Hi there, After so much trial and error I finally have a bath bomb recipe that works. However it uses Sweet Almond Oil. I had zero luck when using coconut oil. The almond oil is great but really expensive. I'm looking for tried and tested alternatives if anyone could kindly recommend please...

Hi there, i know this is a super old post but just taking a chance. Did you ever work out how to get them to dry faster? My bb wil eventually dry but they taking ages at the moment. I've tried clay, Epsom salts. Thanks so much.

I'm still experimenting. My first try didn't dry after even 48hrs. I tried again adding 1/2 cup cornstarch and decreasing the oil but they were too crumbly. Today I made a batch using a bit of alcohol. They're still drying but look nice and seem harder and less crumbly. But I'm definitely...

Hi there, i tried this recipe and it worked great. The only problem was thar 24hrs later they're still not dry. Is it normal for them to take 48hrs or more to dry completely? Could I try adding some corn starch? Do you think that might help them dry out faster? I truly appreciate your help.

Thank you so much. I'm going to try the alcohol rather. You're far more creative than me. I just want to get a perfect bath bomb like i used to. Without changing anything at all, my bombs suddenly won't work. One day they'll crack, the next day they'll have warts, the next day they just...

Thank you so much for the reply. I greatly appreciate it. I've also had problems with putting them in the fridge. I made a huge batch about a month ago and wrapped then im within a few hours but a few days later they were completely soft. It was a disaster. I've tried adding the citric...

Would putting the bath bombs in three fridge immediately after making them help with the humidity problem?

Hi there, I have tried everything and my bath bombs are still cracking. I've come to the conclusion that it must be the way i twist my moulds when I'm making the bombs. But how else do i get them to stick? I'm using custom moulds I've had 3D printed. I don't have a bath bomb press. I'd...

Thank you so much. I experimented with recipes with less moisture and they wouldn't stick together at all. What's perplexing me is that I literally used the same recipe for ages and never had a problem. Thank you so much. I really really appreciate it. I'm going to try this recipe. If I...

Thanks so much. My humidity hasn't changed. But i appreciate it!

Hi there, I'm desperate for some advice and guidance please. Until recently I always made perfect bath bombs using the recipe below. Now all of a sudden they're perfect until 24-48 hrs later when they get a giant crack in the middle. This is my recipe 1 cup baking soda 1/2 cup Epsom salts...
