      @@DeanWilson Hello! I have a question. I'm making a Bath bomb to soak foot and relief pain. In my country I can't find the SLSA ingredient. it's neccesary if I don't need a lot of bubbles. or do you have a recipe for Soak foot bath bombs? Thank you

    This is the best bath bomb recipe ever. I've made it several times and have never had a problem with it. Even the first time I made them they came out great. No adjustments were needed. I followed Dean's instructions meticulously.

      Making lots of goodies for my family (candles, lip balms, etc) and they're asking for bombs and steamers. I heard that you have the best bath bomb recipe and it seems like it, hands down. Can't wait to try it! I've been looking for a great shower steamer recipe and none have come close to the care and technical detail or your recipes. What would you recommend we change for this bath bomb recipe to make a good shower steamer? In my personal "arsenal" I've got everything but SLSA, but would love to hear what you would do differently with steamers =)

    Dean I want to thank you for providing your recipe! I subbed 50% avocado oil and 50% cocoa butter for the almond oil and it worked so very well! The bombs float, spin and produce some nice frothy bubbles and great fizz. It's not too greasy...just enough to be moisturizing. The scent amount is spot on too. Thanks a bunch for sharing this!

    This is a great video and your bombs are lovely!!! A suggestion for those having a difficult time molding i.e. too dry or too wet of mixture. I add my wet ingredients first but I don't add alcohol or water. I mix the dry and the wet ingredients, then I spray with alcohol to make the mixture just moist enough to be able to squeeze the mixture in my hand until it is like damp sand. I mold with stainless steel molds, tap, tap, tap, and they come out easily. Depending on your climate you may need more or less liquid. I live in FL so my ingredients aren't as dry as they would be elsewhere. I think that trips a lot of people up. In other words, it's a dance of balance between the wet and dry ingredients. You may have to adjust the liquids slightly for your climate. I hope this helps! ♡

    I got a good tip from someone i dont remember who but they said that they mix all the wet ingredients in with the baking soda then add the measured citric acid to prevent a reaction because everything is already absorbed in the baking soda.

    Amazing video, thanks for sharing!! What about if I don't have polysorbare?

    • @DeanWilson
      @DeanWilson  7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Polysorbate-80 helps the mica and oils not stick to the surface or bath tub. You can use soap friendly liquid dye if you dont have it.

    • @Sumalisa
      @Sumalisa 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dean Wilson thanks a million for the quick response, I wasn't expecting one at all to be honest, coz most people don't reply! So if I skipped it, it won't effect the final texture of the bath bombs?

    Hello Dean! I've been watching your videos for a little while and admire your work. I really want to thank you on some items with your bath bomb tutorial. 1 - I truly appreciate the time you took with this recipe. I have used several and could not get them to work as my material was too wet or too dry. Just a chore to deal with. I found that yours was easy to work with and I was able to make 7 medium bombs.
    2- I appreciate the time that you took to convert this recipe to US Customary table. I had no issue with the fractions and am grateful for the time you took to convert it!
    Thanks and I'll keep watching.

  • @anneoneil2848
    @anneoneil2848 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This recipe sets very hard, very quickly Dean... my only issue is that I don't have enough moulds to leave them sitting inside half of one to dry and when I placed them on foam with cling film over it, they still went slightly flat (or more misshapen) at the bottom. No other complaints about them though... fastest drying recipe I have ever sampled :D

    • @DeanWilson
      @DeanWilson  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I started to put cling film over muffin trays and place the bath bombs on that. They bend to the shape of the cling so they dont distort.

  • @Iris-yr9fe
    @Iris-yr9fe 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Dean I love watching your videos! Instead of using SLSA to make the bubbles could you add a little bit of liquid bubble bath or Castile soap to the wet ingredients?

    • @DeanWilson
      @DeanWilson  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have tried to add bubble bath to my bath bombs but because its more a liquid it does not merge into the power, it just makes the bath bomb wet and it doesn't not stick together. I don't know about castile soap but i think it would be the same. I think from memory, butter milk powder might be an option but look it up first as I have never tried it.

    @renalee9683 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hi Dean...your video is so easy to follow. I have but a couple of questions.
    1. The ingredients you stated in your recipe, is there substitute for a more common product?
    2. Is there a reason why you put the SLSA last as you mentioned that it could make one cough if inhaled. Why not place the SLSA first and be covered by the baking soda, Epsom Salt, citric acid..etc...?

    • @DeanWilson
      @DeanWilson  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks Rena.
      1. I don't know of any ingredients to sub for what I used, Critic acid, baking soda etc needs to be used.
      2. You can use either way. Just my process. :)

    • @DeanWilson
      @DeanWilson  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you. I have tried water and witch hazel but they both seem to activate the powders so rubbing alcohol is my preferred option for binding the powders together.

    Hi Dean, I've tried your recipe twice now and I can't seem to get them to harden. The only difference I did was using avocado in place of the almond. I don't know how hard to pack. Although they seem to float, I don't know if the reason is that I need a harder packing? The recipe is really nice! I used Irene of Body BonBon's mold and they look awesome. I also did put them into the container as you do. Any help would be great. I only make them for myself and my kids, and really appreciate all your hard work and the opportunity of the recipe!

    • @DeanWilson
      @DeanWilson  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have heard this from a few people too. The weather in your area can effect the drying time of these bombs. If there is moisture in the air they might take longer to dry. Apart from that it's hard to say. How long has it been since you made them?

    • @thesoaplady7807
      @thesoaplady7807 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's only been 24hrs since I made them. I thought they should be hard in 24hr so I tested one and it fell apart. I figured they all would fall apart so I tested all of them and they did. So, I guess I should have left them??

Your bombs seem to be harder then the other recipes out there. Have you had problems with rain/ humidity? I hope I don't have to wait for a dry day because that could be months. :/

    • @DeanWilson
      @DeanWilson  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I never make them in the rain, too much cold air and water in the air which can set off the bombs on the surface. You can try it but I would quickly pack them into a sealed plastic air tight box like the one at the end of my video and sit them in a dark place for a few days. Im sure you will be fine.

      Citric acid should be powder. You can skip SLSA (it makes more bubbles) but the bath bomb will work fine without it.
      If your using mica then you really need poly-80 to help it not stick to the tub, it also disperses the oils on the surface. But give it a try without it.
