Wow, can you believe how fast time flies. I don't post much on this forum as I'm always on Facebook nowadays. Amazing how far I've come in this journey. I love it. I did stick with CP for my first two years, now I'm venturing into the scrubs, lip balms and bath treats. I've loved ever step so...

Hi Hazel, Actually no, the base was my first batch that had a lot of olive oil in it. So I added a tint of green. Then when I did the 'frosting' I realized quickly that it would take too much of my titanium white to make it white, so I added two shades of green till I got the look I wanted. It...

I also put glitter on top that I use when I do face painting as I know that its cosmetic grade ;) I get my glitter from Mirae at http://theclassyclown.com/STORE/Glitter.htm as 1/2 lb of it is only $24 for the pixie...

hey bridgetmoon, I don't have Skype but I think it comes in the Facebook application/chat thingy, but its not that reliable. Might just be my internet connection. But I would love to meet up with all sorts of soapers and learn more from their mistakes. LOL cheating maybe just a little but heck...

Hi everyone! My name is Amy and I'm brand new to the whole concept of making soap yourself! I am so new that I haven't even made my first batch yet! :shock: I've heard from others in my area, Twin Falls, Idaho, that no one was willing to buy the person's soap. Not sure why, if it was the...
