I'm sorry but don't have the recipe but Mrs. Zing has made laundry detergent for years. She uses borax soda ash Fels Naptha soap, shredded "a ton" of water Good luck.

As DeeAna said, everyone has their own personal preference. I used to be rashy (not disabling, just irritating) and every dermatologist recommends Dove Sensitive which I used for decades. I got into cold process soap for the creativity and was surprised that my skin health completely turned...

At the risk of running afoul of the censors, I am truly LFMKittenLovingAO out loud right now!!

Yeah, she's super under-achieving there with her baskets, so you noticed, too. I do have her address and can do her a solid....

Great job, @Midnight_Sun , @Deb's mess , and @GuacamoleSalad !! Beautiful soaps. Those hidden feather soaps are so tricky but yours came out great!

Can you please post your recipe with everything including all the additives? It looks great, by the way! Whenever I get an unexpected result, I call it "rustic."

Can I copy you and re-name my mechanics' soap "Scrub-a-dub"?

I made 50 lip balms.

So exactly how many hours are in your day over there?!

So my two kiddos didn't have a lot of feedback on my premier shampoo bars but Mrs. Zing likes it -- she feels like her hair isn't coated and heavy and that it's more manageable. I also gave a bar to the next door neighbors asking them to be beta testers and today I got a long text with a lot of...

Well, this thread led nowhere BUT am glad to see a little scandal in the forum that called for some censorship! ;) So best wishes getting settled in to your new home and most importantly, have you unpacked your SOAP SUPPLIES?!

Er. Mer. Gerd! I can't believe this! I'm up there with @Cindy D. and @Tammyfarms?! Those bees! That swirl! Not false modesty, I've just been outta commission much of the year and all the entries were incredible. I kinda like the occasional "open to interpretation" challenges because...
