I am trying to figure out a recipe that makes a hard bar that is very conditioning. With the soap calculator if I go conditioning it goes soft and if I go hard it become less conditioning. If anyone know something that would make both high in a bar of soap, I'd love to know. Oh I don't want to...

Ok, I am still learning about how different oils work with each other, but with this list from the soap calculator (wonderful tool!!!) I have a question. I'm a guy, so maybe that is why, but... Is more better or have you found out that staying in the recommended range better? Example - I...

Ok this is what I am thinking! Can we begin a conversation about what you have found to or not to work on sunburns? I don't care if it is a recipe for lotion, a commercial product, certain oils, etc. I have yet to find anything on the market or home remedy to help take the sting or burn out...

Ok, I have a question! This is is from WSP - That is a short life for a great oil! My question is once you make soap with hemp oil, does the soap life decrease with having hemp or does it matter after the hemp in made into soap? does that make sense? Thanks for any insight. I will be...

Ok I have a question. I looked at other post and found conflicting information, so... I made some soap last night and it is hard or solid now. I took it out of the mold, but have yet to cut. I touched the tip of my tongue to it and felt a slight zap about one second after I did it. So does...

Hello ~ I ordered some unrefined Shea Butter and have a question! I have had this before and it had the signature scent and was kinda yellowish. I ordered more from a different supplier for a better cost for ordering more. This time the smell was a little less and it is gray. I have read...

Hi. I am working on making M & P soap with embedded items. I am wondering if anyone has suggestions for labeling such? I have two concerns. 1. small items that can be swallowed. 2. Items that may scratch someone. I thought about adding "Warning chocking Hazard" Not for children...

Hi, Just a thought, but what does everyone think about M&P soap, like little colored squares or something being added to CP during trace? I guess you would have to mix over ice and not gel, but would that work? Any feedback would be appreciated! Thanks! Jeff
