So I've jumped into CP soap making.. Loving it and wishing I had more hours of the day to (make soap) experiment/learn.
I've used the same basic recipe in all my batches.. I'm brand new to this so wanted to take it slow, experiment etc. I've played with a couple of natural colorants, scented a few with some FO's I picked up.. But I'd really like to experiment with some palm, other FO's and colors.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to place an order with Columbus foods for Oils as they seem to be the least expensive....
However, I'm totally overwhelmed with the FO and Color suppliers out there. I read and read the forums, check the scent review board.. and pick a supplier.. then I read another post of another supplier.. and think.. maybe I should shop there instead.
Is it half a dozen or the other? Should I just jump in and order some scents and colors that appeal to me? (after that acceleration I had I'll check the boards first tho, lol) I tell you picking a company to purchase from is becoming painful for me! I can't spend a lot right now, so I want my pick to be of value.. Grr.. maybe I'm just over thinking this, lol.
How do you/ did you pick your first FO's and Colorants?
