Thank you Robyn this has been really helpful. I use both dyes and lakes. I have recently started blooming my dyes and my bath bombs are so vibrant.

Early on, I spray painted my faded bath bombs. Beats throwing out a batch.

Definitely! And sometimes I’ll still paint over a bath bomb if I know it’s going to fade!

Hi! Thanks for this video. I've seen this done using corn starch, too. Is it better to use baking soda?

[@BathFizzFoam]

You bloom your basking soda because it makes up over half the bath bomb recipe and will carry the most color!

[@SwashCross]

Hi! If the recipe calls for both corn starch and baking soda then will the corn starch dull the color? Could I just cut the corn starch by upping the other ingredients?

Hi Robyn!!! LOVE your videos. Thank you - content is SO helpful. Question - I use about 17g of poly 80 in my recipe (about 960g sod. bicar., for a 1420g total dry ingredients - including 4g lake) ... do you think I should be using more?! I don't wanna be that BB maker that f**ks up other peoples tubs. No thanks!! LOL (I've tested my bombs in my tubs... but you never know!) Just want to make sure. Thanks so much Robyn! 💚💜💙

Generally we suggest using Poly 80 at half the amount of your oils (including your EO/FO) rather than basing it off your dry ingredients. But as long as you have Poly 80 In there, it’s highly unlikely that you’ll mess someone’s tub up… red 27/28 are the most likely to be naughty though so it never hurts to add a little more for them 😉
