A warm, relaxing bath is the ultimate cosy treat for unwinding after a hard day, or when muscles ache, or when winter holds everything in its icy grip. Bath worshippers everywhere will love the 15 bath bomb recipes contained in this book; they will transform bath time from an enjoyable experience to one that is truly pampering. A bath bomb is made from just three main ingredients: citric acid, bicarbonate of soda and water, which are mixed together, moulded and left to dry hard. When popped into a warm bath, the resulting bomb fizzes and effervesces as it is immersed in the water, releasing any aromatic oils, herbs and butters you may have added to the mixture, and leaving the water fragrantly scented, soft and moisturising. The easy-to-follow instructions in this book will show you how to make a variety of delightful, aromatic bath bombs. We re sure you will enjoy making them and, more importantly, using them. Review: Excellent book, perfect for beginners - Having bought and been impressed with Elaine Stavert's Soaps, I decided to purchase Bath Bombs. I had no prior experience of making bath bombs when I purchased this book, so can confirm that it is excellent for a beginner. It tells you everything you need to know, from what equipment you will need to advice on aromatherapy oils and herbs that you can add. The book has beautiful colour photographs and easy to follow step by step instructions. My first attempt didn't work all that well, as my bath bombs crumbled a little, but having followed the troubleshooting section, they have come out perfect since. They go down well as gifts and I would thoroughly recommend this book. Review: Outstripped expectations - I thoroughly recommend this book - my daughter (9) and I were able to make some really good bath bombs using the basic recipe, and there are lots of little tips and suggestions which have helped us with ingredients, blending and moulding etc. I was sceptical about buying it since there's so much information available online already, but actually I found it well written and enjoyable -the photos are fun and inspiring too. I'll certainly buy more books by Elaine Stavert (hint hint if my family are reading this!),the best bath bomb book I've found and I don't think I'll need another one now, there's so many ideas to try out!

Brilliant book
This book is great, by far one of the best books I own! I was surprised by all the information regarding the essential oils as well as the history of bathing. All in all a wonderful read with great 'recipes', techniques, pictures and a help section. There is also a list of suppliers and stockists. Can't wait to get started on my own bath bombs which I will be gifting at Christmas.

Very good
This lady writes such brilliant books. I've now bought all five of her books (Beauty Oils & Butters, Candles, Soaps, Beauty Masks & Scrubs and Bath Bombs). All are written which such great detail, incl features on essential oils, herbs, a natural colour, and great detail on how to put things together (along with nice recipes of course). Can't praise them enough!

Well written.
It's an okay book if you intend to make a career out of it. I just wanted a few recipes to get the kids to have a go. But I think it's going to be a lot messier than I thought and more time consuming, as I have to master the techniques first.

fab
lots of great ideas for home use and presents for those you love but who sadly smell a bit! seems easy to do and it's good that all these books have a glossary of websites for supplies if you're a bit stuck. will be fun.

バスボムの本
バスボムが作りたくて、買ってみました。 いままで1回も作ったことなく、ネットでいくつか作り方を見てただけです。 英語で書かれていますが、そんなに難しい文章が書いてあるわけではないので適当に読めますよ。(読めてると思ってるだけかもしれませんが…(^^; いろいろなバスボムが作られていて、見てるだけでもきれいです。 基本の作り方の手順に写真がたくさん掲載されていて、初めての私も作りやすかったです。

Excellent Book!
This is an excellent easy to follow book on bath bomb making. The products it calls for are easy to find in the grocery store, except the essential oils of course but they can be ordered online. This book is a must for making perfect bath bombs!

Libro
Pensavo fosse un kit per fare le bombe invece è un libro. Ho sbagliato io ma preciso per qualcun'altro. Ok

Idées originales
Super livre. Il donne des idées originales pour fabriquer des bombes de bain. La recette de base est même plus simple que celle que je faisais jusque là.

A great book on bath bombs/fizzies.
I Like It! This book is an easy read and the recipes are good and easy. I liked the whole book, the chapters on the history of bathing were interesting. When you learn the basic recipe you can add what ever you choose (easy). Elaine has a lot of good ideas on molds and mixing your own scent and coloring, I use food coloring. I've made about twenty bath bombs and they all came out good. It get's COLD here in Ohio and the winters are long so I usually learn a new hobby during the winter, a good time to curl up with a good book and learn something new. This is the best book on bath bombs that I've seen I'm surprised it doesn't have more reviews.
