    Looking for a stamp

    My sister-in-law owns a sign store, they could make a custom soap stamp and give a good price. [email protected] Telephone: 814-943-3172

    what scale do you use?

    I'm certainly no "pro", I'm a newcomer as well. I've only made a couple of batches so far, I'm still waiting for most to cure, but happy with the results. I went to Bed, Bath, and Beyond and bought The Biggest Loser scale for $20. http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product ... =15947047& It's...

    Newbie question about avocado oil.

    I had good trace, maybe a little too much. It almost looked like old milk, large curds of cheese. It started to seize up before I could get it into a mold. I cut it yesterday, and it's hard and looks fine. My honey made me a wood mold, (I was using a cardboard box lined with parchment)...

    Newbie question about avocado oil.

    I tried GardenGirl's recipe last week, but I wanted to experiment with color and an additive. I think it may have been a mistake though. We read that you could use spices to color your soap, so I used turmeric. No problem there, but we also wanted to try an additive of orange citrus peel...

    Newbie question about avocado oil.

    GardenGirl, you've been so helpful, and I'll be trying your recipe when the order I placed last night comes in. I decided to try the 100% olive oil bar tonight, but then realized I did not have as much olive oil as I thought, actually almost none. Since I already had the lye water mixed for...

    Newbie question about avocado oil.

    I'll try the pure olive oil bar since I have plenty of olive oil on hand. I hope I like it as much as your wife and child! Then I'll try with some EO. I already had those three saved in a wish list on an order I've been waiting to place!! I've read how they are all good for sensitive skin, I...

    Newbie question about avocado oil.

    Thank you so much for sharing your recipe!! I noticed you don't have any fragrance in that recipe, does the bar smell pleasant without it? If I wanted to add EO's, do I need to deduct a small amount from one of the other oils? I'm sorry for the questions, but I don't want to do anything...

    Nice to meet you!

    Hello, my name is Amber and I'm from Pa. This is my first forum so I think I jumped the gun last night and asked questions first! With respect to proper internet etiquette, I figured I'd better introduce myself. So far, I've only made one basic recipe just to understand the process more...

    Newbie question about avocado oil.

    I found that recipe online, it was called "soap for baby skin" and said: may use on extremely sensitive skin. I figured it would have been a good one. I'll have to look around for another recipe, or try to make my own. Thanks for the advice.

    Newbie question about avocado oil.

    What are your thoughts and experiences using avocado oil? I have problem skin and want to make a soap that's good for me. I'm about to order a half of gallon, but want to make sure that this is an oil I'll want to use again and again. Also, any problem/sensitive skin recipes would be...
