Gorgeous soaps!

Fascinating! Thank you for sharing!

Interesting. Baking soda feels more abrasive than regular toothpaste to me. Maybe the concentration makes a difference. Thanks for the link.

Very interesting! I am off to read these links. Thanks :)

I have used soap nuts to wash clothes but not hair. I was advised that soap nuts can be drying for my hair type so I never tried them. My hair is already extremely dry. My scalp barely produces oil. But there are many people who swear by them. I am not sure how you would incorporate them into...

I cannot tolerate 100% CO dish soap any time of the year. Then again, my hands can't tolerate commercial dish washing liquid either. Also be prepared that liquid soap does not produce suds like commercial dish liquid. However, I do find that liquid soap cleans better than dish washing liquid...

Thanks OP for raising the topic. Very interesting. Thanks for the links Dee. I read through them and I plan to make some dental soap as soon as I return from vacation. I can't wait. I have an unscented bar of castille at home that I will use in the meantime to satisfy my curiosity. Irish...

I dress up in a coverall with a face shield. I look like I am getting ready to weld a bridge. I also put a hair bonnet on my head to prevent hair from getting into my soap. This touch makes me look like the lady on the honey bunches of oats commercial. I realize that the coveralls are...

Good -- boy

I plan to never pay the priority processing charge. Their shipping is usually fast unless there is a sale. Once I have loaded up on sale items, I am even less inclined to pay extra money for processing.

I am so glad that you posted this. Would you mind sharing more details? Do you use a vinegar rinse? Do you have hard water or soft water? How long is your hair? Is your hair course, fine, or normal? Do you follow with a conditioner? How often do you shampoo? My shampoo bars just finished...

Hey there! No, ash does not form later. I'm not Susie but I use the method that Susie described. I run warm water over the top of the loaf before cutting it. I do this whether ash is visible at the time or not. The top of the loaf remains clear of ash. If I forget to wash the top, ash forms...

So Dee Anna- how did it go? Were you able to keep it short and sweet? Did they buy $100 worth of jingle bells?

I can't imagine what you must be going though. I am praying for your brother.
