Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased these to add colorant to some bath bombs I am making as Christmas gifts (I will include the recipe below). The set comes with 9 colors. I tested each one and here are my thoughts: 1. When mixed with sea salts, baking soda, etc. the colors are super vibrant - when mixed with melt and pour soap base I had to use a bit more to get the desired color 2. They mix well together - I used equal parts of the Turquoise and Lime to make a simply gorgeous teal color for an Ocean Breeze bath salt 3. The colorant does not dye your skin - I have to admit I was super worried about this - I most certainly did not want to look like a smurf! I elbow tested first, that way if I turned blue I could hide it with a long sleeve shirt. I soaked my elbow for 15 minutes, no discoloration! Whew! Smurf crisis averted. 4. They blend well with essential oils and carrier oils - I make a wet mixture to slowly sprinkle into the dry ingredients of my bath bomb to prevent the citric acid from activating - it was super important that the colorant and my other wet ingredients worked together. 5. A quick note - the bottles are not labeled, no big deal because you can untwist the top to determine exactly what color it actually is, however, I opted to add a label to the front of each bottle just to make things go quicker. I highly recommend this products for all of the reasons listed above. Bath Bomb Recipe 1 cup Baking Soda 1/2 cup Citric Acid (purchased in grocery store canning section) 1/2 cup Epsom salt (you can double the citric acid is you select not to use Epsom salt) 1 tbsp Rose Witch Hazel 2 tsp Essential Oil of choice 3 tsp Sweet Almond or Jojoba oil 1. Mix all dry ingredients together in a medium size bowl 2. In a separate bowl mix all liquid ingredients together - I then place this mixture into a spray bottle, but that is optional 3. Slowly add liquid mixture to dry mixture kneading with your hands every time - I use a spray bottle to do this so I can constantly mix while spraying 4. Once mixture is wet enough to hold together press into mold of your choice 5. I allow bath bombs to sit over night, however, they will set up within a couple of hours.
