Thank you so much! ❤️ I've improved my process and formulation since this video as well-check out these updated bath bombs: www.humblebeeandme.com/ice-palace-bath-bombs/. Happy making!
Love it ! It just so happens our recipes are very similar, right down to almost the same percentages, except I use kaolin clay instead of cream of tartar
Ha, how funny, though I suppose it makes sense that we'd both land somewhere that works! I've been tweaking this formula for years and I'm sure I won't stop anytime soon 🙈
Hi Marie! Love watching your tutorials! I notice that you have epsom salt-what does it do in this particular recipe? I hear that a lot of people don’t put it because it attracts moisture and the amount used in bath bombs isn’t enough to get therapeutic benefits. Also you don’t use SLSA! I’m glad to find a recipe that doesn’t use it! I’ll try. Hopefully mine come out well!
These look so fun! I don't take baths anymore. We prefer showers. Having daughters, one of which is prone to UTI's it was advised not to. Anyways.... I do love a foot soak. I guess I could drop one in to a foot spa! I wonder if Shower bombs are a thing?? Like a tablet you lave in the bottom to disperse beautiful aromas!
@Melissa Sullivan Thanks for the confirmation! I would really love the aromatherapy benefit! I also am really considering using these as a weekly foot spa treat. So much more fun than plain old epsom salt soaks!
Thank you so much I'm going to give this recipe a try. If I don't have mica powder, can I put the .5% on the BS or CA, and just use a few soap coloring drops? I appreciate you, hugs from Texas! 💛

Doesn't the mica stain your bath tub/skin? Shouldn't it be replaced with water-soluble colors? Also, is 70% isopropyl alcohol enough to inhibit bacteria/mold/yeast growth?
You made a bath bomb with powdered milk. Could I use the powdered milk with this recipe? Of course I would substitute with different oils. What I’m saying is, could this recipe be a good base to add other ingredients?
I'd recommend starting with a formula that already includes powdered milk, like this one: www.humblebeeandme.com/milky-tea-bath-bombs/. Powdered milk can be a bit of a pain to work with in bath bombs as I find it weakens the structure of the bath bomb. Otherwise, yes, you could play with this formula as a base formula for different scents/colours/etc :)
I'm not sure. From my reading... maybe? It is also acidic, though apparently moreso-cooking guides suggest using half tartaric acid to replace cream of tartar. I'm not sure how it would contribute to the hardening/unmoulding of the bath bombs, though. Perhaps try it with a small batch and see? Happy making!
Will you be my Valentine in 2021? Also, do you have a video about making those solid bath oil melts that at available at Lush? I've tried a few recipes I've seen online but they aren't as good as the ones I was buying.
Hmm. As far as I can see/hear, I don't mention Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate (SLSa) anywhere in this formulation? It's not in the ingredient list, it's not mentioned or shown in the video, and from what I remember of using these bath bombs, they didn't foam. So, I don't think I forgot it-I don't think I ever included it anywhere. Can you please provide some sort of exact link to show where/why you're thinking of Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate (SLSa)?
Those look like thee best bath bombs I’ve ever seen!!!!! Blowing everyone else doing diy bath bombs out of the “water” !!!
Thank you so much! ❤️ I've improved my process and formulation since this video as well-check out these updated bath bombs: www.humblebeeandme.com/ice-palace-bath-bombs/. Happy making!
Ooh! The fizz is excellent. Love these bath bombs.
Ohhh... the fizz! Have you made them?
Love it ! It just so happens our recipes are very similar, right down to almost the same percentages, except I use kaolin clay instead of cream of tartar

💖💞So beautiful!!! Especially with the painted splashes on them! I love anything Mango 🥭 I bet these smell amazing!
Thank you so much!
Wow great advice with Tartar and love how you applied the colour and glitter. X
I know! The Tartar makes all the difference in the formula! Happy making!
They really were beautiful to look at!
Hi Marie bee this recipe came out really well

@@Monkeyingyang Thank you so much for the info!! I will look into that!

thank you so much
Thank you so much for sharing ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thanks for watching!
Excellent just loved it .
Thank you so much!
Is there a ‘natural’ alternative to Polysorbate 80 I could use? Will another liquid emulsifier to the job? Thanks 😊
Not that I know of-"natural" solubilizers usually contain water, which ruins bath bombs.
@@HumblebeeAndMe Thank-you.
@@HumblebeeAndMe Would DECYL GLUCOSIDE work?
Do You still use poly80? 😮
How many bathbombs does thus receipe make? I enjoy your videos very much.
Hi Carla!
It all depends on the size of mould you are using.
This is excellent 👍💕💕
Thank you so much!
Hi. I am confused how to keep it after making to harden ? Wrap in a cling film or openly?
Harden = dry. Leave 'em so they can dry :)
Many thanks for video, How much slc or slsa did you use please? Regards

Hi what can I substitute the Epsom salt with. If I don't want to use epsom salt.
Can u substitute the cream of tartar with something else?

Thank you for this recipe. Would kaolin clay be an appropriate substitute in the same amount?
An appropriate substitute for what?
For the cream of tartar (I'm assuming)
Doesn't the mica stain your bath tub/skin? Shouldn't it be replaced with water-soluble colors? Also, is 70% isopropyl alcohol enough to inhibit bacteria/mold/yeast growth?
Can I substitute the cream of tartar and epsom salts with colloidal oats?
I don't recommend it.

Hello Marie !
Can we substitute cream of tartar with tartaric acid ?

I'm not sure how it would contribute to the hardening/unmoulding of the bath bombs, though. Perhaps try it with a small batch and see? Happy making!
@@HumblebeeAndMe Thank you dear. I'll see what happens 🌸
Is this refined mango butter or unrefined? I love your videos, keep up the amazing work :)
It's always refined-I've never found unrefined for sale, so I don't even know what it's like.
Humblebee & Me ahh I have found unrefined butter on amazon, another TH-camr has recommended it before but it is hard to come by.
Will you be my Valentine in 2021?
Also, do you have a video about making those solid bath oil melts that at available at Lush? I've tried a few recipes I've seen online but they aren't as good as the ones I was buying.
I will keep it in mind! They do look like a lot of fun to play with :D Thanks for watching!

That's great although you forgot to add SLSA to the recipe listed below the video!

Also, the % add up to 100%-I'm pretty sure I didn't forget anything, or that number wouldn't be 100% :)
