At @Zing ’s suggestion I thought I would start a thread for people to post their soaps that have faces. @Catscankim has a good one... This drop swirl that I just cut has comic book villain faces.

I’ve been seeing a lot of posts recently about soaps that have turned out looking like meat. I thought it might be fun to share them in a meat thread. @Dawni You made a ham soap recently. This one was from the first (and only) time I rendered tallow. The whole house smelled like meat, the color...

What do you make of this video? They say they use baking soda. Is that a mistranslation? Also, I think the way they stack the soap to cure is beautiful. Wonder how that would play out in my home. 😁

Hi gang, Thought I would ask where you get (and what brand) your lavender eo. I finally ordered a 16oz bottle and am very disappointed in it. It’s made by Sun Essentials (purchased on Amazon). It accelerates like mad, which I don’t remember happening with whatever lavender I had used before. And...

Hi all, I recently bought some Vetiver because a friend used it as part of her perfume (lavender, patchouli and vetiver essential oil). I was really taken aback by how strong the essential oil is. Does anyone have any advice for how much to use in cp soap? Let’s say I wanted to do the lavender...

Can anyone tell me what kind of cutter this is and where to find it in the US? Is it even made for cutting soap? Looks like it could work well. Has anyone ever used one and could give it a review? I saw it on a YT video.

I’m not talking about dirty soaping dishes here. Since I started making soap, I decided I needed nicer soap dishes to hold the pretty soaps. I saw that @KiwiMoose just made a beautiful one. Just wondering if others have felt the need to step up their soap dish game. Do you have a favorite...

hi everyone, So happy to have found you. I made my first batch of soap about a year ago so I could then teach my Girl Scout troop. Both batches came out great. I put it aside until recently when I decided it would be nice to make soap as holiday gifts. I have completely fallen down the rabbit...
