    FO destash

    De-stash = selling extra FOs that I don't need. I could never use all of these. They are mostly sample bottles that I bought just to sniff. Some I got to compare to other similar scents that I already use and others I used for a while then moved on to different suppliers.

    EO's that dont hold up in CP

    Vanilla absolute? Because there is no vanilla EO. Even vanilla FOs IME, don't hold up very well in soap. If you want great scent try FO's. There isn't a single EO that I've tried that I would recommend. They just don't hang out long term in soap. They might smell good and strong for the...

    DOS nightmare - baby soap recipe

    What do you mean by spoiling? DOS, or something else?

    Elements Bath and Body

    The patchouli honey did well for me, discolored to tan but the scent sticks and is very nice. Awapuhi didn't come through in the CP soap. I like my scents strong and this didn't do it. I do like the smell though and have kept it for syndet shampoo bars.

    Soap sticking to liner

    Really cute looking soap. Sorry, can't help with the liner issue. I'm silicone only. It doesn't look as bad as you probably think it does. Is it still soft enough for you to take the rub it smooth with your finger. If I end up with small divots or a little piece that pulled off I pick it...

    CPOP soap makers

    I only CPOP when using an FO that is slow and doesn't like to gel or with a formula that usually gets ash, so I don't have a great amount of experience with it. I haven't had any problems with my silicone molds in the oven but my husband built wood holders for them for better stability so that...

    What's the Deal with Salt Soap?

    I got the individual silicone molds after many many many failed salt bar batches. In fact even after the molds it took me a while to get it down. I just made my first good batch the other week. I was having crazy ash and lots of crumbling. The salt soap looks really neat, feels nice in...

    I am so confused about CP vs HP

    For me it's all about the look and workability factor. If it's the same formula the quality wouldn't be different.

    ROSE SOAP

    I think it's pretty uncommon with completely dry herbs. If there is any moisture left in the flower petals then I'm sure they could rot. It kind of depends on what you're using and how you're using it I guess. Dried parsley leaves in your soap are unlikely to mold. I've seen some people put...

    Best place to buy clays?

    I like how NDA packages their clay. Camden Grey is cheaper I think but you get it in a plastic bag. It's worth it to pay a bit more for the nicer container but probably doesn't matter if you're only getting a very small amount.

    Shocking!

    Ahaha. Hazel, you're too funny. Why is it Fragola, that whenever a thread comes up to do with a safety issue, you come on with your devil may care, try it and see, what is the harm anyway spiel? It seems like the majority of your posts are oppositional. If we were talking opinions here...

    DayStar favorites

    Oh geez. I'm going to have to rethink that one. I just got Bittersweet Kisses in the mail yesterday and hated it at first whiff. So much that I didn't give it a second thought. My mother happened to be over and loved it. :roll: I didn't even detect the patch. :? OK, just sniffed it...

    Looking for the BEST Cotton Candy Fragrance

    I just soaped the one from NG. One of our fellow forum members used it in a swap soap and it was amazing. Mine doesn't seem to smell as great as hers did but I'm super critical of my own soap. I HPed it on her recommendation. I think it may fade or otherwise misbehave in CP. It smells...
