    Issue with Soft Bath bombs

    Too much corn starch and Epsom salt. You need to lower the percentage to 10%. It's very humid here. I use soda 60%,citric acid30%, 5%goat milk powder & 5% arrowroot. My bombs are hard and sturdy despite the humidity.

    DO NOT drop your red mica!!!

    Lotion question

    Can you use seeds? Sesame seed oil is light and easily absorbed. Rice bran is another thought. I use them in my lighter lotions.

    I made dish soap!! That WORKS

    I gave a sample to my daughter and her husband to try-they totally agree: this stuff works fantastic on grease! I know coconut oil soap is supposedly hard on the hands but so far this potato water soap hasn't bothered my hands at all. I saw this first on the yahoo liquid soap forum but...

    Coconut oil, KOH and potato water made the best cleaning, sudsing liquid soap I've ever made! I'm doing another batch with some leftover potato water. Love it!

    What to do with Soap curls?

    Yes, I rebatch most of the time or add to my laundry soap. I was hoping for some nifty cool ideas for a soap that would use these. They are green but have blue, green and white edges. Thoughts?
