If you hear people complain about bath bombs fizzing out too quickly or hardly any scent in the bath bomb, try using Natrasorb Bath.

Thank you so much for posting your videos. I’m a candlemaker and am expanding into soaps. Your videos are more informative than some others. I’ve learned so much from you. ❤

[@TheSoapChef2]

Thank you Tam, and welcome

[@bridgetgagnon3174]

Another amazing video. Thank you :)

[@debbiestelle3181]

I loved this video. You are so succint at teaching how to do a particulair technique. Thank you for the tip on making body powder. I forgot I had ordered a bucket of natrasorb and when I opened the bucket I couldn't remember what I was going to use it for. I was thinking arrowrootpowder, kaolin clay,natrasorb, and essential oils for a body powder. The last I made I ended up dumping as it clumped under evry crack it found moisture and that is not a good feeling. Any othr ideas from anyone that makes body powder please advise any help you can. Thank you so much.

[@TheSoapChef2]

The natrasorb should absolutely help with the clumping issue. I would try it let it dry overnight and then stick it in a grinder to make a nice fine powder.

Hello. Is tapioca starch the same as natrasorb? Thanks for the informative video. Im learning alot.

[@TheSoapChef2]

@@craftsmadepersonal1096 no it’s not. They’re processed differently

[@craftsmadepersonal1096]

@TheSoapChef2 Thank you

[@SwashCross]

Wow Natrasorb Bath is pricey! Do you have a supplier you'd recommend? It seems like it's out of stock or wildly expensive everywhere I've seen Really appreciate your expertise - I've learned a lot!

[@TheSoapChef2]

Natrasorb is a wonderful ingredient to use in products to retain your scent but yes, it’s extremely expensive. You can get it at wholesale supplies plus, make your own . Buzz, the sage.com, camdengrey., candlecocoon, voyageursoapand candle. The cheapest place I have found it was spiraleye.

[@SwashCross]

@@TheSoapChef2 wow spiraleye is a hidden gem - thank you!

[@TheSoapChef2]

@@SwashCross they are usually the cheapest on powdered surfactants as well

[@MulberryDogwoodSoapCo]

Is slick fix comparable to Natrasorb Bath?

[@TheSoapChef2]

I can’t speak on that because I’ve never worked with that product so I don’t know how it performs
