Bath Bomb Basics for Beginners! SIMPLE RECIPE + Molding Tips!

I am sharing a simple & easy bath bomb recipe tips & tricks on how to mold them. 1 cup (250 grams) baking soda, 1/2 cup (100 grams) citric acid, 1/4 cup (30 grams) corn starch 1.5 teaspoons (7.5 milliliters fragrance oil), 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) polysorbate 80, & 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 milliliters) surfactant (use any surfactant, I used coco glucoside). You don’t have to add anything else but baking soda & citric acid, but I always add 1/4 cup starch to keep my wet & dry ratios balanced. For the 1/4 cup you can add anything you want! *** You can add more dry ingredients but the more you add, the less vigorous reactions you’ll have. Plus, you’ll have to adjust the recipe. Sieve dry ingredients together, then whisk them together. WET: I’ll share a secret with you! For me, a wetter mix (like 20-25 milliliters) is easier to work with, easier to mold, & holds together better… But the bombs take forever to dry & don’t float. For this recipe 15 millilit
