Guest guest Posted July 24, 2005 Report Share Posted July 24, 2005 Well after sitting overnite, the glow in the dark powder is starting to slowly settle to the bottom of the bodywash. But I think with a thicker base it would work. So dont give up hope. Shaye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 It's cool that you tried it!!! Yeah, a thicker suspension base might work, I guess. It would be so much fun for Halloween!

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Ok I tried mixing a thicker base with the GID stuf I made up and it worked wonderful! Its been sitting 24 hours now and no settling out. I tried to take a picture last nite but you cant really see that its glowing because the flash of the camera. anyway Im pretty jazzed about this .

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 nne, today I thikened regular body wash with Xanathen gum and it worked well cept now I think I used too much because I cant get the foamy bubbles out LOL. Im hoping that the bubbles will settle in time but the GID powder is staying suspended! YEAH Next time I wont use so much X gum. Tonite when my dd takes her bath, I want to see what kind of bubble bath this makes. And if the bubbles glow. Has anybody used Silica powder to thicken water based stuf? I know its usualy used for thickening oil in a salt scrub. Shaye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 To thicken water based stuff that is premade (like shower gel that has gon runny) I use Crothix liquid. I also use Pro-gel from KellerNaturals. The pro-gel you add to plain water and it becomes gelled. I then take that and mix it with my other ingredients. in RI ________ Has anybody used Silica powder to thicken water based stuf? I know its usualy used for thickening oil in a salt scrub.
