I know this took a long time to make and you made it so easy to understand and so pretty at the same time! As a beginner bath bomb maker, this video has been most helpful! Thank you so much!
Dora , thank you sooooo much for sharing your educated knowledge with us all. Love watching your videos. Easy to understand and follow and love how you get straight to the point using short videos
I just found your channel 😩😩 I’m so glad I did you’ve saved me so much time and trials and errors !!! I just made soap now it’s time for bath bombs 🎉 thanks so much for you videos 😊
Im most definately in a journey here of nailing down my go to bomb..so far..pretty frustrated so im just gonna keep experimenting and with your videos its soooo super helpful! Thank You!💥🛀
Thanks so much. I usually buy people LUSH bombs for Christmas but it's so expensive. Next year I'm going to make them myself! I guess I have a year to practice.
I am so happy to have come across your channel. Thankyou so much fro this demonstration- it's fantastic! Previous bath bombs i've mde have been duds, but you explain everything so well. I'm excited to give it all another go x
This was fabulous. I liked your single ingredient test methodology and your scoring calculations and categorization of result types. I'm a new subscriber and have enjoyed all of your content I have seen so far. I find your videos understandable, approachable, and of course pretty and fun to watch.
I love love love your videos... I just had to comment! I come back over and over again just to make sure... Lol! I just made a batch of Bath Bombs for my sister using your techniques... And O my goodness... They turned out Fabulous! I will continue to come back and back again... Just wanted to say... Thanks!
Yep it’s me again giving you major 👍🏻 as usual lol.....I so appreciate you for all your hard work, research & awesomeness! Amazing job my soul sistah. Always love getting a break away from my own concoctions & mad science experiments & just sit back & enjoy your videos. I’ve had some major humidity get to some of my salt cakes so they decided to grow & crawl out of their molds....it was kinda funny because they were supposed to be bears ( they ended up looking like some huge marshmallow michellan man)! 🙄
Always love hearing from you! Yeah girl, I get it! LA is a big sloppy swamp so I have the same issues... It's all good though! With this sort of thing, you can't win them all & stuff will go wrong. All you can do is learn from it & move on. Glad you liked the video!
I live in Australai and get a lot of humidity - we have a dehimidifier that removes an amazing amount of moisture from the air when on. Maybe you could give one a go when drying them?
Hello Dora, I’ve said it before you are the queen of bath bomb making. I need help, I have a 4 yr old grandson and he loves bubbles which recipe can you tell me to make so I can make bath bombs for him. I really appreciate your help in this. Ty so much
Thank you so much for uploading these! I wouldn't have thought to try gelatin powder or the gums. Do they leave a film or solid bits? And would you need to multiply the measurements by how much is in each batch? Also, are these tested by themselves or with the base batch that has poly 80? Thank you!
Great questions - The batch that I made them from did contain a bit of poly (recipe in description). Sodium alginate/x gum/guar gum left a bit of jelly foam. But all the jelly foam dissolves eventually. The meringue did have some little bits of color that was left.... But, I'm not sure if that was from the color itself though.
@@CreativeBathLab Is it safe to say that the gelatin didn't add much fizz, foam, or jelly, then, if there was already poly 80 in the batch? It's so easy to find locally that I want gelatin to be an awesome one. 😂 Thanks again for making this video--these are SOOO helpful
@@minervamaximilian1923 absolutely not! The guar gum, and Knox gelatin helped give the poly a boost. Safe to say that without the gum, or gelatin, the poly would be useful at its normal capacity. Which isn't bad but also not the best.
I suck at math but based on the ingredient list if I wanted to use the guar gum as my ingredient and wanted to use the recipe listed above in the description how much would I add instead of just making one individual bomb at a time? I hope this isn’t a stupid question but I’d like to just make a whole batch of this and see if I like this better as a recipe versus the other one that I have used.
I wish I had rewatched this tutorial before making bombs today...I need to cut back on the SLSA and corn starch...The bombs I make are good but they are kind of lackluster after the first minute!!!
Yaaay your back, I hope all is well over there. And as always your awsome, by the way I tried the lollipop bubble baths just having a hard time keeping the stick on it lol but its still awsome
@Creative Bath Lab Ma'am your video is amazing so you are! Ma'am I would like to ask, what do you prefer most, what do you think is the best to use among all?
PAAAMMMM!!!! I feel like I haven't spoken to you in FOREVER! After hurricane Ida came thru here everything was crazy... Took a minute to get back situated!
Hi, great experiment and thank you so much for sharing, you are the best. I will use your recipe and I will test to see what I like more :). The specific ingredients will be: Xanthan/ Guar/Coco Betaine/ Coco Glucoside. For dry ingredients is not clear for me how many grams means ½ tsp (your model). Could you please help me? Thank a lot!
I know this video is now a year old but I hope you see this comment. This is the most informative short video I’ve watched on this subject I have a little knowledge on formulating and I was wondering how other powders would work in the bath bomb, considering no one else has videos about it. You don’t understand how important this video is to me. 💜💜💜
I was also waiting to see if you'd be experimenting with powder milk, as well as Coco Betaine. Curious to see how those would turn out compared to your other experiments
can u pls try the decyl glucoside and coco glucoside bath bomb? i really love how the bomb looks composed while dissolving in the water from each side, plus the lather and foam r exquisite. would really enjoy that
Thank you so much for your videos. I’m new at this and plan to test myself . I watched this video and the first part , But I was a little confused as to what ingredients can be used for the interior and exterior of the bath bomb . I liked the look of the guar gum and Knox gelatin but was confused if it went in the interior or exterior of the bath bomb if that makes sense. Thanks a bunch .
U can use any ingredient for inside or outside it just depends on what you want. these videos are simply to demonstrate which ingredients cause which reactions. but I suggest any ingredient that makes a slow foamy or lathery reaction should go on the outside any ingredient that’s very vigorous bubbly and fizzy should go on the inside, but again this is up to you
Hi Dora! On your chart what is that one added with the Guar gum? "Guar Gum + COTx2?" I can't seem recall an ingredients that starts with COT. Thank you!
I had no idea you could use Guar Gum on bath bombs, and I've always had in on hand! TY so much for this informative video. How do you recon a combination of Guar & SLSa would turn out?
I actually did it! I did lots of other experiments, but I cut out the ones that were basically the same. G gum & SLSA is basically the same as SLSA (1/2 tsp.), maybe a bit bubblier (like a smidge).
Hey my beautiful Dora I emailed u to see how u n ur family was doing .. been thinking of u n hope all is well since the storm n ur life is back to normal . We had lots of rain here in pa the hospital I work for got flooded like crazy manholes covers blew off so ppl cars got bad damage they said it had a small tornado but I have no idea wasn't on my side ... But all is well more rain again today n possible tornado but so far ass is well love u girl great video n who left a thumbs down .smh ..
Hi, I'm a new subscriber to your channel and loving your videos! thank you for generously sharing your knowledge :) I'm wondering if there is any way to help speed up the drying time - like putting the bombs in a warm (but not hot) oven? learning so much from you and can't wait for my ingredients to arrive so I can start making my first batch!
So happy to have you! Yes, that or dehydrate them. HOWEVER, cure the bombs at least 24 hours BEFORE moving them or drying them out! They are fragile during this time & if you up & move them anywhere, they might break!
New subscriber here and thanks so much for this thorough video! I am wondering if you ever tested your bath bombs with either solid embeds or embed powder and how that affected your favorite bubbly ingredient.
Can you tell me if you did this in a suburban setting or city because the different watergrids in different cities can have very different effects on how the water reacts to the ingredients? Also, wanted to note that allowing SLS, SLSA into the water grid is bad idea health-wise, feel free to message me directly if you agree.
@@shauneriver3973 I would measure the weight of the base mix first. In the video she may add 1 tsp of something to a 3 oz bomb. So if your whole batch of dry mix weighed 30oz ... then you would just 30 teaspoons ( but work out the equivalent in oz). you just need to work it out. Once you've done it for your recipe, you won't have to work it out again
How much are you using of each "testing" ingredient? How do you keep the rest of the recipe the same if the testing ingredient is a liquid vs a dry ingredient? Wouldn't you need to add more or less of your other liquids? I'm currently doing this same i ingredient testing for myself and I'm confused. Lol
Hy mam love u from pakistan i m learning u please help me and cab u make one video for me give me some easy racipies of scrubs and other products because i want start my small bisniss of ur racipies can i start?

Used this video thanks... settled on the guar gum. btw are you from New Orleans you have a particular accent that reminds me of home?
Yaaay your back, I hope all is well over there. And as always your awsome, by the way I tried the lollipop bubble baths just having a hard time keeping the stick on it lol but its still awsome
Yes girl- finally! lol I was going crazy on hiatus!
@Creative Bath Lab Ma'am your video is amazing so you are!
Ma'am I would like to ask, what do you prefer most, what do you think is the best to use among all?
Guar gum is good. But it’s all about the reaction you’re going for
Thanks so much for your knowledge and your appreciation for bath bombs. You take so much time sharing! Thanks again!
My pleasure!
Thank you so much, Dora, this helps all of us out so much.

Dora, you're awesome 🌟
Thank you, for always sharing such great information and tips!
You are so welcome!
THIS IS SO HELPFUL THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
Hello thank for the education. When do I add in the Guar gum ? With dry ingredients right ? Thanks
God bless you
And you!
You’re basically a scientist.
So helpful. I thought of doing something similar for myself but you nailed it.
Awesome!
You are the best, thank you for uploading this and sharing your knowledge!
😉
Very informative as always, thanks for sharing
YW
Good afternoon. I have a question. If I use the guar gum in my bath bomb, would I still need to add SLSA?
You can. They both do different things
Amei os resultados 👏🙂
Such a great video. Thankyou for sharing 💐💐💐💐
My pleasure 😇
Oh never mind I watched you before. I bought the lollipop mold. Your stuff is beautiful!
Lol thanks so much!
This Channel is the bomb
😊
Your channel popped up in the recommended yesterday and I am now a new subbie👍🏽
Awesome! So glad to have you!
I was also waiting to see if you'd be experimenting with powder milk, as well as Coco Betaine. Curious to see how those would turn out compared to your other experiments
I have boo! On my last video (it’s listed in description!)
can u pls try the decyl glucoside and coco glucoside bath bomb? i really love how the bomb looks composed while dissolving in the water from each side, plus the lather and foam r exquisite. would really enjoy that
Love this! Thx!!
Glad you like it!
That was fun. I got some SLSA recently. Either the stiff i got wasnt any good or SLSA is over hyped. I wasnt impresed.
Ty! You are second person to say that & I’ll have to do testing or something. But, remember your water pressure has to be good to make lots of bubbles
Hi Dora!Thank you for another helpful experiment! I would like to know do you use cold water or warm water to test the bombs?thanks!
My pleasure. I ALWAYS use warm or hot water when doing ANYTHING! I find warm-hot water will activate stuff better... especially scrubs, soap, etc.
@@CreativeBathLab Thank you for prompt reply!

I love your videos!!! TY. I’m going to try the Guar gum. Would you use it along with Polysorbate or alone?
TY! Definitely with poly! Always with poly!!!’
Ok, so I tried with Poly and Guar Gum, exactly as listed but mine seem to fiz but really no bubbles or foam. What am I doing wrong? 😕
Hi Dora! On your chart what is that one added with the Guar gum? "Guar Gum + COTx2?" I can't seem recall an ingredients that starts with COT. Thank you!
Cream of tartar. Please know that the chart is just an example of how to grade/rate ingredients.

Well done 👩🏼🔬🛁👏🏻
Thank you. Nope
bubbles nice
Thanks!
Amazing!!!

New subscriber here and thanks so much for this thorough video! I am wondering if you ever tested your bath bombs with either solid embeds or embed powder and how that affected your favorite bubbly ingredient.
Yes I have, of course! I have 75 bomb videos- lots of them with embeds!
Hi Dora. As a thickening agent, would guar gum be comparable? Maybe silly question 🙋♀️
Oopsie I went back in vid and seen
😉
Any way of posting the full recipe with the xanthan gum ingredient? Im a little confused☺️
I’m sorry you are confused. I did post the recipe. Then I showed you guys how I made each bath bomb, using that ingredient
These are great but what is polysorbate 80....I wish these were explained with 'real' terms.
An emulsifier
Can you tell me if you did this in a suburban setting or city because the different watergrids in different cities can have very different effects on how the water reacts to the ingredients? Also, wanted to note that allowing SLS, SLSA into the water grid is bad idea health-wise, feel free to message me directly if you agree.
Thank you. So if you use your recipe how much do you add one of those added ingredients?
Hey there. Recipe is in description! I’m not sure I’m a regular recipe, I haven’t done the math!
Creative Bath Lab so if I use that recipe how much say I want to use Guar gum powder to the whole batch? How much would you add?

Wow here I thought bath bombs was just a simple few ingredients, resulting bubbles or lack of if you mess up
Hy mam love u from pakistan i m learning u please help me and cab u make one video for me give me some easy racipies of scrubs and other products because i want start my small bisniss of ur racipies can i start?

How long can it be kept?
As long as you want. Just know that reactions of a bomb diminish over time
When a recipe says add 2% fragrance oil, what does that mean. Is that 2% of the whole mixture including any liquid please
Yes, correct. up to 2% of the entire recipe can be fragrance oil.
Which ingredient is your favorite?
Guar gum- fa sure!
