Here is a picture of Some I recently made.. they hold there shape good.. but you can squeeze hard and they will break in your hand

Yes.. it makes it emulsify.. and not have a slippery tub.. or your body feel oily.. it will probably cut down on the bubbles..

here is my recipe..i like it for conditioning.. and it does bubble pretty good.. but the bombs do not get as hard as I wish.. weather does have a effect even on that.. 15oz. baking soda 6 oz. epson salt 3 oz. citric acid 3 oz SLAS 1 oz corn starch mix well Add 2 oz. of the prepared mixture below.. 1 oz. cocoa butter...( this is probably why they don't get hard enough..by reading Talltayl's post) .5 oz of whatever type of oil you want .5 oz poly 80 1 oz fragrance.. pick it apart..tell me what you think could be better.. i am always open to ideas..

your colors are so vibrant..love them
-
those look like a real scoop of ice cream.. i really like your colors. question? do you have trouble with your colors fading over time? I do..when i first make my bath bombs the colors will be so pretty and vibrant, but within a month they really start to fade.. I am using top quality of micas.. is there a better colorant for bath bombs?

if you are on the west coast, they do also ship from reno.. so that helps shipping a little bit.. i try to wait an order so i can do 200 lb weight, it really brings the shipping down too. i get my wax, and jars, and several of the fo's I also have my family and friends on alert if they go to reno to pick up for me..
-
your table setup looks wonderful... very eye appealing..
-
This one sounds good Barbara.. i I am finding I love scents with a pine type smell
-
Thanks, please post your results.. i would buy an try a different wax, if I thought it would work.. just for this one fragrance.
-
Hey.. wanted to ask is any of you that make candles... have anyone been able to make this without a fuel smell? i believe it is one of my favorite scents.. i use soy 415 an cd wicks.. i would even buy a different wax just for this, if I could make it work for me.. i would appreciate any feedback on it, if you have had good luck
-
I am testing a new one from AH/RE right now and loving it.. Carmel cafe.. not to sweet, to me s perfect blend of coffee an sweet.. it has a wonderful HT.. i use Soy 415
-
if you are wanting soaping molds, nurture has some great ones too..
-
The Fiji date & lemon is good in everything I have used it in... I want to try it next in cp soap.. love it
-
Just wanted to share some testing I have done with some new fragrances mostly from AH.. I use 415 soy..use a ratio of 1 ounce per pound.. snow covered pines: awesome ht snow kissed sugar type:good ht..awesome on a hot plate beachwood vetiver .. has a powerhouse ht and love love it celebrate christmas: good ht tinsel tree: awesome ht. Of those that remember Bert's Aspen Forest this reminds me a lot of that one except I believe this one is a little sweeter smelling.. fiji date & lemon peel: smells great has a softer ht.. absolutely awesome in a sugar scrub and also wonderful in melt and pour soap.. ambre Lumiere type: Love love this scent softer hot throw ..smells wonderful on a hot plate Sweet Cakes: country Christmas smells awesome has a great ht
-
I have never tested candle science to know if they compare, but Bittercreek has one that has a wonderful HT in my 415 soy
-
If you do try the balsam citrus from elements ? you also should try their tropical white mask it does wonderful in CP soap and has a wonderful hot throw in 415 soy
