So I made a Green Tea & Activated Charcoal Soap and my friend is interested in purchasing. I boiled water, added real green tea, and a day later when I made soap added it to my soap base. My question is, how I include green tea in the label? Do I just put... "Water with Green Tea" or just...

I want to make a honey and oatmeal soap but after reading and watching soap making videos, I realized that a majority of them do not bother to color their soap. Yes I agree that it has a nice light brown color, but what if I wanted to make my soaps more colorful? Use bright yellow or white or...

I'm making an unscented green tea soap with activated charcoal (yay!). I infused green tea in boiling water and put it in the freezer overnight. I was wondering if I can sprinkle some dry green tea on the top of my soap as decoration? What I'm really worried about is it becoming moldy, either...

I want to make an unscented soap with oatmeal and organic honey. I've read that 1 tablespoon per pound of oil is rule of thumb when doing so, but I have never added any sugars to my recipe before and I'm scared that it might volcano. I'm trying to make a 4 pound batch. My mold gets pretty hot...

My recipe includes 18.86% Coconut Oil, and I'm worried that adding coconut milk will be too drying to the skin (since I heard too much coconut can irritate skin). What do you guys think? Should I use another type of milk?

Someone sent me a message here through the forum. I clicked reply, wrote something down and submit but it didn't show up and nothing happened. So I rewrote the message again, submitted, and it still did not show in our conversation message. Is it not suppose to show up? Does it only show up...

This is my collection of soaps for Valentines Day! Just wanted to share :P Sorry if the picture is too big I don't quite know how to resize it :(

The bent a hanger in order to do my swirls in my 4 pound mold. It's pretty thin and I think it's okay but my swirls never stray too far from the color so I don't get the wispy swirls I see everyone else get with their soap. For the pink soap I made for Valentines Day, I added the colors in...

I have a question I hope I can have some help with. I've made CP soap and sprinkled Pink Hamalayan Salt on the top. Left it for 24 hours, cut the soap (came out fine), but after a few days I feel like my soap is crying. I did not use any embeds so I know it is not glycerin tears... I noticed...

I'm just organizing how I list my ingredients in descending order of predominance. But I have a question... it might sound silly. I purchased 1 pound of clear melt and pour and 1 pound of white melt and pour from a company and they have their own list of ingredients. I want to add embeds to my...

How do you clean the container you mixed lye and water in safely and properly so that the container can be reused?

I've made the same batch before with the same ingredients-- the only thing I did different was discount 2 oz of oil from my recipe, separated it into two cups and mixed in two different colors. Afterwards I separated my batch in half, added colors in, the scent, and poured it into the mold. Am...

I have made 3 successful batches of soap. I usually do one batch a day but since I'm pressed for time and I wanted to try to sell them around Valentines Day I decided to do two batches in one day. And that's when hell happened. All I did was double my batch size, mixed more than usual since it...
