Hi, I'm looking for a small cat mold. I have a prospective customer who wants a M&P cat that would fit into one of the small organza bags. I appreciate any ideas. Thanks! Carole

Does anyone have a nice facial bar recipe they would like to share? I've done one with a goatmilk base and would like something new. Thanks! Carole

Does anyone have a good recipe for M&P dog shampoo. I have the dog bone mold and would like to try it. Thanks! Carole

I've made some log mold soaps and other individual mold soaps but haven't noticed this happening before. What I've done. Melted 3 pounds of M&P in Presto pot. While melting I've sprayed alcohol a few times inside the pot to get rid of the bubbles on top. On my latest project I am ladling...

All along I've been using regular alcohol for layers on M&P. Today I switched to 91% and my layered log has fallen apart when I sliced it. Is it the 91% alcohol that caused it?

I've read that arrow root will help make M&P less tacky after it dries. I've tried it and like the feel it gives to the cut bar. However, I'm not happy how it makes the clear bars less shiny. I'm using a soft fluffy makeup brush and going over the bars very lightly. Anyone else have thoughts...

I was using a white Crystal soap base and had no problems with it. I decided to order a Shea Butter base from the Chemical store since they are close to me so the shipping would be better. It is also a Crystal brand base. I am having problems melting the Shea base. It is very creamy and almost...

Someone gave me a small jar of this and all that is listed on the label is the following: Shea Butter and Olive Oil. No contact name or anything. I'm sorry if this will gross you out but I had a small sore inside of one of my nostrils. I put a tiny amount of this butter in there a few...

I want to try a Huggies Baby Wipe container as a M&P loaf mold. How do I determine how many ounces of the base to use? Thanks!

In another life (before I recently found soap making) I was in to rubber stamping and found 100's of blogs where I learned so much from. Are there some blogs out there for soap making that I can visit? I really enjoy blogging but haven't seemed to come across many that want to share...

I received as a gift a very nice book, Natural Soapmaking, by Marie Browning. Most of the information in the book is for hand milling. The way I understand the book is that the soap base is, "soap be white, unscented, and not a detergent. Unscented, hypo-allergenic soaps, such as baby soaps...

I am new to M&P and to this forum. It has taken me over a week to read through all of the soap forum messages.....whew! I am looking for the best colorants that will not bleed for M&P. I would like them to be ready to use from a dropper bottle if possible. With your experience can you...

What look will I get if I mix the two together? Thanks!

I was on a soap makers site and saw a beautiful mold. Of course I didn't bookmark it and now I'm going nuts trying to find a source for the mold. It was a pink mold with maybe 6 bars. The bars are beveled. I remember the soap maker had made soaps with a thin layer of blue in between white...
