Hi Vee,
I understand your post is from 2018; however, if you receive this, would you pls send your recipe? Thank you. Sue

Worst advise ever………Wholesale Soaping has a calculator for essential oils……..for bath bombs, soap, lotion etc.

I recommend 20-30 drops in total. You don’t want to add too much moisture as it may cause unintended fizzing.

Maybe try jojoba oil.

In our household we have allergies to coconut, tree nuts, peanuts, cashews, pitted fruits, pineapple, tomato, mango, papaya, and wheat.

Thanks.

I can get you the best oil available. Sharry_rose@yahoo.com

I am sorry but doctor axe does not answer the questions, other customers do. You can put however much as you would feel like it.

SLS is always bad for you. :( I haven’t made bath bombs yet. Plan on doing so soon though. The fizzing comes from the reaction of the bath bomb and the water in the bath tub.

I use nothing more than citric acid, baking soda, almond oil, essential oil of choice, and a TINY spritz of water to make my bath bombs. So far, I have had no problems and I’ve made loads of them.

If your mixture is fizzing then you need less liquid ingredients. I had a hard time finding the right balance but got it on the 3rd try! You can always add more liquid so start with very little. It also helps to use a hand mixer while you are adding the liquids. Good luck:)

I know this is late and your granddaughter is surely feeling better by now but this may help later. When I don’t feel well, I like to use lavender, ginger, and chamomile oils. These help me relax enough to sleep and the ginger and chamomile both help settle the tummy. When I have a cold or feel achy, I use a blend of peppermint and eucalyptus oils. Be careful though, too much of these oils can make your skin feel too minty and cold.
The beetroot for color is actually a powder. You can find it online. I’m not sure how well the canned beets would work. You could maybe substitute some of the juice for the water or witch hazel. The color is just for looks, so I usually omit it.
Good luck with your bombs.

I love this recipe. I so glad I caught this episode I was watching recipes to make for my granddaughter she is 11 yrs old , and was wanting me to make some. I’m new at the whole bath bombs making , but I do use essential oils also her teacher keeps a disfusser in the class room. She is 11 yrs old her an her mom both buys and, uses them from a well known bath store. I have all the information you just gave out so that makes me happy about that, but know I’m concerned about what she already used. Right know she is sick I’m praying it’s not the flu besides I hate to see her sick and praying it’s not the flu I have MS know for over 15 yrs and Im not sure if I can be around her know. Thank you for all you information on the benefits of essential oil I have to take a lot of medication I hate and strong pain meds, depression and anxiety several. But I have to say I have made me a spray with oils that has kept me pretty much pain free with my legs is what hurt the most and frequently I glad to say after a week I’ve done well. I have two questions I used Skin So Soft and I’m sure you know who the company that makes it I do love it because it a light oil not heavy and great for my very dry and itchy skin from my MS. Is that oil ok to use. Also you said beetroot for color I’m sure the beets thats purchased in the can isn’t the same because of the ingredients to help with self life should I be concerned about using that? Also my son just called and the Dr. called in Tamaflu in for my granddaughter is there any oils that can help at this point with her already that’s meds. Thank you very much for sharing on youtube I have benefited from your knowledge of being healthy and I’m trying. Thank you Lorrie

I’m sure they meant epsom salt; It is magnesium sulphate.

All regular “salt”…..table salt, sea salt…..is sodium chloride. No magnesium at all.

Hey! So you’re saying follow the recipe but omit the cornstarch and tartar?? Just wanting to make sure before trying to make these at home!

He did indicate that the sea salt was a good source of magnesium. It has a denser structure than the epsom salt – maybe that’s the reason?

Maybe you could try Arrowroot? I use that in place of corn starch in some of m recipes.

My thought as well. Is there any reason why you didn’t include epsom salt in this mix? I would think the added magnesium would be so great!!
