Shunt2011, Please delete this thread, for your forum’s sake. It doesn’t belong in this happy place. I got some great advice until tonight, when it devolved into some kind of s storm. This thread doesn’t belong here and neither do I.

DeeAnna! Bad mood today? I seem to have offended you. It’s fortunate that my self worth isn’t the least bit determined by you, otherwise I’d be tempted to feel sorry for being here. Is that what you want? I’m not going to stoop to analyzing your motives for your posts, and I’m not going to...

Hey dixiedragon. Nah, I'm gonna leave it alone unless they come at me, and then I'll pull out all the stops. Like I said, I have nothing to lose. I've collected enough dirt on them to sink them if I have to, including a certified lab analysis of their products proving what I'm saying. I'm just...

I'm not going to mention a name. There are several soap companies with multiple shops where I have a footprint - Hot Springs, AR, North Florida, Texas, and other places. I'm sure I've already attracted attention, but like I said, Discovery would be a real problem for them. HEY and thanks for all...

Hey MGM. They're careful not to publish blatant lies. It's done IRL. I've walked into several stores myself and they've told me right to my face, using almost the same phrasing at different stores, like it's scripted. Virtually 100% of their customers confirm this when they show up at my stalls...

Hey all! My doughnut-shaped bath bombs are some of my best sellers. I put an icing on them made of cocoa butter and baking soda, topped with sprinkles. That's great during the cool months, but it's melting at my farmer's markets in the heat of the summer. Does anyone have an idea for increasing...

Hi all. I’m out of ideas. I’m an honest soapmaker. I honestly label and advertise what’s in my soap. I never call it organic, and only call it “natural” if it’s made with essential oils, not fragrance oils. HOWEVER, I have a competitor in my own market who has grown much bigger than me by lying...

Hello everyone, How do you clean your soap room floor? Mine has a brick floor, and I do not clean it daily, so I get buildup from dripped soap and oils, and bits of soap from unmolding and cutting bars. Soak it in vinegar, maybe, then brush and suck it up with a shop vac? What do you do?
