No, witch hazel will help keep things dry, adding more water won’t help it all stick togehter in a nice way.

@Drea, Hi were you able to figure out how much materials was needed? I am making this with my second graders as a mothers day present!

Honestly, I have no idea as I’ve never used Easter eggs as molds. I would suggest making a trial batch and counting the eggs.

If we used plastic Easter eggs as our molds, how many (approx) would you say you could make with the quantities you list here? Buying materials and try to make the math work…

No, Epsom salt and sea salt are two totally different things. Epsom salt is magnesium and and sulfate, while sea salt is sodium chloride.

@Scott, you could use food colouring

You can purchase colorants, but you can also use various herbs to naturally color the bath bombs. Here are a few to consider, turmeric for a golden yellow, madder root powder for pink, blueberry for blue/purple, spirulina for blue/green and ratanjot for purple

Based on these instructions, does the finished product have colour?
I’m a Cub Scout Leader and plan to make these with my Cubs for Mother Day. I know they’ll ask, so want to be forearmed and forewarned with the answer!
