But mainly for cosmetic makers who target black people to lighten their skin.

Anyone else throw up in their mouths at reading the title, or am I alone?

I use this type of silk as well [emoji1533] I agree with it having a lot to do with the soap recipe. I use silk in all but one of my recipes and I can absolutely tell the difference in slip, lather, look and feel.

I agree, this debate it’s purely personal, I don’t use FO’s because I’ve always found them to have an aura of sugar and chemical, no matter the scent or usage rate. FO’s do last longer in soap as that’s what they’re designed to do, I just don’t like them and won’t have them in my house . I...

I’ve made a good few batches where the scents lasted beyond 6 months, I only use EO’s as I find FO’s tend to stink a bit of ‘lush’, I don’t sell at the moment but have no intention of using FO’s, I did buy one once as it was on offer but I had to throw the bottle away because I stank of sugar...

I tend to use cling film on all surfaces I’m using, because I’m messy. I usually have a tea towel underneath the lye pot as well incase of eruption. When you’ve finished just throw the cling film away

[emoji854][emoji854][emoji854] my garters tiny anyway she’s about the thickness of a sharpie. My hamster would probably win in a fight [emoji1533]

Ahhh that'd be why, I think my closest Poundstretcher's is on the other side of London. That's a similar price to B n M's but again, the store's are so far between and I don't drive, the cost of a cab makes the trip redundant XD

That's fantastic, where abouts did you get that from? I get my coconut oil from Sainsburies (KTC 2.45 per 500g ) as it's the cheapest (both online and instore) that I've been able to find, apart from B and M's but I don't have one close enough and they don't deliver.

I’m not sure of the US (or NZ for that matter) prices as I’m British, but is the intention of this post to get others to do the same based on where they are as a point of reference for others? Or are you just discussing NZ vs US prices ?

Apologies, I didn't think to check the date. I'd gone too far back in the forums and hadn't realised.

Depending on where in the UK you are, I strongly suggest checking the foods of the world isle for 2.45 p/500g jars of coconut oil (it's the same brand that sells on amazon/ebay for 7/8 quid a jar) and checking small middle eastern corner shops for olive oil, I manage to get mine for 9.99 p/5...

Thank you!! It is 100% yeah, I’ve used it with peppermint at a 40:60 and bay & cedarwoos atlas as well (my favourite blend but it’s just for personal use) I didn’t infuse any of the oils no I just used the EO. Thanks, it’s a 2:1 Blue & Green with no TD

I haven’t posted on here before but let’s give it a go. These are rosemary cold process, three days old so far so haven’t tried them
