    The Worst Salt Bar in the World

    I like salt bars for their own qualities but, if you were looking for a practical reason you would need a bar to lather in salt water I figure if you do any ocean fishing they would be handy (or for coastal hobo-ing).

    The Worst Salt Bar in the World

    I'm curious and you'd probably have a good handle on this with your market experience, would it be worth it to make a sign along the lines of "if you have had a poor experience with hand made soap in the past stop by for a free sample" or would that just burn up a bunch of samples as some people...

    You know you are a soaper when.....

    The fact that you are opening a new window to leave the SMF up also speaks to something.

    Ylang Ylang - can anyone explain the smell?

    Well I like it! I read somewhere that it's one of those smells that some like and most everyone else HATES. They went on to mention that people who like ylang ylang tend not to like Lavender and vice versa. I really dislike lavender. eta: I think it smells like a sweet floral similar to...

    Coffee EO

    I did a trifold infusion with coffee grounds CPed it. The lye monster ate all of the coffee scent (which was VERY strong going in). Was thinking about doing it again with HP and using the infused oil as a high SF anyone ever try something like this?

    Best simple EO combos for a "manly" scent?

    My very favorite masculine blend I have smelled so far is the blend kchaystack used in the alternative liquid swap. It was a cedar/lavender FO blend with peppermint EO. He did us a FO for the cedar/lavender blend but I'm sure you could get similar results with EOs.

    Free Windows 10

    I keep running into articles about Mozilla being upset about microsoft setting the default browser to Edge instead of some sort of easy choice for the user to default to another browser. The claim is that it is a little anti-intuitive to switch your default to anything other than Edge...

    Oh, and to convert to grams when I did mine I started with an online recipe and just weighed everything the first time then tweaked it via grams from there out. -Still haven't found my old recipes.

    deodorant recipe-converting to grams

    I went to find my recipe book from when I was messing around with deos and I CAN'T FIND IT!!! I moved between seeing it last so I'm sure it's in the basement somewhere. If I find it I'll post the recipe I liked the most. The Baking Soda got to me pretty quick and become very unpleasant so I...

    Soap scraps!

    Rebatch for new soaps, when I did this it kind of sucked cause the new bars were really really good and there was no way to re-create them. You could salt them out for straight soap to be used for laundry/dish soap. Chop up the color full ones for confetti soaps. Melt them down into a giant...

    Greetings From Blighty

    I had a friend of a friend make a killing selling an appropriate soap on a rope at the San Francisco Exotic Erotic ball when I lived in San Francisco. My bet would be the soap itself wasn't very good (he was not a "soap guy"). But he sold out his entire stock.

    Additives in Shave Soap

    How do you mean? It seems like one of those trendy magic unicorn farts ingedients in soap/cosmetics and the jury (of me) is out on whether it actually does anything other than make soap black and dirty up my lather but I do have a good gut level feeling about it. I like the skin feel after a AC...
