It would have to be batch certified for use in bath bombs. I would probably go with no.
It's batch certified.. I realized the dye % is lower then other companies,so that why cheaper, assuming...thank you for responding πŸ‘

Check for Bath Bomb colorants. You don't want a bath that smells like rotten eggs, which can happen with some blue colorants that are NOT made for use in Bath Bombs. Plus, some non-bath bomb colorants will leave a hard-to-clean ring of color around the tub, so you really don't want to have to scrub the tub after every bath, right?

Exactly πŸ‘ that's why I'm asking.I don't wanna turn my grand daughter blue before 1st day of kindergartenπŸ˜‚.The pic on its side said can use in bath bombs but with poly 80.Wasn't sure why it was so cheap compared to Nature's Soap and others till I noticed the dye content between them,then πŸ’‘ went off..so would the lower dye make it a sky blue and it so can I get it to a dark blue,I'm sure a dumb question 😞and should go back to kindergarten with my grand daughter to learn my color palette πŸ™„..as for the rotten egg smell I learned about that yesterday,thanks to Southern Skye's Beauty in a bath bomb video explaining dyes,lakes and micas in bath bombsπŸ‘if not, I'd be like what😳..anyhow, I need to do this as wisely as I can thinking about going with Make Your Own Buzz to get my blue1 4oz for 16.49, red27 4oz for 32.00 and yellow 5 1lb for 51.95..then I seen a special if got 4 more 1 free so picked out some micas and really didn't care for them for a savings of 5.05😞. Keeping the lakes best price I seen with dye content πŸ˜‚ and can make more colors with those 3 when I learn my color wheel πŸ€” and for micas I'm going to look at Nature's Soap and see what I can find to put in both bb and CP soap like the free shipping over $30.00..but first I need to go through my FO and see what color would compliment the scent..wish the info for FO would say pink,green and yellow would look good with this,I'm not good at deciding always second guessing πŸ™„πŸ€”πŸ˜‚ anyhow still need to find a good recipe for high humidity Ohio so,got a ways to go.. sorry for the rambling and thank you for the information and more is welcomed πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘

For some reason this captivated me and I followed it all the way brilliantly, though I did see blue shopping carts floating around in my head. 😁

Keep going - you'll find the solution to making the most beautifully blue bath bomb for your grand-daughter, that won't also turn her blue. :)
