Right? It’s my favorite oil for lotion bars and whipped body butter. So light and absorbs quickly.
What soapy thing have you done today?

Re: carrot seed oil, I cover up the smell with a few drops of skin-loving EOs.
When I first began using it, it was around the same time that I discovered how to make a simple hyaluronic acid serum. Will share my simple recipe if anyone interested.
Anyway, after 2 weeks of using the HA serum and the carrot seed oil, my skin looked better than it had in decades. Dark spots were lightened, fine lines seemed to be gone, and there was a freshness that I hadn’t seen for a long time.
Then we moved to Texas. Even now, almost two years after leaving the Sauna State, my skin still hasn’t forgiven me. I think it was a combo of the heat, humidity, and scary amount of hair products needed to keep my hair from looking like a Brillo pad.
@Misschief if you care to share where you purchased your mask recipe, maybe that’s what I need to finally coax my skin back to it’s pre-Texas state.

I bought it from DIY Bath & Body on Etsy. I've been making, using, and selling it for 2 years now and am gaining a following. I'm getting repeat customers for this one.

@Misschief thank you! I loved the other recipe you shared from them, as well.
I have to say that I have all her recipes and I love most of them. I don't make all of them to sell but I do make a few.
What an interesting response. As a recovering vegan myself I’m kind of on a mission to (re-) normalize the use of lard and tallow.
Love your labeling
Rats, the secret is out!! Yes, this stuff is ahhhh-mazing. Due to cost, I hoard mine and only make products with it for people I REALLY like.
Yes, ma'am, you most certainly do. I like MFSO better than argan, which is saying a lot, bc I love argan!
Those colors are perfect for that scent and name, and those swirls look great!
I read something about this oil a while back but only bought it recently. I actually just start making lotion bars so will have to try this! Thanks!
I only give away and don’t sell, so there is that.I agree with one difference. Since I like everybody who buys my lotions & creams, everybody gets meadowfoam!
Those are gorgeous! I've made a few with my pvc pipe but I don't particularly working with it - it's black for 1 thing so it's kind of hard to see what you're doing. I just received a proper silicone tube mold so will definitely be putting it to the test after the holidays!
Thanks, I just purchased the Facial Mud Mask/Masque recipe, as well as two others, since her 20% coupon made it worth my while.
Which ones??
Besides the facial mask/masque recipe you recommended, I purchased the solid shampoo bar and conditioner bar recipes. Yes, there are many such recipes out there for free. But I liked her ingredient lists, and her track record of all positive reviews.
Ive started wearing a headlamp w my pvc mold.
What a great idea! Yet another thing to
Those are two of my best selling products. I can barely keep them in stock.
My soap shop is currently closed for remodeling.

What a nice Christmas present. Gotta love our supportive hubs!My soap shop is currently closed for remodeling.
What do you mean you purchased recipes? Can that be done here? Is this a feature on SMF I'm just not aware of?
I believe they're referring to a seller on Etsy. Her handle is DIY Bath and Body.
