How Much Do I Need? & Q&A

1. How much bubble liquid will I need?

The amount of bubble liquid you’ll need can vary depending on factors such as weather conditions, wind, the type of wands used, and how the liquid is being used.

The guide below should help you choose the right amount. For more detailed advice, read our blog: How much bubble liquid will I need?

Pack Size Guide

• 1.5–9L → Home use for a few children (approx. 30–60 minutes)
• 9L+ → Events and shows (around 1 hour per 9L)

✓ Mix only what you need — there’s no need to use the whole pack at once.
✓ Indoor use: you’ll get around 30% more mix, as extra water can be added.

2. Does this work with all wands?

Yes, this is an all round bubble liquid ideal for giant bubbles, smaller wands for huge long lasting bubbles, for bubble tricks and kids standing inside bubbles. Its also ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, we give instructions for both uses.

3. Does this work for bubble guns?

This solution is not designed for bubble guns. It is a high-strength bubble mix, whereas most bubble guns require a very weak, lightweight liquid (the type commonly found in cheap, off-the-shelf bubble refills).

4. Is it safe for children?

Yes, when used correctly. Adult mixing is required, and the solution should be stored out of reach of children and animals. Once mixed, children can enjoy safe bubble making under adult supervision. The solution should not be ingested.

If eye irritation is experienced, rinse immediately with clean water. Use a proper eye rinse if available. If symptoms persist, seek medical advice. Any irritation is likely due to the washing-up liquid component (e.g. Fairy Liquid); please refer to the manufacturer’s safety labels for further guidance.

5. How long does Bubble Powder Pro last?

In the packet — years. Kept dry and sealed, two to three years is normal, often longer. There’s nothing in it that can go mouldy, so as long as it stays dry and out of direct sunlight it’ll keep. That means a bigger pack is never wasted — mix what you need, keep the rest sealed, and it’ll still be good next season.

Once mixed — longer than most. Mixed Bubble Powder Pro keeps better than most home-made mixes. It isn’t made from anything food-based, so it doesn’t break down the way kitchen recipes do — plenty of people get months out of a batch.

How long yours lasts really comes down to how it’s looked after:

• Keep it lidded when you’re not using it
• Keep grass, dirt and grit out of it
• Store at room temperature and out of direct sunlight

A clean batch kept indoors will go a lot further than one that’s sat in the garden all summer. If it ever looks cloudy or smells different, mix a fresh batch. Worth doing a day ahead though — a fresh mix makes much bigger bubbles once it’s rested for 24 hours.

6. Is it suitable for indoor and outdoor use?

Yes! It works well both indoors and outdoors.

• Outdoor use: Keep full concentration for a stronger, thicker mix that handles movement and weather.

• Indoor use: Add a little more water for a lighter, refined formula — gives around 30% more liquid.

7. How quickly can I start making bubbles?

You can start making bubbles within a few minutes of mixing. However, for best results, we recommend letting the mixture rest for 24 hours. It may create bubbles right away, but they will be smaller. Waiting gives larger, professional-quality giant bubbles.

8. How is it delivered?

Smaller packs (1.5L–72L) are designed to fit through your letterbox, so there’s no need to wait in. Larger packs, or orders that include additional items, may be sent as a parcel.

You’ll receive the bubble powder along with full mixing instructions. Simply add your own Fairy Liquid (see the instructions or below for the recommended type) and mix the solution as directed.

9. How quickly can you deliver? I need it urgently.

We offer a priority rush option at checkout, with delivery in 2–3 working days.

10. How long does postage take?

You choose your postage option at the checkout, and it shows the posting times for each one.

11. Do you ship to my country?

Yes, I ship worldwide (not to EU countries). Put your address in at the checkout and it works out the postage before you pay.
