Ah, ok. Thank you :)

Hey! I know this is an old post, but I'm curious about your friend soaping in Belize as I am also in Belize. Are they on IG or FB?

Do you have a picture? :)

Does anyone have this soap cutter or one like it? Thinking of purchasing... https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B074CPLZLZ/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20

Following! :)

I've been scouring the internet for a recipe for a light, non greasy, non waxy feeling, quick absorbing facial moisturiser. So far I haven't found what I want, which is all of the above, and a water free, oil/butter only version. Most have e-wax or aloe vera gel in it. I'd rather not use either...

Oooh, Teresa, that sounds so good! Would love the 'recipe' for that :) Dibbles, I'm going to have to try that first blend, it sounds good. I have Ylang Ylang but not Amyris...what does it smell like?

I *cough* love buying essential oils that sound cool...expensive addiction I'm telling ya! Anyway, I now have some eo's that I don't know what to do with but want to use them, ideas? I have a host of other eo's besides these ones :D Rosewood Copaiba Cajeput Ravensara Ajowan Niaouli Tangerine...

What are your 2017 goals for your soap/ soap businesses? Having trouble coming up with any for myself so could use some inspiration. Need to push myself some this coming year!

Neat! Looking forward to trying some new recipes :)

Is KOH as readily available as NaOH? I haven't ever looked for it in town :) Or would I have to order it from an online supplier?

Wow, thanks everyone for replying! Going to have to experiment :D Fun!

I have never had any success with salt bars, but it is still on my 'to do' list! Will note that down, Obsidian :)

So: 35% Olive Oil 20% Coconut 35% Lard 5% Castor 5% Almond Would it be better to switch out the Almond for Avocado or just lower the Almond more and put the extra % to Lard?

Kchaystack...looked at the wrong column of %...wow it's a bad day for me! Okay. Right %'s are: Olive Oil: 35% Coconut: 30% Lard: 25% Castor: 3.3% Almond: 6.7% SO sorry about that :lol: dixiedragon...thick, creamy, soft, luscious. Makes you want to just keep using it! My base recipe...
