    How are you storing your oils?

    New member! What makes you seek a new recipe?

    I'm a newbie at soaping, I've done about 4-5 batches of CP soap. My first batch, I followed a recipe and procedure I found online, and it turned out great. I had some overheating /cracking/alien brains before I unmolded, but that was the only issue. My first batch was straight from...
