Best oil for bath bombs?

[MelissaG]

Currently I'm using safflower oil but the bombs seem kind of soft to me and I'm wondering if the oil is to blame. Perhaps cocoa or mango since they're hard butters?

What are your suggestions? What do you use?

I use cocoa butter in my bath bombs.

I can attest to your recipe being a good one, and thank you for freely sharing it!

If that's the case, I should find it and try it. I'm getting restless and I need something to do.

The issue I have with it is that it doesn't have poly 80 but does have alot of butter. I highly suggest poly 80 added.

I totally agrree - I always use Poly80 with my bombs, for the oil, the FO and the colorant.

I really like FCO in my bath bombs. I use SCI in mine so I get a bit of bubbles in the tub and when I’m done bathing the tub is also clean. Win-win.
