Dec. 20th, 2005 09:58 pmI did my first run of bath bombs this evening using these instructions pretty much exactly as given.
So bath bombs are drying on cookie sheets now. Hopefully they should be dry enough by saturday so that I can try one this weekend.
- Roger had to look all over to find me the Borax. He was quite amused when he had a "20 mule team" in his car
- For dye I used McCormick Neon! Food Color & Egg Dye in green. I just used one drop though because it is radioactive green and I didn't want to scare people off. This was nowhere nearly enough though. Next time I will up this amount considerably.
- The oil I used was jojoba.
- I did use 1/3 c epsom salt, but did not seem to need extra oil.
- The scent was a mixture of 1/4 tsp each of Sweetcakes fragrance oils in Apothecary Lemon Verbena and Fresh Grass. In the liquids, before final mixing I wasn't thrilled, but after I made them up I kept thinking how much I liked it.
- made 5 60 mm bathbombs with very little left over
