Hey Beachgurl, I'm sorry to hear that you have problems with the watrproof online labels, i just took one of my missprints from my liquid soap labels and ran it under hot water and rubbed it really well and there is no smearing or running of the ink, maybe there is a problem with the kind of ink...

Hey, does anyone out there have an inexpensive souurce in Canada for ALL NATURAL GOAT'S MILK SOAP BASE for HANDMILLING? I've been shipping it in from Philadelphia and it's costing a fortune! I buy about 300 lbs a year, so it would be really great to find a Canadian supplier.

Thanks Everyone, I tried the sugar at a rate of 1 TBSP per 2 LB batch of my handmilling goat's milk base and the results are absolutely amazing! My soaps now have a very creamy, thick, rich lather with lots and lots of bubbles! WooHoo!!!! SOAP FORUM ADDICTS TO THE RESCUE!! I also started adding...

That's a good question! I never thought of that, will they really spoil and cause a problem?

Fixed lip balm! Hey All, Thanks for the help, i tried the 1-1-1 and it was o.k. but still a little greasy, then i added an equal amount of coconut oil and it is perfect. I took a sample to my neighbor who uses Bert's Bees lip balm, we compared the two, and it's hard to tell the difference...

I also have this sticky mess problem with a 5ML vial of Labdanum from NDA, it smells great but is so thick i can't use it. I'll be watching to see if you get this resolved. Good luck to both of you? :?

Has anyone out there got any info on using absolutes instead of EO's, i've been rebatching for a while now and i find that most of the EO's have low flash points, therefore not a very strong scent in the finished product. I did some checking and found that the absolutes have a much higher flash...

Hi all, just another ? from a newbie!! Does anyone know of a supplier in Canada for blank sheets of waterproof inkjet labels. I have recently started making all natural liquid soap and can't seem to find a supplier for the labels for my bottles in Canada without paying a fortune, CAN IT BE DONE...

Hi all, I have already asked this to the aromatherapy/herb group, with little or no success. Maybe someone here has more info. I would like to know if i can add powdered "Soapwort" to my handmilled Goat's Milk soap, to increase the lather. If so how much and where would a person buy it in...
