    CP spots

    How long have these cured? I've had similar spots that went away as the soap dried. No idea what caused them, but the spots didn't stay in my case.

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    That sounds delicious (pumpkin bourbon)! Bath body sprays are on our list of things to take a shot at, along with in-shower lotion bars, shampoo, conditioner, scrubs, bombs, and about a million other things....Its a pretty long list.

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    My partner's ex-MIL asked for a bunch of bars to hand out to the staff at the hospital so we packaged up a variety of bars last night for her to bring today. Hopefully the nurses like them! I watched as my partner did a bunch of work on our website. Currently trying to figure out how to fix...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I've always thought it was ironic that I use soap to clean soap batter off the soapmaking equipment. The wand spray head in our sink is pretty powerful though and that really helps. I just blast everything off with hot water and give it a wipe down with a soapy rag that I suds up with a salt...

    Hello!

    Confetti Soap - Why do the math like this?

    It seems like she is trying to achieve a known, specific batch weight once the confetti is added, maybe so that she can have the same size of bars come out of her mold as her other soaps. If she just added the confetti bits to her normal, unadjusted base recipe, the end result would be a batch...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    https://miconaturalsco.com/ I see my typo...its "Mico", not Micro. Just noticed that! They seem like a new distributer so I didn't buy much from them yet, a 16oz bottle of babassu, 4 oz bottles of kuikui nut and rosehip and some sodium lactate. I've been emailing back and forth with their...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I went off shopping for a new source for oils that ships inexpensively to Hawaii...found MicroNaturals with free shipping to HI! Bought a few small bottles of various oils to try out, looking forward to seeing if they are quality or not. Pricing seems pretty decent considering free...

    Sustainability of Oils

    Couldn't agree more. It's so difficult not to buy in bulk over the internet though, especially if you're trying to make money in any business. No judgement; I'm the same person. I shop local, until I see that I can buy a similar product on Amazon for half the price and won't have to leave my...

    Sustainability of Oils

    I'm personally not opposed to animal fats. Yes, they still in some small way contribute to the demand for the overall animal product industry, but as was pointed out, lard/tallow are byproducts that need to be used. I've been staying away from animal products mostly because of the demand for...

    Sustainability of Oils

    Hi everyone, new member here. A question that's been swirling around in my head for a while: how are we to understand/judge the sustainability of the oils we select for soaps? Palm has gotten a lot of attention for a good reason, but I'm sure the farming of other oils is contributing to damage...
