Teach Soap

Hi there, hope you can help. Ive been asked to make bath bombs which at first I thought would be a new and exciting project but Ive since read some of your posts on here. It really seems its practice and trial and error but I'm hoping you can give me a few tips. I live in Crete Greece and I usually spend a lot of money on shipping costs as no suppliers here, so any recommendations of moulds etc would be appreciated, also has anyone tried a recipe with borax yet, if so, can you give me the ratio please? the area I live in is 70% humidity, should i just give up before i start?
thanks in advance

You can se a mini muffin mold for a mold, or an ice cube tray if you'd like. Also, I use the clear ornaments you may find at a craft store. Cup cake tins work too!

As far as shipping and where to find products, I wouldn't know. I'd suggest to save up and get all your supplies at once so you only pay the shipping once. Price compare too and look for coupon codes!

I've never used borax but I've used citric acid (you should find in the canning section of your market) and powdered SLS. I've used Cream of Tartar too, but was not a fan.

I prefer not to use borax at all.

I've never used it because I was scared too because of what I heard about it... Has anyone looked into it? I'm not sure, but I did find this: http://www.crunchybetty.com/getting-to- ... afe-or-not

The only recipe I have seen with borax, is a toilet cleaning fizzie. You can use almost anything for a mold. I saw on a video that someone used an empty plastic cat food container.
