    My first sea salt CP recipe

    I did 8% sf, 20% and 15%. I like 15% the best but everyone is different.

    Your formula is not too much different than mine. I just tested it again (I think it's been about 3 weeks curing now? ) and I like it much better. It does seem to make my hair frizzy. I'll have to figure something out. My other hair products like leave in conditioner and oils are not helping...

    Can't belive how many people are copying this Etsy seller..

    I've seen his soap, I like the look. Im also on not sure if ppl are copying so much as doing the same thing. I know a lot of ppl who do swirls but not sure if I would say they are all copying eachother. That rustic look has been around a lot longer than he has been on etsy.

    Yeah, I'll try again when it's cured. I have about 9 bars thinking I would have a nice stash for myself and some for friends. It's nice and conditioning on my hands, I just don't think it's cleansing enough for my type of hair. If it doesn't work for me after the cure, I'll just give them...

    more shampoo bar questions

    So the shampoo bar I made last week totally sucks. I didn’t try it on my hair because it's not cured yet but I checked the lather by washing my hands. For one, the essential oils and lemon fragrance really clash IMO it's a bit gross smelling. For two, the lather is not dense at all and the...

    Packaging help

    I'm changing my packaging too. I always had my stuff in those bakery/white cookie bags and no one could see them. I put a label on the front and back, it was cute in my opinion. The reason for this was because I felt like it protected the soap and kept the scent more intact while still allowing...

    That's awesome Beckster51, I'm so happy your hair is growing back :clap: I'm glad you found a bar that works for you. It's been about a week since i've been using soap to wash my hair and so far so good :)

    How to wrap circular soaps like this

    that's a great idea. Etsy sells a lot of them with cute designs. Are there any good label brands/suppliers anyone can recommend? I would think for this kind of wrapping a fairly strong adhesive is necessary to hold it all together nicely, right? I get mine from onlinelabels.com and so far...

    more shampoo bar questions

    I just made my first shampoo bar yesterday ~ so excited to use it and let my friends/fam test it out n get some feedback. I made a 20 oz batch which came to 9 bars. Three are super ugly so those will be mine and I'll give the other six away. Just impatient and it will be hard for me to wait...

    Goat Milk Soap Skin Benefits?

    And Charcoal is not affected by alkali, so it stays intact. There is plenty of information on how it works for acne and pore size, for any non-believers, it's quite simple really as charcoal absorbs many times it's volume, sucking oils and stuff out of your pores or off your face. It also...
