Staff Answer This can be used but you will have a hard time getting this to disperse. We would recommend the Stained Glass Liquids for the Bubble Bath Base.

"This is in one of your bath salt recipes and there is no Poly 80 in the recipe and was wondering if it would stain my clients tub. If I add Poly 80 would it be ok in bath salts?"

Click Here To View 1 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer There is only 1/4 tsp. for 5 lbs. of salt so it is not heavily colored. You can add Poly 80 to this recipe if you wish. You would add an equal amount to the fragrance that is being added. Here is a link to a salt recipe that we used the poly 80 in: https://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/handmade101/how-to-make-recipes/desert-ghost-flower-bath-salts.aspx

"Am I correct in assuming, that your stained glass colors, purchased in small amounts other than bulk, are not to be used for resale? They have to be "batch certified", which you only do for bulk orders?"

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer You are correct. Only the bulk size in the Stained Glass dye powders are certified for bath bomb use. You can use the stained glass liquids. These do not need certification since they are mixed into a base.

Click Here To View 1 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer That is a nice shade of red. We are not sure why you are getting peach instead of pink. Here is a recipe where this color was used: http://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/education/recipes/Orange-Cranberry-Bath-Fizzies.aspx. You might try the Nu Tone Red for your bath fizzies if you do not like the color you are currently achieving.

"Will these colorants adhere to the bath tub if the bath bomb contains coconut oil? If so, will poly 80 prevent this and staining of skin if too much colorant is accidentally used?"

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer If using oils in your bath fizzies, it is recommended to use Poly 80 to help prevent tub staining. You would need to test your product to see if it might stain from too much color.

"Do I need to add poly 80 or poly 20 to my bath bombs when using this? I do not want the color to stain or create a ring around my tub. Thank you!"

Click Here To View 1 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer Hi Angie the Polysorbates are to help with mixing the water and oil and will help with the ring around the tub. The Polysorbate 20 is a thinner liquid than the 80 so it can go through a spray pump easier. The Polysorbate 80 is more for bath products such as bath bombs, bath oils, and foaming salts. Hope this helps.

Staff Answer Yes, it can. For mp soap, we recommend first mixing with glycerin. If it is poured directly into mp soap it may speckle. For cp soap, mix with base oil for a smooth look or add directly to the traced soap for a rustic look.
