    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I started my Christmas soap frenzy. This is the first time I used Melt & Pour. It sure is easy, but the ingredients are scary! I guess that is why we make our own, right? The blue sky is transparent with confetti for snow. I put red fairy dust and mad micas 'into the mystic' glitter on top...

    What is the difference between rebatcing and melt and pour?

    I hope this is still on the subject: When I rebatch it comes out fluffy. Does everyones? I don't grate it, I just cut it into small cubes. Maybe that's why. Any advise?

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I just received my six 1oz bottles of fragrances that I ordered from Fragrance Buddy (recommended here) as samples. I love them all, but my favorite is Bedtime Bath🌙. I prefer florals so this one is perfect. I also made my first Castile soap. Just can't wait to see how it is after cure.
