Is corn flour and corn starch the same?

I googled it, in some countries it's different. Can you buy corn starch in NZ? Making bath Bombs. What did you use? Thanks

patsy3, cornflour and cornstarch are the same thing.As you know, we here in N.Z. know of it as cornflour whilst in the U.S., in particular, it is known as corn starch, so are you using an American recipe?:-))

Thanks 245sam. I did try to google rather than ask an inane question on here, but one site referred to different processes. The flour being the whole kernel, and starch being the husk of the kernel. 'tis an American recipe so I'm sure cornflour is ok.
