Hi everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Terra, I am a 24 year old stay at home mom to my two year old son, and we have a baby girl due in July!
I have this sudden dying urge to learn how to make fancy soaps. So I stumbled upon this forum. I have never made any soaps previously, and I've been watching youtube tutorials ALL day, and doing as much research as possible. Right now I am in the process of getting all the supplies I need. I thought about doing melt and pours, but I just love how the cold process soaps are completley unique, and everything is from scratch. I have a lot to learn, so I thought this would be a good place to come and ask questions.
First off, and most importantley...
Is doing cold process soaps even safe for pregnant women? I've looked up some information already, and from what I understand I should be okay if I use my stove vent, wear a face mask, and gloves... is this correct?
Second... I'm looking for a scale. I'm finding some good deals on ebay, does anyone have any suggestions on what kind of scale? Is cheaper not better when looking for a scale?
What is the best place to purchase soap making supplies?
