Common Bath Bomb Problems And How To Fix Them!

Today I'm going over 10 bath bomb-making issues (& how to resolve them). Issues if mixture was too dry or drying out when molding: 1. Powdery Bath Bombs. 2. Small cracks: Make small batches because the mix dries out fairly quickly & it'll never be as good as it was. You can wet the mix more. I've formulated a spray that works best: 15 milliliters water, 15 milliliters carrier oil, 5 milliliters polysorbate 80. Or: 10 milliliters water, 10 milliliters oil, 10 milliliters fragrance oil, 3 milliliters polysorbate 80. If you notice cracks, shrink wrap the bomb & dry 24 hours. 3. Crumbling Bombs: You can spray the mixture to remold. Or sieve bombs to a fine powder & re-wet the mixture if they're completely dry. ***The mix will require a lot more wet ingredients the second [this] time around. Or you can recycle the powder. Issues if mixture was too wet or wet ingredients were added too quickly: 4. Huge cracks in the middle: Always add wet slowly while stirring. And/or add citric acid last, after wet has been added. 5. Bombs growing or puffing up: It's too wet if the mix moves or puffs up slowly. Stir it until the mix no longer puffs up before you mold. 6. Warts or raised bumps: Means mixture was too wet, wet was added too quickly, or ingredients were mixed enough. Always sieve & fully mix ingredients. Also, salt & other humectants can cause warts. 7. Sides won't stick together: This could mean the mixture wasn’t wet enough or the mixture is too wet & sticking to mold. But more than likely it’s a molding issue. Fill the mold, pack it, put loose mix on top.. Do that for both sides. Then smoosh the 2 sides together. 8. Soft bombs : Could mean the mixture was too wet, it's humid, or it could be from improper molding & not packing enough mix in. Mold the bomb, take it out, turn it, & mold it once more. If you notice any soft spots, add more mix to the other side, & mold it again. But more than likely soft bombs are from too much oil &/or polysorbate 80 (decrease these). For harder bath bombs, incorporate water in recipe &/or hardeners, like clay or cream of tartar. 9. Flat bottom: Means mixture was too wet or not enough mix was added. You should support the bath bomb's shape while they're drying. 10. If the Bombs wont float: this could be from too much wet ingredients (making the bath bomb too heavy). For a standard recipe (1 cup baking soda, 1/2 cup citric acid, & 1/4 cup corn starch), you should only add 15-20 milliliters of wet ingredients. But more than likely bombs are not dry enough. Make them & dry them 12-24 hours. Then shrink wrap them. Also, some bomb shapes just float better than others. If you're having issues, it's normal & it's not your fault. There are several factors that play into this. But there are 2 things you must remember going forward: First, bath bombs are extremely finicky. A recipe that worked fine 1 day may not work the next. Second, Bath bombs are tricky & meticulous. They require a perfect balance of wet to dry ratios. All I can say is practice & experimentation is the key to conquering bath bombs.
**Why do the wet ingredients gel up & become one big blob? I don't know the science of why this happens, but it's normal & polysorbate 80 is the culprit. Some ingredients don't activate it & others do. This will not affect your recipe. Simply place the blob in the dry ingredients & mix as you normally would.**

I just made your rock hard recipe bath bomb. The wet ingredients thickened after adding the color powder to the point that it would not pour and it was quite dry. I was able to mix in all the ingredients and I put them in the mold but I forgot to add in the extra color powder so I did not have enough for 3 x 2.5" containers. Can you tell me why the wet ingredients would do this. Should I just add the color into the dry ingredients instead of in the wet ingredients. I live in Canada. Thank-you in advance.

HI, I always enjoy watching your vidoes. I know the humidity is such a key factor for a successful bath bomb but Is it still good to make the humidity as low as possible like around 20~30%. Further, as you know a humidifier makes the temperature higher and do u think it plays such a role?
@CreativeBathLab
@CreativeBathLab Год назад
higher temps not so much, more humidity- yes definitely.

Thank you for this video. I have a recipe that includes powdered goats milk. It makes the bath feel amazing…silky. The first time I made the recipe, the bath bombs working perfectly. Granted they are to big in my opinion. I used a 3” round mold. Going forward I will use smaller ones. Months later these bombs are obviously rock hard/dry, but still don’t float. I think they are just to big. I have made my recipe 2 more times with no success. They wouldn’t hold together. Watching this video I think it was the witch hazel. So I took the mix broke it all up and sifted it. Then poured it into cute tubs and sold it as a foaming milk bath. Same effect of a bath bomb, just not a ball shape.

Thanks for all of your videos!! I occasionally will have a bath bomb that once dry, is extremely light. What do you think might be the cause? Haven't made any in about a year, but I might try again. I got tired of being frustrated and dealing with the messes they make, lol. Love how cool they would turn out though when they did! :)
@CreativeBathLab

In my opinion a light bath bomb is a good thing. I know what you're talking about though. I don't know the reason why some are lighter/heavier. Like I said, those little buggers can be tricky!!

@ladymsoaps

My bath bombs last anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes. The ingredients you add will slow down or accelerate fizz. Things like slsa, corn starch, and cream of tar tar slows down the reaction in your bath bombs.
@user-bw9cn5lb3s

Decrease the amount of SLSA or just take it away so you can see the difference.
