      Hah it’s something I picked up from baking! Bakers like to compare all other ingredients to flour in their formulas, so flour becomes 100% and every other ingredient is relative.

      Bath bombs are definitely finicky. One day a recipe will work, and the next day it fails you. I think I’ve made enough bath bombs to know how to tame them a bit, though!

      @SoapUniverse  Месяц назад +2

      This is actually something I’m struggling with! When I use “proper” bath bomb dyes, the water will be super saturated but the foam is basically white. What gives?!
      I used neon colourants which aren’t water soluble, so I imagine the neons make the foam more colourful because the powder is floating… who knows!

    This video gave me nostalgia for when I used to work at Lush and did demonstrations for the customers. I was told each bath bomb cost about 50 pence to make and we were selling them for about £5-8 depending on the type of bath bomb. To be fair they did give us £10 an hour which was roughly 15% more than minimum wage; so the profits were going into paying staff decently and for high quality ingredients. This was 5 years ago so everything has gone up. Bath bombs can easily be £10+ and I'm not paying that for a single use item

    • @SoapUniverse

      That’s very interesting! Did you have a favourite bath bomb or soap? I heard that Outback Mate is super popular and I might want to recreate that one.
      I agree, $9 CAD is very expensive for a bath bomb… I wouldn’t want to drain the tub! Especially since people report they’re so hit or miss - I’ve heard some of them are even duds and barely fizz at all.

      @@SoapUniverse working for Lush, you had to memorise every single product in the shop and know at least 2 ingredients that made each product unique so I had to memorise about 1000+ pieces of information. So I can confidently say that the best product in the entire shop was the dry shampoo. It was the only product that was cheaper than the supermarket versions, it was a powder so it was better for asthmatics who can be triggered by aerosol sprays, and mine lasted for literally like 5 years.
      In terms of the bath and soap category... My favourite was the comforter bubble bar. I liked the scent profile and I love bubble bath more than bath bombs

      @@hadassahm3016 that sounds like a huge pain! But it makes sense because Lush is really trying to push unique ingredients to consumers… maybe to justify the high price? 🤔

    We make bath bombs as one of our main products. They are finicky and I spent 6 months formulating my bomb recipe for oklahomas crazy bipolar weather. We have a slow and foamy recipe where our 3 inch 7 ounce rounds last upwards to 30 minutes. If you delve further into bombs and are ever interested in trying viewer recipes I’d totally share ours for you to try!

      @SoapUniverse  Месяц назад

      Wow, that’s a crazy long time! That’ll last a bath for sure. I’d love to try your recipe!
      Do you use SLSA as the foaming agent? I’ve found in every recipe that contains it, I have to quarter mine - otherwise it ends up being a giant foam ball that doesn’t fizz.
