and then I left!! The end! (notimpressed.com)

Hi neighbor. . .not for long though. I did the move to the UK in 2001, decided to come home in 2012 and well, things are not working out here and time to head back to the first world!!

Haha, I know I can but oils in the UK. . .I can get sooooo much more there than I can here. It is just going to be affordability and space to start with. Basically picking my life up and starting from scratch. . .not an easy task. . .ah well, we do what we must :-)

that for the time being, I must give up soap making!! I have been soaping for a little over a year now and completely, 100% addicted (if not more) and unfortunately, will have to give it up for some time, as I have decided to move back the the UK and cannot afford to ship everything with me...

I have a bath bomb recipe that I have been using since the beginning of the year and I have not had any issues with it at all. Well, this weekend I went to check all my stocks and make sure everything was fine for my next fair on Friday. Well, to my dismay, most of my bath fizzies have reacted...

Thanks, will see if I can get my hands on some propylene glycol. That might not be easy in this place!!

So i found this recipe online for a melt and pour base and want to try it just for the hell of it: 5oz Distilled Water (for Lye) 2.5oz Sodium Hydroxide (Lye) 5oz Castor Oil 6oz Coconut Oil 6oz Tallow 9oz Propylene Glycol 3oz Glycerin 3oz Sugar dissolved into 3oz Distilled Water My question is...

Thanks all. I am still very happy with how it went, even two days later and a lot of thinking!! Ok so lose the printed fabric. . .CHECK. . ..could I replace it with a lighter solid color on top of the white? I find white so.. . . . .boring and there is a LOT of white on the tables.

I exhibited at my first fair this weekend. It was a long day and a lot of hard work, but I really enjoyed it!! I managed to make back my stand fee, hire costs and a little extra. I am not complaining as it was a first try at a big fair. Next one is on the 31st October and fortunately I still...

Gorgeous. . .well done :-)

I now have the following 10 x soap = 18 bars per batch 5 x LS = 8 bottles of each Bath fizzies = since I do not have a proper bath bomb mold Bath Salts Sugar Scrubs Bath Melts I have been warned by another lady who used to do fairs here and she said not to bother with body butters as it gets...

Thanks all. I have suggested she see a doctor. . .she is stubborn though, so will see if she actually does it!! Also will give her a bar of my oats soap and tell her to try that or nothing but water for a while.

Susie, it is mostly on her cheeks but at the moment has spread up to just under her eyes. She said it is not worse after being in the sun. It will flare up really bad for a week or two and then calms down and then back again. Just had a look at her face wash etc and she is using the Clinique 3...

Hi all, My mom is having a bit of a problem with her face at the moment. She currently uses a Clinique face wash and moisturizer, but seems to be suffering with a type of eczema, only on her face. I have told her that it could be the products she is using and would like to try and make a face...

I used some left over soap from a batch that was a little too much for my mold and added sugar to it, put into a small mold and straight into the freezer to prevent it from heating. Took them out the next morning and now waiting for them to finish curing. I have squeezed them lightly from time...
