Key Points
- Incorporating melted shea butter soap into a bath bomb mixture can create an interesting moldable texture similar to a bubble bar.
- The mixture of melted soap and bath bomb ingredients can produce amazing bubbles, but may also leave a slight soap film on the skin.
- For the best results, use the bath bombs soon after making them as the fizzing reaction may diminish over time due to the moisture in the melt and pour soap.
