    Wooden mold with liner - do you like yours?

    Paillo- Do you line the mold with freezer paper, take your soap out (when its done) and then put it back in the mold to cut it?

    Book review and other book suggestions?

    We have a tester out for every scent we have, and after 6 years haven't had a single problem. We break a few "rules," like having a lotion without a preservative (small batch, only in a container with a pump - every batch is microb tested etc...) It's a very successful herb store with tons...

    Book review and other book suggestions?

    I'm a big fan of the book Aromatherapy: A Complete Guide to the Healing Art by Mindy Green and Kathi Keville. I've been lucky enough to take classes with both these ladies, so I may be biased. When you're mixing an EO with water, there is no need for a preservative. We make "spritzers" at...

    Too many variables?

    Full water - Used BB ipod lye calc as my computer with Soapcal isn't in the kitchen - but I doubled checked everything. Its cutting better now, I'll have to try again, and go back to gelling and see if that fixes is. Thanks!

    High altitude unmolding problems

    I soap at 5280 altitude and haven't had a problem, and can't think why high altitude might effect it (but baking - ugh.) I use freezer paper in my molds as I'm not doing fancy shapes. For myself, I've found its important to give the soap a 24 hour wait before I un mold. Hard to do when you're...

    Too many oil choices for whipped butter.. help me choose?

    When I'm looking at dry irritated skin I like to go simple - Maybe some jojoba that infused with calendula (I love calendula for skin stuff and jojoba doesn't leave the skin greasy) and then shea butter and/or cocoa butter to firm it up and just see where that takes you. Or even just try...
