I found this book to be helpful in several ways: the author takes a consistent,recipe-like approach to bath bombs that is way overdue. Although I didn't use her recipes on my first try, I did use her technique, which left me with an round, rock hard "bomb" on the very first attempt. Good for her- I think that the authors who recommend tossing in a few ingredients, and then "spraying with water or witch hazel until it's like wet sand" should be (gently) pelted with their own non functioning products.Now for my reservations- unless you own a heavy duty stand mixer, or are willing to go out and buy one, don't bother buying the book. The second is that some of the recipes call for exotic, expensive, or hard to find ingredients. Also some of the recipes are for very large quantities of product, not appropriate for the beginner (although I suppose they could be divided). I think a first attempt should be for 5 or 6 bombs, without all the melted butters to keep track of, till you really get the hang of it.
Finally, (and maybe this is a minor point) she recommends cold process soap as a topping for one of her bath bomb recipes. CP soap is a whole different animal. It deals in dangerous chemicals and takes a lot of care and practice. I think it's kind of silly to suggest cp soap for a first project as topping for a bath bomb cupcake. There are lots of easier and safer possibilities out there.

This book is a must have for even the most experienced Bath Fizzy maker!!! I've been making bath bombs/fizzies for over 7 years. I've always had a problem with a few of them from each batch cracking and/or splitting in the middle because we have such weird humid weather here in Illinois, UNTIL NOW! I bought Holly's book on whim one day (it showed up in my "you might like this" section) and thought what the heck, I'll give it a try! I read it cover to cover as soon as it arrived. Then I adjusted my normal recipe according to the suggestions in the book (after some test of course) then I made a batch of the absolutely most perfect Bath Bombs to leave my soap room!!! Then, I waited a day to see what they would look like overnight - again, perfect! It was a great day because I then made over 300 Bath Bombs the next day and not a single one of them cracked, split, bubbled or got warty! It was the greatest day ever!!! I can honestly say that if it were not for the suggestions and techniques laid out in this book by Holly, I would still be pulling my hair out over the wonky bombs/fizzies that I used to make! Whether you are a hobbiest or a professional this book is well worth the money and I highly recommend it!!!!
I never made bath fizz before so this is something new for me. My bath experience with it wasn't anything spectacular, at least not for my skin. I'm a woman that loves anything that brings a pampering feel to my bath time without any harsh chemical left on my skin. When I found this book through my search, I had to give it a try. (Great cover picture... and who doesn't enjoy sweets?) This is the year I plan to tap into my bath creative side & have fun. I was excited when I got this book yesterday. Holly made the pages easy to read and added delicious pictures that will call her readers to play. It takes you through Basic Bath Bomb recipe step-by-step which.you can alter from. Another thing I love is that she encourages you to have fun & be creative, like me she was also a beginner. (That's encouraging!) The first few pages give a descriptive view on various butter, oil and dry ingredients that could be used in creating delicious recipes you can use for its various purposes - skin kiss plus a little R&R. Recipes like Lemoncello Fizzy, Oatmeal & Milk Winter Fizzy, Herbal Bath, No-Butter Bomb, Tropical Escape Fizzy, Pops-Truffles-and Candy Apples (Dipping & Decorating) are just a small taste of what you'll find in this fabulous book. I gave this a 5 star because it's all that I'm looking for in creating bath fizz. It also has a list of RESOURCES & SUPPLIERS, making it easier for me to get all that I need to start off in the right direction. I know this will make a jolly gift to myself & loved ones. ( birthdays & holidays). I will report back later after I have tried some of her recipes (with pictures I hope).
I'm going to gripe in this review over the size of this thing (or lack thereof! Lol) I was so surprised when I opened it, I thought I must have it confused with two other bath bomb books I'd purchased from other sellers that were priced at $9 and $11. But no, this was the almost $25 one! It's about the thickness of one of those special magazines they sell at the grocery checkouts for $9.99. I'd been expecting a sizable book for that price, so was pretty disappointed. One reviewer mentioned the large full-color photos, and I'm guessing that's what ate up the production costs of this thing. Then the lack of savings was passed on to us! I haven't used the recipes since this is a gift and I'm not in the mood to start all over searching for the ultimate bath bomb book for the kid, so I'll just keep it. But, fair warning to all who are on a budget!
I was super disappointed by this book. I bought it because I figured that even one new, helpful piece of information or idea was worth the price tag. However, there was no unique information in this book whatsoever, even for a beginner. If you've done much research at all on bath bombs or have watched YouTube videos on the topic, you likely already have all of the information you'll find in this book.
Also keep in mind that many of these pages are large, unnecessary photos (like glitter) with no text.
