    Nature's Garden Scents

    I haven't used those particular scents, but I do use Natures Garden. I've always used their reccomendation (all mine so far have been at 5%). They turn out great and I think it's just the right strength.

    powdered goat's milk

    I've been wanting to use my powerded goats milk from WSP for the longest time... Does anyone know the usage rate of how much powder to mix in with water, or how much to mix with oils? I haven't been able to figure this out yet.

    Reminds me of scream.

    I thought the same thing. Very pretty bars. I love how the colors turned out

    Favorite "mixing pot"

    I use these plastic mixing bowls from the Dollar Tree and they are AWESOME! They have a handle and a spout for easy pouring & they're super light. They're pretty durable & for a buck you can't beat it. I've only had one crack & it was because I dropped my scale on it. Perfect for 1-2 lb...

    Lovespell

    I love it! I'm a HUGE White Stripes fan, so I love your inspiration for that. If you don't mind me asking, what type of colorant did you use for the red? It looks great!

    An admission of stupidity with lye

    Thanks for the tip. That totally sounds like something I would do, so I'll keep that in mind. I'm glad to hear you didn't get hurt and everyone is okay

    Recipe Feedback

    Thanks for your suggestions! With some tweaking, this is what I've come up with: OO 35% CO 23% PO 20% Almond Oil 9% Castor Oil 8% Cocoa Butter 5% Superfat 6% The numbers on soap calc come pretty close to a Palm Free Recipe I've been enjoying. Let me know if this looks any better.

    Recipe Feedback

    Hey everyone, I wanted to see if I could get your thoughts on a recipe I'd like to try out. I've created my own recipes before, but I got somewhat discouraged as my recipes were softer than I wanted & lacking in lather. After making some "tried and true" recipes I found online, I'd like to...

    Beer Soap with beer FO

    That's too bad you don't like the scent, I did a beer soap before and couldn't get over the smell either. Your bars look awesome though, I'm sure some men out there will enjoy it.

    Bubble Bars

    Just wanted to give an update of my experience with that recipe if you were still curious. I let mine dry out for about 5 days before using. They were a good texture as far as being able to crumble nicely in the hands. I wasn't as impressed as I'd been hoping for. There was a modest cover of...

    What is this purple colour?

    In those bars, I would say it's more than likely some type of lab color, or synthetic colorant. You wouldn't be able to color anything that bright with natural ingredients. But I'm sure you could find all sorts of suppliers with a purple colorant that is similar.

    herbs in soap

    I've used ground parsley to add a green color to my soap. It stayed green, I don't know if I just got lucky or what...

    What about coloring "dirt" soap?

    Great job, they look awesome!

    Success! It smells good and looks good

    Those look nice. I just got a sample of the red apple fragrance from BB in my order. I'm not much of an apple person, but it smells great; everyone in the fam likes it a lot.
