    Palm/Coconut/Beeswax container candles

    Has anyone ever tried this combination in a container? I am pretty new to candle making and not crazy about soy, so I have been researching other waxes and haven't been able to find much info on this combo.... TIA

    HP Pine Tar added at the end?

    Hello, I have only made PT CP soap, and I mix the pine tar (brickmore) with the same amount of warm oils and add it after trace. I do run it through the soap calc for the lye adjustment. For me I have found adding any FO/EO was a waste because the pine tar scent is so strong, it seems to conquer...

    Silicone rash woes

    Thanks Obsidian, Idk though what my white stuff is exactly, thought it was lye ash, but it is not, do not have a problem at all when using individual molds, have noticed it especially on soaps that have cocoa or spirulina?... in them. Any thoughts? Wiping all with the alcohol has ended the...

    Silicone rash woes

    Funnel pour - sticky and tacky

    I am no expert, so take mho for that - but your soft oils are 51% and 49% for hard oils, could that contribute to your softness/stickiness (esp. with castor and RBO)? - but your soap looks amazing, wish I could smell it!!! I just made a batch a few weeks ago trying to use up oils (and use up...

    My Experimental Honey & Beeswax Soap

    Wow! Those are beautiful!!! Does the beeswax have humectant properties like SL or is it just for hardening the bar? and I’ve always added honey at trace, should I be adding it to my lye water? Those bars are quite lovely!!
