Azlok's 5 Bath Bomb Color Combo Pack is a set of five cosmetic-grade powder colours—matte violet, brown, orange, matte maroon and pink—made in India for colouring handmade bath bombs and other DIY bath and craft projects. Each shade comes in a 15 gm pack, blends smoothly into your dry mix, and is designed to be gentle on skin when used in the right amount.
What you get in the pack
The combo includes five separate powder colours at 15 gm each, giving you a ready palette without buying bottles individually. The shades are chosen to work well together and on their own:
- Matte violet — soft lavender to deep purple depending on quantity
- Brown — warm, earthy tones, good for chocolate or coffee-themed bombs
- Orange — bright, citrus-style colour
- Matte maroon — rich, muted red
- Pink — from blush to bold rose
These are powder colourants, not glitter or mica flakes, so they dissolve and disperse rather than sitting on the surface.
How to use bath bomb colours
The key with powder colours is to add them slowly and mix thoroughly. Too much colour can stain the tub or skin, while too little gives a washed-out fizz.
- Prepare your dry base — the usual mix of baking soda and citric acid, plus any Epsom salt or cornflour.
- Start small — take a pinch of colour (around 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon per batch) and add it to the dry ingredients.
- Mix well — work the colour through with a whisk or gloved hands until the shade is even, with no dark specks.
- Build up gradually — add more only if you want a deeper tone. Remember the colour looks stronger when dry and lightens as the bomb fizzes in water.
- Add wet ingredients last — spritz in your oils and binder, then press into moulds.
To create custom shades, blend two colours—pink and violet for a berry tone, or orange and brown for terracotta. Test a tiny batch first so you know how it behaves in water.
Beyond bath bombs
Because these are cosmetic-suitable colours, you can use them in other DIY projects too. They work in melt-and-pour soap, bath salts, and general arts and crafts where a fine powder pigment is needed. Always check that your final use is skin-appropriate and follow the same rule of adding small amounts at a time.
Safety and honest notes
Even skin-safe colourants need sensible handling:
- Do a small patch test before using a new colour heavily on skin, especially for sensitive skin.
- Use in moderation—over-colouring can leave a ring on the tub or tint skin temporarily. Wipe the tub after use.
- These are for external, cosmetic use only. Do not ingest.
- Keep the powders away from children and store the packs closed to avoid spills and staining of surfaces.
- Wear gloves if you don't want to tint your fingers while mixing.
Buying and storage tips
The pack is priced at ₹499 for all five colours, which suits both hobbyists and small-batch makers testing a range of shades. Store the powders in a cool, dry place, tightly sealed and away from moisture—damp is the main enemy of powder colourants because it causes clumping. With proper storage, the shelf life is around 2 years. Azlok stocks these alongside other bath bomb and soap-making supplies, so you can build a full kit as your projects grow.
FAQ
How much colour should I use per bath bomb batch?
Start with about 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon per standard batch, mix well, and add more only if you want a deeper shade. Colour looks stronger in dry powder than it does once the bomb fizzes in water.
Will these colours stain my bathtub or skin?
Used in normal amounts they rinse away cleanly. Over-colouring can leave a temporary tint or a ring on the tub, so use sparingly and wipe the tub after your bath.
Can I mix the five colours to make new shades?
Yes. Blend small quantities—like pink with violet, or orange with brown—to create custom tones. Test a small batch first to see how the shade develops.
Are these colours only for bath bombs?
No. They also work in melt-and-pour soap, bath salts and general DIY crafts. Just make sure any product that contacts skin is used in cosmetic-safe amounts.
How long do the colours last?
About 2 years when kept in a cool, dry place in a well-sealed pack. Keeping moisture out prevents clumping and preserves the colour strength.
