PLEASE help me with BATH BOMBS


T~ Just T

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I am pulling my hair out trying to get my bath bombs correct. The problem is that they are not getting hard enough to stay stuck together. I CAN form them into balls, but they flake off and if I squish them between my thumb and index finger they turn back into powder. Here is my recipe... I appreciate any comments or help.

8TBSP Citric acid

6 TBSP Corn Starch

1 cup baking soda

5 TBSP Apricot Kernel oil

1 tsp FO

Again, any help is appreciated.

Terri,

I'm at work so I don't have my exact recipe in front of me, but that looks like a lot of oil for that size recipe.

Too much oil will keep them from hardening up.

Just a guess, but for that size recipe, I would say 1 tbsp. of oil would be plenty.
