    Thank you CT. I will plan on your advice as I would hate to have them ruined and waste soap.

    Florida Sweat

    Florida Sweat

    Hi everyone, I have never made MP, just CP. I would like to start making MP but would like to hear from others who live in a humid warm climate. I live in FL until June each year and wonder about sweating issues with MP as our temperatures begin to rise soon. I am told to use Saran wrap to...

    Making a black soap

    African Black Soap I am sort of a newbie myself (a few months into it) having only a few hundred bars under my belt now. A friend of mine asked for something for her black daughter's dry skin and after Googling I found African Black Soap. Looking into it I determined that I will not attempt...

    Thanks for the names Dibbles and Rusti. I will explore these vendors as well. Man, I wish I knew that BB was so slow. Has anyone bought off Amazon for colors? I have Prime and can have them in 2 days but not sure of the quality.

    BB: $25 off shipping!

    I emailed them and expressed my displeasure especially since I am a new customer. I told them if they could not fulfill the order in a timely fashion then I will have to use a different vendor. The problem is, I cannot find a place to purchase the colors for CP other than at BB. Bulk...

    BB: $25 off shipping!

    I placed an order with them 2 days ago and as of today it has not even shipped. I saw somewhere on their site that there is a delay due to heavy holiday volume. I am not happy about this.

    Natural Colorants

    Second Batch of Soap Hi all, First thank you all for your input here in this thread. I made my second batch of soap with a few changes. First I increased the water to lye ratio by a few ounces, I added a fragrance because I couldn't wait to use one! LOL I whipped it until a pudding-like...
