    Thoughts on a “certain soap franchise” in the US

    Here is something else that’s fishy…. If you go to the site and check out their soaps..EVERY SINGLE review of each soap has a 5 star rating🙄. Ya gotta be kidding me. Their uncured soap is getting 5 stars??? Something is definitely rotten in the kitchen.

    Thoughts on a “certain soap franchise” in the US

    I wasn’t sure I could mention this soap company on here🤷‍♀️, but the “ workers” and/or owners have been showing up on one of the Facebook groups (once a month it seems) basically giggling ( no kidding) on how well they are doing, and they seem to enjoy throwing digs into us quality soapmakers...

    Thoughts on a “certain soap franchise” in the US

    Hi Everyone!! Not sure where to post this.. but I’ve come across one particular Facebook soap group where “ once a month” a certain soap franchise gets mentioned and boasts curing their soap for 3 days and then selling it to the public. Personally.. I believe in following good soap making...

    ? What is this?

    I honestly find using the coconut milk powder from BB or making pure goat milk soaps does make for a creamier, lather in my soaps.

    ? What is this?

    I did mix the coconut milk powder in with water. It is a BB coconut milk powder that I mix in warm water according to the instructions. I then place the in ice cube trays and let freeze. I’ve used BB’s coconut powder multiple times and have never gotten this type of result.

    ? What is this?

    So.. I mixed up coconut powder and distilled water and froze it.. mixed my lye in it before it was completely frozen .. ( I mixed it really well.. did not have any unmixed lye.). I took it outside (35 degrees) to let it cool while getting my oils ready. The lye solution turned chunky.. and I...
