Micas is what I vote for and use. I assume you mean sugar scrub for body, but if you ever venture into lip scrub territory, ensure your micas are lip safe - not all of them are. Here’s a picture of sugar scrubs colored with micas.

Good idea! Once my OO supply is a bit more depleted, I might have to give it a go. 😊

I made an itty bitty batch of GM soap to try out the teeny tiny guest loaf mold I bought on sale from WSP - it only holds 300g of batter. I already eluded to the wacky soaping session I had, but if you missed it…. I drew a design, did the math on %s and grams of batter for each part, then made...

Thank you - I am a bit slow on the uptake today, I was picturing tip down and a drippy mess. Duh me! 😉

I was at Restaurant Depot and Rice Bran Oil was $42.01 for 35 pounds. I don’t know what I’d do with 35 pounds but isn’t that a steal??

Having trouble visualizing this, but I’m very interested in understanding. Anyone have a photo to share? TIA

I could see it in Safari on my iPad when it was posted but now it’s gone. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi @Sudds - go back to post 1 in this thread and you’ll find all the details. Based on it, I believe the entry thread will open tomorrow’ ish. I just took pics of my entry tonight. Can’t wait to see what you made. 🌸

Oh, I’m excited to hear how you like it! I haven’t done many modifications to the recipe - just cutting the CO in half and subbing SAO in, then using Meadowfoam for the 5%. I’ve only made hand & body lotion not being quite sure what I’d do to make it more suitable for facial lotion. Keep me/us...

Oh gosh, @VikingChick - I’m so sorry this happened. Falls are bad news, and I’m glad it’s not worse. I had a honey based wound product before and they are magical. I don’t have any suggestions, but I am sending you some positive, healing vibes your way. 😊

Oh wow, that’s cool!

Made a version today - used Shea and cocoa butter at 30% each, and added 2% beeswax. I want to see where the balance of “not melting away quite so fast” and “oh, that doesn’t glide as well” meet. 😊

I made soap today for the April challenge and it was the most unorganized and unprepared session ever! I did all the work on planning my design, and figuring out percentages of batter, then forgot to pick a FO which means I also hadn’t looked up usage rates, and I didn’t get any colors out and...

Congrats! Your soap wrapping looks very nice. Ohhhh, that looks great! Congrats @Mobjack Bay 🥰

Such a pretty soft green color. I used a similar color on my first batch, too. Congratulations on your soaps! 🥰

Made the last batch of lotion from my first batch of DIY recipe concentrate, so I also made a fresh batch of concentrate. I designed new labels for the bottles - that is the most difficult part! This week I got an order for 70 jars of sugar scrub for a friends 50th birthday next month. She is...

@Barefoot Farm Girl I love a goat named Pig! Our sweet fur baby dog was named Guppi 😂🥰😂

Oh how darn cute are they??!! 🥰😍🥰 He looks like a Mr Wigglesworth to me, but consider that my dog in the picture is Doodle Bug (first name Doodle, middle name Bug) so my ideas are bound to be funky. 😂🥰😂

Hi and welcome 🌸
