How To Make Bath Bombs | DIY Bath Bomb Recipe

[@catharineemery6844]

My daughters have been interested in making these for a while so today we have made them using your instructions & tutorial. I managed to source the citric acid from an independent health food shop (was in the wine making section?!) and we used bicarbonate of soda. I had some rose essence left over from cake making. I used olive oil, but next time I will use almond oil as it isn't as strong smelling. We didn't have moulds so we used a silicone cupcake mould. Patted them down firmly and turned them out like sandcastles on some baking paper on a tray, to dry out. They look great & smell lovely. We are already discussing future designs & fragrances. Thank you for the tutorial. It has provided some entertainment on a wet afternoon in England!

[@Nevulost]

your a awesome mom to even look it up and do it!

[@shellytan2123]

Sunflower oil is also a very light oil that doesn't smell much. Citric acid can also be bought online from candy supply vendors, because it's used to add sourness to citrus candies.

Shelly Tan that last sentence explains everything.

I made these today with my daughter. It worked perfectly. We added orange zest and rose petals and it amped up the scents. This recipe made lovely bath bombs, and adding the water into the oil and food coloring mixture did not make the dry ingredients react before making the molds. It worked perfectly. I’ll be adjusting the added scents with other dried flowers in the future. Thank you for sharing your video.

[@jimenagensollen1702]

Hi! how many bombs did you get from this recipe? and how long did you leave them to dry?? thank you! :)

I made these today ( after a long and interesting search for citric acid) and I have to say, I love them! I didn't have much food colouring, so I used a red soap colouring, which worked just as well. I didn't use as much, because I wanted a lighter colour. It worked really well, the colour was a light marshmallow-pink. Awesome. I can't buy essential oils easily where I live (and shipping is a no-no) so I just used soap flavouring I found in my cupboards, in vanilla. The smell was just as amazing! I was super happy! I used almond oil instead of olive oil, as I find it a bit more moisturising and I didn't have the oilyness from the essential oils. I found that the mixture was a bit dry though, so I added one or two more teaspoons of almond oil and it was perfect. I also couldn't find a mould anywhere in any of the shops and as I said, shipping was too complicated for where I lived so i tried using silicone cupcake moulds. Well, lets just say those FAILED EPICLY. LOL. I dug around in my cupboards and found a smallish bowl and an eggcup. I followed your instructions on removing the mould and they worked perfectly. The mixture was enough for 10 large bombs and 2 smaller ones. Nearer to the end, I started playing around with them by adding sprinkles into the bottom of the mould and into the mixture. They were even more beautiful than the others! Success! I am now looking forward to a future of vanilla-cupcake-marshmallow baths. Thank you so much for your awesome tutorial, it was so helpful. The bath bombs turned out beautifully!

another thing you can use for a mold is those plastic eggs you get from Easter time.

Wanted to do this 4 years back.. Bought the ingredients but left inside cupboard and realised it was there today! Oh well. Corn Starch (exp 2017) and Citric acid (exp 2018) had expired.. Any idea if these still be use for making bathbomb now?

[@CoffeeQueen90]

I made a bath bomb for the first time using a recipe I found. It was 1 cup baking soda, 1 cup epsom salt, 1/2 cup corn starch; food coloring (for color), 3/4 tbsp water, 1 tbsp coconut oil, and 1/2 cup lemon juice. I didn’t add epsom salt (forgot to) and not enough lemon juice (for liquid). Mine fell apart. How do I measure out enough ingredients so that it doesn’t happen again or where did I go wrong, where the fell apart after they dried and taken out of the mold?

[@spottedstar1123]

tip: instead of getting a mold, you could use an egg poacher or a plastic easter egg

Yes

Parker Best this comment made me laugh for no reason

[@TheKrazysinner]

well sort of, it should fizz like crazy and dissolve into the water. not really explode lol

[@ugi991]

it will fizz a little because it has baking soda :)

[@elisegetson7457]

Unless you have citric acid this will bot fizz it will just blend into the water.the baking soda dosent set off the reaction the citric acid and bake ing soda do.

[@luanneroeder6245]

Could yu jus put it all in a jar and sprinkle in tub when u bath?

ok for us folks that are not bakers the recipe is 1 cup baking soda, 1/2 cup citric acid, 1/2 cup corn flour, 1/2 cup epsom salts, 1 tsp water, 2 tsp essential oil or 10ml, 3 tsp olive oil, and coloring.

The acid store

[@nikkia2452]

Online or stores that sell in bulk like Bulk Barn for example and some grocery stores.

[@AndreaEnke]

Amazon

[@shariwilkerson8534]

you can actually use limon juice.

[@AndreaEnke]

lemon juice will cause the reaction because its wet. dry citric acid works best

Can you do a demo of this in the water please

what chould i do when it's finished? do i must put it in the bath? it does not fall apart? looks awesome! sure i'm gonna try it!

[@recipesbycarina]

amboriginal coppens Leave them to dry over night then they're ready to be put in the bath :)

[@jazzyjaz8284]

Will it crumble when you take the mold off? After you put the mixture in the mold and tap it with a spoon, do you take the mold off right after?

[@audryblackard2337]

can you use bath salts? instead of Epson salts?

[@gabbyharper9764]

Does it crumble when you touch them?

[@hellychoksi]

Let it cure for a week and it won't.

[@brandynettleton1658]

It doesn't take a week to hold shape. They don't require curing. Curing is a product that is unsafe to use immediately. These are not unsafe, they just aren't dry. I leave mine in the mold maybe 5 minutes and carefully remove from the mold as she showed. Within a few hours you can package them and they are harder. Within a day or two they should be very hard, which is a good thing! =o)

As a retired chef this was a nice alternative to my usual recipes... First attempt went well. BUT...some of them had cracking around the center as they dried. I packed them really tight. Any suggestions? Does freezing them as some have mentioned improve them?

Try adding a small amount less liquid, it sounds like they are reacting as they are drying. You could try the freezer, that may stop them reacting 😊

ok thx. Instead of using the coconut oil cuz I thought the fragrance would clash with the lavender I used shea butter instead. Thoughts?

I also used fine sea salt instead of Epsom salt. I add even more oil and water becouse bombs were breaking all the time. So that way i succeeded.

[@chastity2841]

I don't have dry citric acid. Could I use lemon juice in the liquid instead? How much?

[@mallorynicole7355]

Sarah K That's what I'm gonna try doing. I looked it up and you need 1 tbsp for every 1/4 teaspoon of citric acid. So I think you would need about 6 tbsp of lemon juice for this (113g converts to about 23 tsp).

[@mallorynicole7355]

Sarah K I'm quite bad at math though so I would double check if I were you xD

[@faberryspork]

Sarah K be safe and use the citric acid. lemon juice will not work because it's not pure.

[@whitepetalspearlssoap9836]

+Mallory Dinkins No. It will make your dry ingredients react with all of that juice.

[@LilianWithers]

My first attempts are still not fully dry and as I feared they have flattened out, changing from a ball shake to a 'bun' shape. The only thing I can think that I may be doing wrong is in the amount of food colouring. I've added 1/2oz tub (I think that's approx 14.1g). Can you suggest a remedy? Do I cut down on the amount of food colour (and thereby lessen depth of colour) or could I lessen possibly, the amount of olive oil or water?

[@LilianWithers]

+Wolfie Yay thank you ever so much for your tip. Ive discovered that if I leave them in the mild in fridge for half hour it makes all the difference. I will have to buy more Molds then to allow me to make more than 1 every half hour lol. 🤓

I made these the other day and used only a few drops of essential oils, lime, grapefruit and lemon, some green food coloring, and witch hazel instead of water. I shaped them in easter eggs seeing as it was so close to easter, but they ended up setting off the chemical reaction and the plastic egg halves popped off by the next day (I left them on the bath bombs instead of taking them off right away). Can you advise what I did wrong, maybe I needed more oil? Also I used a spray bottle to mist the mixture instead of just pouring my mixture in. Looks like yours started to fix upon initially adding it to the mixture, what made the fizzing reaction stop?

Janis Brooks Mixing it as quickly as possible stopped the reaction occurring. It sounds like you may have had too much liquid. You want enough liquid so the mixture will clump together, no more. Maybe try making it again, it can be hard to get it perfect :)
