    First Recipe - Superfat Question

    Ok here's my recipe. My FIRST ever creating my own. I have been using Bramble Berry quick mixes. I love them but decided it was time to try my own ideas/choices of oils. I have Apricot Kernel Oil and I love it so I'd like to use it. I came up with this: AKO 6% 1.74oz...

    Asking friends/family for opinions

    Hi! I'm a newbie. I'm going to give a few friends & family my products (the safe, zap tested ones) for their opinions on things like lather, moisturizing or drying, did it feel good on their skin, etc. I may or may not sell in the future but I definitely want to give as gifts in the coming...
