    Making bath bombs in high humidity

    I did. I'm not sure what the photo was, but it was definitely the high humidity.

    Flat bottom bath bombs

    I did bubble wrap over foam and it seemed to work well. I also just got a ton of shipping trays used for apples from work, so I'm anxious to see how those do.

    BA Shipping times

    It took almost a solid two weeks for my last order to make it to me. I ordered on a Thursday evening. Didn't ever get a confirmation email. Called on Monday, they told me it was a "heavy" order but would be taken care of that day. Got the "UPS label has been created" notification that...

    Goat milk lotion shelf life

    I'm using goat milk, distilled water, e-wax, shea butter, avocado oil, almond oil, stearic acid, and fragrance. Then the germaben, of course. Everything gets washed with hot water and detergent, then sprayed with alcohol. Plastic bottles with a pop up disc dispensing cap. I ordered foil...

    Goat milk lotion shelf life

    I've started making goat milk lotion. With a preservative, (currently using germaben), how long a shelf life can I expect?

    Hi!

    Hello everybody! So... I ended up trying to make soap in order to justify having goats. I wanted cute fuzzy creatures, but my husband wasn't really into it. I was going to try saying that I wanted to make cheese from the milk, but I'm a terrible cook, so that wasn't gonna work. Soap seemed...
