Is anyone making Himalayan Salt candles? I'm not really a candlemaker so am wondering how to go about it. I've heard that they add negative ions to the air to balance the harmful positive ions emitted by electronic devices. They are also great for your health as they contain 84 of the natural...

I tried the sugar scrubs with MP soap and found them too solid so wanted to do some of these softer solid scrubs and really like them. They were easy to make. I think they'll be cute to add as Christmas gifts next year. :) I lined a baking pan with plastic wrap. I combined my oils, butters...

I started the day off with a full hot bath. I added 1/2 cup of Himalayan salt and a bath bomb I made that had grapefruit EO and raw shea butter in it. Heaven is here on Earth. I used two different soaps :) the first to exfoilate and the second for it's soft creamy lather. The only...

I've had the soap making gear ready to go for a week or more. I've had a hard time following through with an idea. As soon as I think I'm ready to go I look at the fragrance oils and change my mind again. So, today I finally got the scales out and went for it. I wanted to try a three color...

Of all the soaps I've made so far this is my fav. I love the Lavender and Bergamot FO. It's like heaven.

I have a lot of pulp left over from juicing apples, carrots, cucumber, celery, etc... has anyone tried adding it to soap? or the juice? would it be beneficial? Also, even if there were a face mask or other treatment. Thought there might be some Alpha Hydroxy benefit in the fruits. Seems...

I don't know what came over me to start making soap at 2am. I wanted to break some rules I think. Turned on the music, threw together a new base recipe that seems quite nice. I haven't used many colorants so wanted to experiment. Right away I was disappointed because my red went brown, my...

this quote crossed my path today thought it was worth sharing.... 'The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn; the bird sleeps in the egg; and in the highest vision of the soul, a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of...

High quality soap making ingredients are a turn on for me. I can spend hours online searching out the best prices for oils/butters/botanicals etc... I think the better the ingredients, the better the soap. I just love natural gorgeous oils and butters. I love essential oils but still use some...

Just wanted to share a soap I used to make years ago. There's so much helpful information here I wanted to give something back. So, I made some felted soaps this morning. This is a batch of hot process soap I made 6yrs ago. Still good to use too. I made it in the shape of beachrocks...

just wanted to share a success. Just getting back into soap making after a long break. There are so many new methods now it's a bit of a learning curve. I decided to do a naked soap with a new recipe and using only Lavender to scent it. I am really happy with the result. I want to try the CP...

Hi, I'm new. Yesterday I made my first batch of cp in about 5 yrs. It seems nice except is oily/sweating. I made the recipe myself and everything went well. I added extra fragrance oil impulsively when I may not have needed too. It's fresh out of the mold and cut. I'm wondering if this is a...
