Bath Bomb Making Kit - Mondo Llama™

I read the reviews first and knew I would need extra oil. I had been wanting to make my own bath bombs for a long time because my toddler is obsessed with them so I had some coconut oil and shea butter I had been saving and I used some of that to add to the recipe. I really did need quite a bit more than the kit came with but I didn’t mind because I was happy to add my quality ingredients. I still rate the kit 5 stars because I have plenty of leftover flowers, oils, and coloring to make another batch later on. With all the added oil I was able to make 5 bath bombs instead of 4. We also added some glitter for funsies. The main reason I wanted to buy a kit was for the mold, which I am very happy to have to make more bombs in the future. They turned out so cute! I can’t wait to use one for bath time tonight. I wasn’t sure how much oil to add so I just added a dropper full at a time with the included plastic dropper thing. I just added oil until the mixture held together when squeezed. I heated the oil to melt it before hand and I feel like using some of my own oil will also help for setting because it will harden as it cools. I got the kit on sale but now that I’ve tried it I feel like it would be worth the normal cost and I might buy another one just to have 2 of the molding balls for future use. My 4 year old had a lot of fun making them with me. It was a bit messy because he treated it like play sand but that’s to be expected with a toddler. We used our hands without gloves and I appreciate that the dye easily washed off. I only wish that all the ingredients were listed for the bag of “mixed powder” so that I would know what all is in my bath bombs. Oh, and half the rose oil leaked out into the box but I don’t think that’s a normal problem, just bad luck on my part 😂 the rose oil did smell nice though! The lavender oil is ok, I prefer the smell of the lavender oil I have so I mixed in some of my own lavender oil as well but the one it came with is fine.

Like other reviews, coconut oil included in the box is not enough but everything else works perfectly. We added +33ml of avocado oil addition to the coconut oil and they finally came together. My 6 years old and I had good time making these bath bombs. We were able to make 4 and a half.

This made a perfect birthday gift. Its not to expensive for what the activity entails. Now i am not able to voice my opinion on the actual product given that we bought this as a gift. However I really did enjoy the convince and the price of the product.

Absolute Fail! Terrible directions. Not enough coconut oil. Do not buy.

We were able to get about one bath bomb out of it. The instructions were unclear and didn’t always give the proper tools to add what it was asking. Still fun for kids to play and experiment with even if it didn’t end up as a bath bomb.

I thought this was such a cool kit and was so excited but Buyer beware, not enough coconut oil in the kit to form the bath bombs just turns into a powder mess.

This was such a fun activity to do with my boys. They are obsessed with bath bombs and experiments and this felt like a little combination of both!

It says we need a certain amount of powdered ingredients in grams but then doesn’t give us the proper measuring tools to do so. The bath bombs did not stay in shape at all. They were just crumbly and powder still….

I bought this for my daughter, we followed the directions provided but the bath bombs would not come out correctly. They were dry and crumbly, we ended up adding our own coconut oil just to form some kind of shape. The directions were unclear as well and my daughter was pretty frustrated. The oils and flowers smelled good.

My toddler is obsessed with bath bombs so this was the perfect week night craft for us! Very easy to do and we had fun mixing colors and dried flowers. Instructions are included. The kit also comes with gloves and a plastic sheet to lay out and prevent mess. I like that it was a craft that can be used after you’re done making it

My little one loves bath bombs but they can be so expensive. Finding out how we can make our own has been so much fun and also will save us so much money. Very cute and easy craft!

The directions have a spelling error and are not written well. There is not enough oil but a lot of scented oil. A really cool concept and I think can be easily improved.

I have some mixed feelings about this product. The instructions were not very detailed but I managed to make a fairly decent bath bomb on my first try quickly (I just made 1). The color was easy—just add a couple drops at a time and mix until you get the color you want. The essential oil was harder to get right. It was so easy to add too much even a couple drops at a time because it was so potent. Also, I had to add grapeseed oil I used for cooking because what they said was needed for the coconut oil definitely didn’t work. My bath bomb fizzes for a long time and my skin felt so smooth afterwards! Although that was likely the extra oil I had to add. I just did a second round this evening and it was terrible. I tried to get fancy with layering different colors but it was quite difficult. No problem, because it still turned out pretty. I guess I didn’t get the ratio of dry ingredients to oil and essential oils right this time. The smell was overpowering and I struggled to get the bomb to stay in shape. It took me forever to make each two tonight.

I would not recommend this product. Purchased this to make for a gift and I’m pretty sure it’s not going to given because of the way the bath bombs turned out. The instructions were very sparse and didn’t tell you how many drops of coloring or essential oils to use. The colors on the outside of the box were not inside. Better instructions or a video link would be much more helpful. I’m afraid after washing up the cups that it might discolor a non ceramic tub. Don’t waste your money on this brand.
