Making Snow Kissed Bath Bombs - Recipe Included | MO River Soap

Hi everyone! In this video, I'm making and pressing our Snow Kissed Bath Bombs! I'm sharing my recipe as well. This is what works for me and may not be what works for everyone. Bath bombs are that finicky! Some notes about this recipe... I was having a nice bath bomb making day and then ran out (turns out I did have more nearby, ha) of 91% isopropyl rubbing alcohol. I subbed some 70% as this is what I used to use. It was okay but was still a bit wet. I also realized I should have added about 5 more grams buttermilk powder but apparently doing math on the spot while on video isn't my strongest suit. Either way, it was fine. Not super critical, but would have helped with the 70% alcohol substitution. The humidity in my studio that day was around 40-45%. I run two dehumidifiers for most of the year to get it this low. This is still considered 'high humidity' for making bath bombs. This is why I tweaked and formulated my own recipe to work. That being said, you may need to tinker with the alcohol amounts depending on how the humidity is on the day you make your bath bombs. I've made this same recipe on rainy days with just minor tweaks. I do not care for spritzing with alcohol (or anything else) as I don't feel this fully incorporates and does give warts/wet spots. Some use witch hazel and that's fine too. I don't care for it and so it's not in my recipe. The alcohol evaporates and that is why we like it for bath bombs as it shows up to help and bind and then leaves. :-) R E C I P E 2000 grams Baking Soda (Sam's Club) 2 TBSP Distilled Water (Grocery Store) 2 TBSP 91% Rubbing Alcohol (Grocery Store) 50 grams Buttermilk Powder (Wholesale Supplies Plus) 100 grams Tapioca Starch (Amazon) 100 grams SLSa (Two Wild Hares) 20 grams Apricot Oil (Wholesale Supplies Plus) 48 grams Winter Candy Apple Type Fragrance (Indigo Fragrance) 20 grams 91% Rubbing Alcohol (Grocery Store) 15 grams Polysorbate 80 (Bramble Berry) 1000 grams Citric Acid Powder (Wholesale Supplies Plus) Colors used: Red 27 Lake (Nurture Soap) Kings Gold Mica (Bramble Berry) Rose Gold Mica (Bramble Berry) A little more info about ingredients: *SLSa - Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate is a sulfate free surfactant. It is derived from coconut and palm and is gentle and mild. It is Eco Certified. The coarse powder does not need to be ground but does have a larger particle size that helps to keep the powder less airborne than the fine. I only buy from Two Wild Hares as this is my preferred SLSa. *Polysorbate 80 is an emulsifier. This helps to incorporate the oils and colors into the bath water without floating on the surface. This also helps to prevent micas/colors from leaving a ring on the tub...and you! *You can buy your tapioca starch from your chosen supplier. I just buy mine from Anthony's Organic on Amazon in a pinch. *You can use any light oil that you desire. You may need to tweak your recipe a little bit just depending. *Pay attention the to IFRA usage rates for the fragrance you choose. You may need to adjust usage from the 48 grams. *Citric Acid Powder - I buy mine from Wholesale Supplies Plus. It really is superior in my opinion. I've gotten some really chunky 'fine' citric from other suppliers. This makes the bath bomb look bumpy. I find the powder is best. *Colors - I like to use Lakes for multi-color batches. For solid color batches, I use Dyes (water soluble) mixed into the 2 TBSP water before adding to the baking soda. These can be sensitive to alcohol so the color may change slightly. *The baggies I use are size 2.5 x 2 x 6. I bought mine at Nashville Wraps. I am looking for biodegradable cello in the same same. B-3 BOMBER BATH BOMB PRESS - This press is amazing! I used the 2.5 inch sphere mold the most. In full disclosure, I was gifted this machine back in January of 2019. The exchange was to show the machine and how it works and to just enjoy it. That's it! I fulfilled all obligations a while ago! However, I love this machine and want to shout it from the roof tops! I also love supporting other small businesses, especially when the product is of great quality. I am very grateful and I feel this product is superbly made. Note that we purchased the air compressor, hoses, dials, additional molds, etc., on our own. Head over to bathbombmachine.com to learn more. I HIGHLY recommend Amanda Aaron's book Fun in the Tub as a guide for creating various bath products.
