I have 2 soaps I make that are circular and have just been putting them in bags, but I'd like to learn how to wrap them like this. Anyone that does this or can help, instructions or anything, would be greatly appreciated! [/ATTACH]

I've read that essentially you can wash your hair with any soap. While I've had a recipe for a shampoo bar for some time, I haven't actually made it yet. But a few days ago a lady at the market asked me if I sold a shamp bar and that got me thinking about it again. I've put off making my own...

I want to make a salt bar. I went to bramble berry and picked up their ocean rain fragrance (out of all of them this was the only one i liked for a salt bar), then when I got home I looked on the back and saw that it said it accelerates :( I'm using all coconut with 15-20 sf, haven't decided...

Any pics of your ugliest rebatch to share? Or ugliest soap in general? Here are two that I happen to have pics of, but I have made even uglier ones.

So I was trying to get rid of my hydro soy and made 3 different soaps. All of my regular soaps are rustic and only one color, well one of my soaps has two colors. So I'm not really versed in colorful or swirly type soaps. They are orange patchouli, ocean reef and tuberose.

Is this something anyone here has done? What's it called and do you think there is still glycerin left in the soap? "The new base she has created combines sunflower oil, rapeseed oil and coconut oil with sodium hydroxide and water, mixed together and boiled to accelerate the saponification...

Made my first pencil line soap. Not sure I like it. Husband hates it. :( not sure why the pic is upside down sorry Oh no the pic is upside down :(

I just made olive oil soap, literally 2 hours ago. Well, I just saw that it was done gelling (so fast!) and took off the plastic wrap on the top, put the plastic wrap in the sink and rinsed it, since i didn't want to throw a blobby thing with raw soap on it in the trash. OMG it was ALREADY...

I haven't made salt bars in a few years and was about to make up a batch. Do I subtract the weight of the salt from the oils. If I used my 5 lb mold and used 2.5 lb salt , would I make a batch of soap weighing 2.5 lb then mix them to equal 5 lb?

I've seen these soaps http://estrellasoap.com/ around at my local walgreens and other places (i think lol). Anyway, I thought they looked cool (cooler than my soap), which gave me some envy. But looking at the ingredients, it seems it's another one of those companies that withhold some...

A soaper just told me that palm and coconut have almost the same exact effects in cp soap, like the hardness but also both being drying to the skin. I'm just contemplating soaping with palm because now there is sustainable palm oil. But if it's the same thing as coconut, why would I need...

So a big part of some of my recipes has been hydrogenated soy bean oil from the sage. Mostly because 100% coconut is too drying and I don't use palm due to the whole orangutang thing and I live in a very environmentally conscience area. My soaps are not soft or anything. I picked hydrogenated...

I found this site a few days back and looked at every soap they have. What do you all think? I wonder how they get soap stamps for every kind of soap they make? I bet they payed a lot but they look pretty big-time. http://naturalhandcraftedsoap.com/

I'd like to add avocado to one of my soaps but since it's so mushy and prone to rot in "real" life I can't wrap my brain around why it wouldn't go bad in CP soap.
