Tips for making bath bombs
The thing to remember is the recipe might take a little adjusting depending on the amounts your making and size of your molds. You need to get the bath balm recipe mixed into a consistency of almost wet sand. This honestly might be the biggest trick to how to get a good bath bomb. It needs to be damp enough to mold, yet dry enough and barely be wet. Not, dry sand and not fully wet sand. I share images of the consistency, hopefully that will help, along with following this bath bomb recipe recipe.
You’ll see when you mix it up. Once you see the consistency needed to get a great mold you’ll see that it’s really easy to make these bath fizzes. I wish this image shows how much this gold mica shimmers it’s amazing!
