unfortunately, they don't label it that way, so here's a link...scroll down about half way on the right hand side, just write down the info on HOSFO and take it to the store next time you go shopping...sometimes they have 2 or 3 brands and I've found they were all...

I love this method of soaping because it gives me all the time in the world, even with "drama queen" f/o's. this is a milky way plastic mold, and in order for it to come out in one piece I have found that using mineral oil to completely coat the mold and FORCING GEL afterwards gives nice...

sometimes I think i'm just "computer impaired" and it took a lot of nerve to finally choose a site and launch an estore...I just can't say enough good things about weebly.com 1. wonderful support, easy instructions and easy site construction...it just couldn't be simpler...basically just drag...

i'm trying to figure out how to post pics, and since the subject came up about using scraps of left over soapies, I thought i'd share...this is black raspberry vanilla by www.soapsupplies.net, which is heavenly @ 1 oz ppo...leftover rose f/o gratings, which made a very nice smelling bar! these...

i have been using www.tkbtrading.com high ph micas to color my soaps going on i think 5 months, and i love them! they have 100+ colors, and a $1.50 sample will color 4-5 lbs of soap. i usually use 1/8-1/4 tsp ppo, but have added more with no problem. this makes it very economical! tho...

a few years ago dh cut up six 2"x 12" pvc tubes for me. this was when i was still "warm+ soaping". i would line them with wax paper and tape the end shut. they were "self insulating" and i had no problems getting them out. now that i'm doing rtcp and COLD rtcp, i've had a few challenges...

this has me quite foxed! in my soaps i use anywhere from 30-40% hard conditioning oils (non coconut) including shea, lard, tallow, mango, and blends of these. sometime ago i purchased a 5 gallon bucket of homogenized (no stir) palm oil. i really like it warm soaping, but i've noticed that...
