Salts and Acids

We pride ourselves on the quality of our Citric Acid - it is key to everything that we do. After many many trials in our early days and driving more than one supplier to distraction we arrived at the conclusion that the best all round grade of Citric for bath bomb making was an extemely fine granular grade.. teeny weeny grains smaller than anything in your store cupboard.. but with just enough of a grain to allow you to make consistently good bath bombs time and again.
Buy this with confidence; we've taken the trial and error out of the equation for you! And if you havent used this before - yes this is the Citric that you need to make smooth looking and feeling really gorgeous bath bombs, it is food grade, it is pure, and it can be used for home cleaning and descaling.

Borax (Disodium Tetraborate Decahydrate) has been traditionally used to thicken home made lotions and creams although it is no longer used commercially for this purpose. A natural herbicide/insecticide, Borax is esperiencing a bit of a revival as a natural cleaning agent, and as a booster for laundry and pre wash soaking.

Borax is also a key ingredient in fun science led recipes such as putty, slime and bouncy ball making where it is used in solution.

Please remember that Borax is a toxic product (an excellent insecticide and herbicide) and should be kept away from children and safely stored in a clearly marked container. MSDS supplied with purchase - please see your email receipt after purchase for the link to download the MSDS in PDF format.
