I found it extremely weak out of the bottle so didn't even want to waste my oils on making it, besides it had a very weird smell to it. Maybe I just got a bad bottle?

I love Lavender Fields from WSP, it's a BBW dupe and is a nice lavender with floral undertones. I sell tons of it in soap, lotion and scrub cubes and WSP has free shipping on all of their FO's which is really nice. Good Luck P.S. I got some of the lav maruska body wrap mentioned and I...

I'm not sure, but I don't see why you couldn't add them into another batch. Someone else more experienced with salt bars hopefully can give you some advice on their past experience. Try it and see if you like the outcome, that's the great thing about soaping, it's an ongoing learning...

I add mine in after the cook and have never had a problem with my bars not hardening up. (knock on wood) I have tried adding it in with all of the other ingredients but do not like the ammonia smell, seems like it does fade a bit over time but I can always smell a touch of it and also think it...

Congrats on your first batch, but be assured if you're like the rest of us, this is just the beginning of an obsession :D Soon you'll be dreaming of soap, watching out the door for the UPS man to arrive with your new batch of soaping goodies and you'll be talking soap to everyone who will...

I make HP exclusively. I have no patience to wait weeks while soaps cure or for the wonky things I've heard that fo's and eo's can do to the batch not to mention that the lye can affect the fragrance and color out come also. I like Maria love the fact that my additives added in after the...

I've been selling on Etsy for almost 4 years now and I totally agree with what Tabitha has to say. Debsmad, I do not generally contact every buyer to let them know an order has shipped as I normally ship out same day or next day and my clients get thier items within 3 days, I do contact...

Congrats :D

Hi, Food coloring is not recommended, you can use cocoa powder but the cocoa smell wont normally carry through as a fragrance for the soap, it works great as a colorant though. I add 1oz per lb. of FO's and normally a bit less than that of EO's, however there are guidlines on what is skin...

I totally agree, this is what I do with my recipes:)

On your shop's homepage it will show you how many time each item has been viewed. Click the link at the bottom of my post, it's to my Yarn shop on etsy and you'll see each item is listed along with the number of views, date listed and the item price. Pamela

Hi, I make HP exclusively and like Maria add in my milk, clays,colors etc after the cook just before I add the FO or EO and stir well. I soap at 30% water discount and superfat at 7%, my bars harden up very quickly and I have almost no shrinkage to speak of. Don't take the numbers on Soap...

It will work in M&P, Lotions, Creams, Scrubs, Whipped Soap(like bb and wsp carries) etc. Just mix equal amounts of it with your fragrance and let it set at least 2 minutes before adding it to your product. Good Luck:)

Don't forget to bring your Business Cards :D

I use 10% castor and 7% SF and have NEVER had a problem.

Sweet Almond has a short shelf life, try substituting Jojobo oil for the Sweet Almond or even Olive Oil. I love castor and have no one complain of a bad taste, it's very moisturizing and acts as somewhat of a humectant. I do not sweeten or color mine, I only use flavor oils letting your nose...

I'm with you , I HATE designing them, priting them and everything to do with them....and I've spent the better part of the evening doing it for a show on Saturday......and I'm not even halfway through :(
