Apricot cream rustic style

I have this and they no longer make it or atleast I cant find it. I made a 38 oz batch and i believe i overdosed it. I put in 2.7 oz maybe less ( it's been a few batches inbetween)....I contacted the company. I've used it and no skin irritation. It was made hot processed and I thought it...

Thanks guys! Yeah, not into the layered, chunky rustic look. And is there an easy way to add colors? I was adding beetroot and it worked but definitely a whole other ball game when mixing....maybe mixing it into the coconut milk before adding to the batter?

Oh okay! I thought maybe I did something wrong. I do love the cleanup afterwards compared to cold process. It's a breeze. Thank you!

So, I don't see a lot on hot processed soaps. I am read mixed reviews about scooping it when it reaches the dry mashed potatoe stage and when I do and I unmold ( even when I press firmly) it almost has these weird ....layers. My question is,can I scoop it in when it's in the jelly like...

The recipe calls for five cups,which I used.

It turned out lovely.

Nope it's not that. I used this recipe, swapped out palm oil for lard and opted out the shea. I used coconut milk for my water replacement as well. I used 5 cups of super fine pink salt. I tried hot process for the first time and all was perfect until the salt sucked the life put of my...

I made my first salt bar yesterday on a whim. It turned out great. I followed the recipe Soap Queen shared but substituted out the palm oil with lard. It calls for shea butter and luckily I had just enough for this experiment, however can I use castor oil in replace of the butter? I'm looking...

Lavender and tea tree oil!

Orange creamsicle. A whipped up a batch of soap yesterday after my daughter found my orange cream fragrance and asked me to make some.

I used a copper mica and yellow lab color.

That's okay!

I have giant plastic racks I cure on. Thank you for your input!

Oh, sorry...it's a M&P base glycerin

I made a cold process honeycomb pattern goatsmilk soap. It turned out really well. It went through a partial gel phase but overall I am happy with it. The last step I hff ave is drizzling glycerin on the top for a melted honey effect but should I wait til it cures more or do it now since I cut it?

Alright, ya'll have me wanting to try salt bars. The thing is I think my recipe is off. I was using the soapmaking recipe builder but I use goat's milk and this is very high in fat compared to other goat's milk I have bought ( I buy local goat's milk ). Anywho, I was reading it is mostly coconut...

I read that you are suppose to cure for a minimum of 6 months. I'll make a batch a forget about it :P Are they pretty popular? Maybe I should make some samples as well. Not sure how much I should make. Everyone seems to love them. It's just me creating soap right now. I am needing to get larger...

Well awesome! Looks like I will be creating one of these bad boys for my collection.

It has defiantly darkened since they have been cut. The marbling is beautiful inside.
