For those of you who make bath bombs, can you share some of your secrets? I've been making them for a while and love them. But I want to start selling them, so need to get them, well, prettier.
1.) How do you stop them from settling and drying with a flattened bottom? I only have one mold, so can't let them partially dry before removing.
2.) I added kaolin clay, but still can't get that candy-smooth look. How in the heck to do you that?
3.) Most recipes call for about 2 ml fragrance per bath bomb(8 oz bomb). They smell great, but this sounds like a LOT of FO. How much do you use?
Here's a pic from today's batch.

Thanks for your help and any other pointers you are willing to share.
