I have many people come back for a bar I make with aloe, activated charcoal, kaolin clay, cedarwood, tea tree and lavender. I sell it to several people in 3lb loaves.

I just found I have some Christmas fo's in a box that I forgot about. Ill be soaping them up tomorrow! Im sure it'll be fine with the above tweeks. Good Luck!

lol, I know its should have loads of bubbles, should be creamy and less cleansing so its not drying. My "instinct" isn't with this recipe. But I don't know what to do. Basically Im guessing. I did look at some recipes online, and kind of "got the idea", but honestly with less understanding than...

The hostess has suggested I bring between 8-10 premade $20-$60 baskets and a dozen of each product I make. After that she said the same, take orders. I really don't want to come off unprepared. Should I have a door prize/gift draw?

Has anyone done one? I'd there a formula for deciding what amount of product to bring? I've been asked to do a party for 20! They want stuff for Xmas and themselves. I'd have no idea what to show up with. It's 4 hours away from me but have a trip planned to that area anyway. How do you run a...
