    hdpe molds

    all my moulds are lined with hdpe and I have found over time they get a film on them and no longer stick. until then I cut the soap loose with a fine wire and it works great! been doing it this way for many years now. it also depends a lot on your recipe as to how bad it sticks. might play...

    "man" smells

    i experimented with Dragons Blood this year and promptly sold it all out to golfers in this area since i called it Par Four. it's as much the name as the fragrance for most men.

    Does anyone actually soap lilac?

    LYE Help no what is best

    i buy all my lye from them and it's good quality. the only difference between the two grades of lye is the parts per million of foreign matter in it. the food grade is more pure, but the tech grade still makes good soap. i use that all the time with no problems at all. HTH

    soap cutter

    i string my wire cutter with fishing leader wire from Wal Mart. it's a 30# test wire and never leaves any drag marks nor does it need to be retightened all the time. it holds the tension very well and is smooth so it leaves a very smooth surface on your bars. i just wipe each wire with a...

    Scent for oatmeal soap

    i make my Oatmeal soap with Almond Milk and Honey FO and i can't keep it in stock. it's my best seller now. even better than BRV which was the best seller for years.

    SoapSupplies.net?

    i order 90% of all my FO's from soapsupplies.net and have been doing that for years. never had a bad one yet and the service is next to none. just make sure you order enough to make the flat rate shipping work for you. if you order 1 or 2 bottles you still pay the same rate!! i usually order...

    Dragon Blood

    i recently soaped the one from NG and it is fantastic!! i used TD to whiten the background and did a green swirl in it that held up just fine. it will turn very dark brown if you don't use the TD in it though. the one from NG smells exactly like the one from SGS. i have both here.

    Anybody Tried NG's Dragons Blood FO?

    i finally got around to soaping this fragrance and it came out beautiful!! the soap smells exactly like what i had from SGS. i can't tell any difference in the two at all. i'm thinking they may be from the same supplier. i used TD to keep it from darkening and then swirled in the pot to make...

    Anybody Tried NG's Dragons Blood FO?

    thanks for the reply. since i was ordering from NG anyway i took the chance and ordered a bottle of DB, too. i'm hoping it will be as good as what i have from SGS and from what you say i think it will be pretty close. maybe after we both soap that we can compare notes then on how we like it...

    Anybody Tried NG's Dragons Blood FO?

    i've smelled the DB from SGS and i love it but would like to know if anybody has tried it from NG? they have it cheaper, and i'm all about prices, but i don't want to buy it if it isn't as good as what SGS sells. anybody have an idea?? thanks!!!

    Guys vs Girls
