I am still trying to understand these negative comments. I make bath bombs for a living and outside of the food coloring issue this was a great tutorial. Keep up the amazing work.
Thank you so much for sharing!!! I'm making some for Christmas and have never made them before. This is so simple and your tutorial covers all the bases! Wishing you a wonderful holiday season!
Great idea using the Christmas decoration for a mould I would never have thought of that I love the lavender bath bomb. You have inspired me to make my own. Thanks for sharing.
Just started my own beauty and self care line and definitely adding bath bombs to my list and they’re no hassle! Thank you! Love the gold one such a smart idea mama🔥💯❤️🤙☺️☺️
Do you by any chance have a larger recipe? I'd love to try it, but a lot of work/mess/effort for just one ball, would like to know how to double or even tripple the recipe to make a good few at once. TIA
Well, I live on an Portuguese island, where nobody really sells stuff like mica. If I would order it, it would cost me way too much, for something I can use this golden eyeshadow. That's why!
shianne810 Exactly! That was what I was trying to explain 😁 a 2:1 ratio is the basic one, 2:1.5 (? is that correct, we don't really use ratios over here 🙈) would be the 75% one, it's a bit more intense!
I tried it once with those bath gels you can use for tons of bubbles, and unfortunately it didn’t work. I noticed that water was pretty high in the ingredient list, so I think that’s the reason. Bath bombs react with even small amounts of water like crazy! 😞
That’s actually really interesting! To get the moisture you need, you could use witch hazel or rubbing alcohol, so it won’t affect the smell of the lush wash cards!
I wouldn't substitute the bath oil for essential oil, since too much essential oil can actually be irritating for the skin. But, that said, if you don't have bath oils, you can mix for example coconut oil (or almond oil, or similar) with some drops of essential oil, for that lovely smell! Bath oil was more of an alternative to not having to use a carrier oil + an essential oil 😁
Yes! These ingredients will give you around one 8cm bath bomb. Depending on your mixture, sometimes you end up with some left, but pop those into a ice cube tray and you get lil baby bath bombs 😊
I got mine from Amazon (link in description box, but if you are from the US, Kneipp is a bit more expensive over there)! But depending on where you live, you can get them at affordable beauty stores. In the US, Marshall's might have a few nice ones! As long as it is a bath oil (not a gel or similar, it has to be oil), it works perfectly! Hope that helps 😁
I looked in amazon but they didn't have the colored ones. I'll have to check the n Marshall's. It's funny, today I was coloring a bath bomb with shimmer eye shadow and I though it won't look good. Then I saw your video. Lol 😍 Thanks! Btw I had to edit this because spell check, really messed up what I wanted to say. lol I hate spell check sometimes. Lol
Btw, so sorry, I thought I had links in the description box 😂 I added them now, those are the ones I used. It's a different box, but the inside oils are exactly the same! But if you have a Marshall's nearby, definitely recommend looking there! And thank you so much ❤️
I have never tried olive oil, but considering it works with almond oil, it would have to work with olive oil. With coconut it works 100% 😊 I use bath oil because it has already everything: fragrance/essential oils, base oil and color 😋
omg... don't pack it. 80 % of your bombs will break. Made a lot of recipes, i think this one is kind of good, but just don't pack it. Fill both sides put a little more on the top and then just gently push both sides together. And don't spin ornament or mold in different sides while you are puting sides together. Good luck
No Problem 🙂 Based on the recipe I use in the Video, it's 1/2 of Baking Soda, and 1/4 or 1/3 of a cup of Citric Acid (I like to go for a bit more fizz, so I used a bit more than 1/3)!
Hm...maybe it depends on the food coloring? 🤔 I have heard that too, but after using it multiple times, it never stained my bathtub or my sink. I even mentioned that last year in a video I made: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-n0uTmlWM1_s.htmlm28s
The amount of Citric Acid we are working with does not require a mask. A mask would only be needed in case of an excessive air contamination, which is not the case here (mentioned on the packaging and I checked online). If any precaution, then it would be being careful not getting it into our eyes. But I think nobody likes Lemon juice in their eyes, so we are aware of keeping it away 😅
Citric acid is way stronger tho..It is concentrated powder.. I cant imagine it fizzing to well if you use juice..The citric acid can be bought online for only $3.50 per 1 pound bag at Brambleberry (dot com)..You only need maybe 1/2 cup per batch so it should make a few batches!..or get 2 bags for $7 so you can make a TON...They sell 10 lb bags for $22.00... relax guys
