I love foodie scents! Especially chocolate and vanilla. And I like fruity scents as well. Don't like musky, powdery, or flowery :(

Out of curiosity, why won't you use them anymore?

I love the green-blue! What did you use to get the colors?

They look beautiful Seven!

Science is important :razz:

I used a chocolate tea for one of my batches...turned out terrible...smelled really bad. It's the only batch that I can't use...it sits in the basement in my storage room because I can't bring myself to throw it out :(

Where did you get the book from? Sounds like an interesting read.

I haven't done anything soapy related in almost two weeks! I hurt my thumb...see the doc on Thursday. In the meantime, I'm living vicariously through all of you...so keep the pics coming :)

I found this hysterical! When I soap, in my mind I'm Walt :) What did you get at CoastalScents? Was it soapy related? I've only gotten makeup from there, so I'm curious.

I had soap a few weeks ago that had droplets all over the top. I was given the same advice...to zap test it. I think it was glycerine weeping out because there was no scent..I was too scared to zap test it. I waited a few days and it absorbed back in. I zap tested the soap since, and it was...

Your white bars look lovely :) I'm a newbie too, and have been making anywhere from 13oz-28oz of oil...and measuring in grams. I round up for oils and down for lye...I haven't had a zappy batch yet. My newest favorite recipe has lard at 45% and olive, coconut, and a touch of castor for the...

If anyone is into audio books... use code: HOLIDAY14 at audible.com and you get membership for $1.95 for the first month or first three months...I clicked too quick to remember LOL. Plus I went through ebates.com and will be getting another $12 cash back...plus, I get a $25 credit in January...

So the real question is...what are your plans for batch #2? :D

Gorgeous! What did you use for the colors? Other than the sparkly gold mica :)

Have you heard of the spoon swirl? That may be something you can try if it gets too thick on you again.

You made soap! All the pretty swirls and stuff will come with more experience. I really like the pink one :) I'm a newbie to and have found that even though I don't always get what I was aiming for, sometimes those happy accidents turn out just as great :)

Are there marks on the bottom saying what kind of plastic it is?
