    Shrink Bags, Heat Sealing and M&P

    Hi everyone, Previously I've always wrapped my soaps in plastic wrap and slapped a label on the back. I went and got some 4X6 shrink bags and decided to give that a go with my heat gun. Because it's a bag, 3 of the 4 sides are all sealed and worked just fine, but how do you seal the open side...

    Is Cold Process more profitable than M&P?

    I've been in business selling M&P for about a year now, and I've never tried cold process. I know that with CP it's a lot more complex and would need months and months (or even a year) of testing recipes and what not but that's not the issue here. My question is about the cost vs. profit.

I leave them in the mold for 4-5 minutes, scrunch up some saran wrap and put in the bottom of each muffin hole in a muffin tin and gently rest the bomb there to harden (the saran wrap prevents "flat bottom" and...

This is the only soap so far that I've made that is drying! I notice a lot of people succesfully sell clear M&P with...

    How long does your 4 oz M&P bar last?

    How long does your bar last in the shower with daily use? I find that after a week or so my bar is almost halved. I shower daily and sometimes twice, and my boyfriend showers twice (but probably doesn't lather up as much as I do). I know my product is good, I just don't want people to feel...

    Brambleberry Bases

    I was wondering what everyone thought of Brambleberry's bases. I'm in Canada and have been lucky enough to live close to the border. I decided to make the drive down to Bellingham and try out Otion. I bought 10lbs each of clear and white, 3 lbs shea butter and 3lbs goat milk. I tried it out in a...
