Staff Answer This is something you will need to try. We are not sure if they would block the oil from coming out of the applicator.

"Are these used like the larger bath oil beads?"

Staff Answer No, these are much smaller and are added to a lotion to add a pop of color or to a liquid suspension soap base. They will soften in the soap then release the liquid inside once it is rubbed into the skin.

"How do you get these beads to stay suspended. They keep sinking to the bottom? Im using a castile liquid soap base for shower gel. "

Staff Answer You would need to use a suspension soap base to keep these beads from sinking. In any other liquid soap, they will settle to the bottom as you have seen. Here is a link to our suspension base: https://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/products/liquid-suspension-soap-base.aspx

"Can you use this in liquid suspension for hand soap? If so what would be the ratio for 8 oz. of suspension liquid?"

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer You can use these in a liquid suspension base. There is no set amount to use. If using a pump for your bottle, we recommend using a small amount, 1/2 tsp. or so per 8 oz., as these can get caught in the pump chamber.

Staff Answer Vita Burst beads do not have a scent to them. When added to water, they will soften and release the ingredients inside. You can use these in your bath bombs.

"Hi I bought some of the blue Vita Burst beads. I wish there were more recipes but that being said I added them to a small amount of lotion and they just stayed hard and fell off my hands? Are you supposed to leave them in for a while? I wanted to try them in the Blueberry bath whip just as a moisturizer because I saw where you said they are not exfoliating? I am confused. One customer said she used in lotions? Thank you so much"

Staff Answer The beads soften as they sit in the product. They should not be used right away. They will rub into the skin when used. They can be added to lotion and liquid suspension bases. They are mainly used to add color to products like liquid washes, white lotions, even scrubs.

"Can this product be added to lotions or body butter"

Click Here To View 1 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer These can be added to lotions and will plump up and soften in the product. This will not happen if added to body butters since this is an oil based product. They can still be added but will stay solid in the product.
