Thank you so much. I am allergic to diary. Is there any way I can adapt this? I have constant pain too.

"floaties are fine, sinkers are stinkers." This is great to remember! I will take notes! Thank you :)

The worst thing that will happen is you will have a higher SF than you planned. What a relief! Thank you :)

Thanks Steve :)

Thank you kchaystack :) Any ideas on my frozen oils? Should I melt them to about 110 degrees?

The lye looks like chopped off chunks not flakes (from BB). I ordered the beads. Doesn't it mean that if the lye heats up to over 200 degrees it's reactive?

I'm really not sure. I panicked because I had avocado in it and I didn't want it to turn black. Thanks for your responses, Teresa and Misschief :)

I am going to call today.

I was confused & I am still confused. My interpretation: the above recipe for an astringent aftershave could be sold without approval by the ATF.

:???: cmzaha, are you always this nasty?

Thank you so much! What is SDA? I just found it = Specially denatured alcohol (SDA) Does selling the aftershave ONLY online make a difference? What about recipes for alcohol free aftershaves?

Everything gets so complicated!

Gentleman, this is very helpful! thank you so much. so https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aftershave an aftershave with containing only 1 to 3% alcohol wouldn't need approval by the ATF at this %. Would it then need a preservative?
