Hello,
This is my first post as I am very new to soap making. I have made a few batches as practice and have read and watched everything I can get my hands on!
My questions are how ling after making the soap can it be used? I know the longer it dries, the linger it the bar will last, but I want to try my soap to see how it feels on my skin.
Also, should I keep my soaps in open air or is it better (especially for scented soaps) to be put in a breathable container, like a plastic storage tote with air holes?
I have made unscented soaps mostly and one peppermint soap, I am having trouble deciding which EO to use as they smell so strong in the bottle and they are to expensive (at least in the area that I live in) to buy them just to try. I like crisp, clean scents and also slightly sweet scents, could anyone make any suggestions?
I have had so much help from reading everyone's posts already! I am going back and reading the archives and I am about 40 pages back!
Thanks for any help with these question!
