Color Changing Bath Bombs
To all of my fellow diy-bath bombers, I pass on my knowledge and wish you the best of luck! I have been trying to make a decent bath bomb for several months now. Always small batches... and only when someone wants to take a bath, lol. While I seem to have a real knack for soapmaking, making bath bombs just isn't my forte. I found a great(?) recipe using baking soda, epsom salts, cornstarch, and citric acid. (I'll call it great because it is awesome in the bath). And I must have tried a dozen or more ways to hold them together. Too much oil and they are super soft; too much water and they fizz out asap; not enough oil or water and they either fall apart or won't form at all! I tried using coconut oil, olive oil, sweet almond oil, witch hazel - anything Google suggested might hold them together. Each time I ended up with another failed batch. Oh well, time to soak away another failure, lol. At least they still work in the tub even if they are not so ...
