Thank you so much for making this video, because I have a math learning disability and I have been trying to find a very clear explanation of approximately how much I need to color a bath for so long. I have been making my own bath bombs and bath truffles for a long time but have been too afraid to venture into the actually-coloring-the-bathwater side. This is very clear.

Absolutely loved this video! SO helpful, thank you so much for making it!

Love watching you. You're so cute and funny. I was cracking up at the testing of a bath bomb and it was taking some time and you came back in with a wig on. I just started making bath bombs. I'm going to be 70 this summer and thought why not! When you say you need a certified batch number for a Lake color are the certified supposed to say that right on if it is. Someone gave me some Lake colors but I don't see anything that says certified. Thanks and keep up with the great things you do and your wonderful sense of humor. Valerie

I think mica powders don't mix well with fiberglass bath tubs. That's why some people don't have issues with it but some people do.

As long as it’s water soluble dye intended for use in cosmetics (ie: NOT food coloring lol!) it will be fine! They can stain the skin in high concentrations, but it generally takes a lot to get to that point

So is there a certification or anything in general that you have to have to make and sale bath bombs(period), or just if you use colors that are not certified? I'm just trying to get started with them. Been making soap for about a year and people want bath bombs. Thanks

It depends on where you live! In the US it goes state by state. Texas (where I am) is very lenient and I don’t need a certification or anything like that. Florida (where our LLC is registered) requires you to have a commercial location where you’re making your product. In other countries there will be other requirements-for example Canada and the UK require you to have assessments on each product. So yeah it’s really dependent on your location, and your best best is a FB group (or Reddit, something like that) where you can crowd source the answer for your specific location! 🙂

Hey Robin! How do you suggest we prevent ''staining'' when using mica as a paint, on the bath bomb. OK - the mix always has poly 80 - but we don't put poly 80 in the mica paint. We use alcohol ... what can we do to prevent the staining? In this case I HAVE to paint the bomb, it's essential to the design. Thanks a bunch!!!!

@BathFizzFoam

You can add a little Poly 80 into your mica paint if you find that it stains. As a rule of thumb I always add poly to my black or purple paint since they are my worst offenders!
