Just curious, why do you not like high oo soaps? Im always learning.. :)

no never used their oakmoss but i really loved their honey gingerbread, sunshine lollipop , and blue

Yes that is the company. They state they are going out of buisness on their home page.

I am so bummed that Backwoods is going out of business. Does anyone know of a dupe for their Sunshine Lollipop?

Can anyone recommend a place that does custom printed cigar bands? I would like to use cigar bands to package my soap and while I know I could probably print them off myself, I would rather just order them already printed. Thanks guys!

I have smelled Lavender EO from 5 different companies so far and they all smell a little bit different. Some seem to have more of a calming effect on me. Some smell a little sharper, some smell a little more medicinal and some smell a little bit sweeter. My favorite so far is a from the company...

Practically every recipe I see contains olive oil. Is it really that necessary? I know technically soap can be made with out it but everyone seems to deem it as necessary as coconut oil to make a decent bar of soap. I know that olive oil is gentle to your skin and moisturizing but that can be...

I am trying to get more consistency in the size of my soaps. My usual mold always holds 100 ounces of batter. That includes oils, lye, water, fragrace, etc. The problem is, I want to try a fragrance that supposedly will not turn brown with the addition of stabilizer. Ill need to add 3oz of...

I would like to try sodium citrate. Can you recommend a percentage? Thanks :)

You said that you dont like how sugar adds to the toughness of the bubbles. Could you explain what this means. I found your post very informative, thank you. However, im confused about bubbles being tough?? Is the lather scratchy?

Just be careful to never go over the manufacturers maximum amount. Otherwise you can cause someone to get a chemical burn. Fragrance oil will eat through and dissolve many materials and can be damaging to your skin if you use too much.

I was wondering if anyone knows who owned The Scent Works? Has anyone found a dupe for their Frost Apple? Also, does anyone know if her supplier list is for sale? I would be interested in purchasing her business. Thank you

I have been trying out Brambleberry Aloe Lotion Base. While I do like it, I just dont feel its quite moisturizing enough. Does anyone here use this base and if so, do you add anything to it?

My skin gets like that if I try to use a recipe with over 20% coconut.

What was the recipe, we may be able to trouble shoot for you

My wire cutter is leaving a weird texture, almost like little bumps, on my soap. I have seen this problem talked about before but I have not found a solution for it. Have any of you guys? Thanks

Thank you for the replies. I will try the salt and see if it works for me. As far as the tree goes, do you think that is just painted on mica? It almost looks like it is slightly carved into the soap, does it not?

Hi all, I came across this beautiful soap while browsing the internet. I love the effect. It almost looks like snow. Can someone tell me how I could go about getting this effect? Thanks :)

Thank you Kittish! I will try the company you posted the link for. :)

Good morning all, I am planning on making my own melt and pour base. I am following the recipe posted in Kayla Fiorvaniti's book titled "How to make melt and pour soap base from scratch". The recipe calls for 9.7oz of Myristic Acid I am searched and searched for Myristic Acid and I did find...
