She's definitely the one being unreasonable! Nobody works for free! I mean, what you made is art. The ingredients aren't what's special. Anyone can make plain old soap if they want but making it look like that takes an artist's and that's what she'd really be paying for. Not everyone is an...

I don't often CPOP because I live in Florida and between the hot climate and the dehumidifier in the soap curing room my soap typically gels all on its own unless I put it in the fridge/freezer.

The soap did partially gel. It's probably a combination of the low quality silicone and high temperature I guess. I use the cheap molds when I'm testing new recipes, designs or methods because early on in my soap making journey I ruined a really expensive mold doing CPOP for the first time. At...

So I've been lurking here for about 3 years now and have gotten a lot of good info here but never really had anything to say until now. After 2-3 years of formulating, making and testing cp soap (and a few other skincare items) I finally decided this was the year to start selling. I applied for...
