It’s obvious you love what you do. That’s awesome!

    I've been making bath bombs for three years now and I keep learning about how to produce a great bath bomb every time. I've tried the poly 80 trick from you and it works, but I also kept using the alcohol because I live in zero humidity and my bath bombs kept drying out too fast...my last batch, made with poly and alcohol expanded. It has great bubbles and action, just hard, squashed, cracked too badly to fix or turn into fizzy dust. But I use them and they are fun! I'm going to (try harder) not to add the alcohol in my next batch...and thanks!!! I needed this tutorial.

      I don’t have this issue with mine. Are u drying them fully? If this is an issue I’ve read the only way to fix it is by incorporating water &/or alcohol into the mix (which is something I refuse to do bc it NEVER works out well)

It just doesn't seem worth it. Even if you buy in bulk, shipping costs are insane lately.

    This recipe is great thank you! I added 1tsp of carrier oil for that extra hold and stability
    I'm sure its not needed though!
    Question also! So you put in liquid colour.. then you added powdered colour? I have been using these liquid colours but I can't get them bright and bold they are more pastel and they don't seem to colour the water in a dramatic way. I used 10 drops of one colour, maybe not enough? Thank you!! ❤

    @waynegross2113 2 года назад +3

    It's difficult to find a great recipe for bath bombs . It's not a simple one and done. Keeping humidity low is super important though. I can't make bath bombs the day it rains or the day after, they will not stay formed, they just fall apart, so a dehumidifier is a wonderful purchase. Humidity should be below 50. I actually prefer about 42. Everyone's recipe is different in this regard. I also use kaolin clay and cream of tarter and coconut milk, as they make the water feel nice. Sometimes I'll substitute the milk for colloidal oatmeal. I use lakes and dyes to color my bombs although a few use mica too. I'm going to try adding a liquid surfactant rather tham 99% alcohol, like you suggest and see if this helps. I've got a ton of many different surfactants, so no problem ther, lol!
    Thanks for the tutorial!

    Hey Dora! I recently found you and have become obsessed with your videos! I've struggled with Bath bombs so much, and have given up on them several times over the years and just decided not to worry with them anymore. But I always end up coming back to them. Your videos have really helped me alot and I finally have confidence that I'll be able to "get it right" this time :) Haven't used one of your recipes yet but getting ready to.
    One question though, how long does it take your bombs to completely dissolve. I'm wanting mine to last for at least 5 mins, and so far it's only about 3 mins. I'm using the 2.5" sphere molds. I'm currently not using cornstarch or a surfactant so I'm wondering if that could be the reason why they're dissolving too fast. Any suggestions you have are appreciated.
    Thanks again for all you do ❤

I'm new to making bath bombs so I do have a question and hope its not a stupid question. I was wondering do we use both mica and lake colorants as well as liquid colorants in a bomb recipe. I thought it was one or the other but I noticed you added all 3 for one single recipe. Why add mica to liquid and also lake powder. I'm a novice and apologize for my ignorance. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

    • @CreativeBathLab
      @CreativeBathLab  2 года назад

      Hey Lisa. There are no silly questions. I don't normally add all 3. I was demonstrating how to add colorants to a bath bomb recipe (for the sake of the video). If I do add all 3 I normally use 90% dye bc it dissolves in water, then I might add lake or neon color powder to brighten the color up a bit (10% at the absolute most bc it is not water soluble). Then you can add mica for sparkle.

      Fekisha I hear you & I’m hear to tell you that ALL bath bomb makers go thru this! Mine was 3 months of this until I finally made a bath bomb that I was proud of (that worked). Don’t give up! There’s a learning curve to bath bomb making & the ONLY thing you can do is practice. You can try 109+ greatest recipes that work for every one else but the truth is that it just takes time, practice, and (above all) patience to actually develop a recipe and method that works for you, your climate, your ingredients, etc. hang in there just a little bit longer and I promise you -you will get the hang of it!

    I would so love to learn more about making them because I have tried like 3 times and each time I failed. So I am just a plain soaper who gets so many requests for bath bombs and bath salts. I make awesome bath salts but I need more help with the bombs. Please help this bomber not suck any more.
