I'm not complaining about the mushiness or the glycerin. I was doing some research and came across the process and the claim. Just wanted to know if anyone knew anything about it. I love my soaps the way they are lol

Hi all, I came across an old article about removing glycerin from soap to get a longer lasting bar as the glycerin is responsible for the 'mushyness' if left in humid conditions or too much water, but why would we want to remove the glycerin otherwise? and the process seemed a bit archaic. Does...

thanks guys

Hi, Can anyone tell me if there is a calculator that you can formulate conditioners with? Or is it all just trial and error to see what works? I know there are tons of recipes out there but if one wants to formulate their own, how is it done?

Good to know. If it's exfoliating scrubby I will like it lol. If not lesson learned. Thanks for your feedback

Hi Guys, So in the 1st pick the spots occurred after I spritzed with alcohol, not sure why. The second bar with the oil settling on top I strained and now letting it become hard. I figured out that I should've done a water discount. I'll post new pics. I did three grinds. 1. I ground up the...

I'm hoping the oils do absorb. The 1st pics with the sweating looks fine this morning and I realise that some of the marks is from spritzing with alcohol. The recipe I got online i cant remember the site but i did run it through the lye calc and got the same thing but i got info from another...
