    what to do with expired lip balm

    I have yet to learn how to make CP soap. My biggest fear is the Lye triggering my asthma. I am extremely sensitive to chemicals, fragrances, and scents. They trigger my asthma and I end up having a very bad attack. Usually end up using my nebulizer, and occasionally have to go to the ER/

    what to do with expired lip balm

    We had a lot of left over lip balm from BA that we ordered for my parent's 50th anniversary party. They are 1 1/2-2 years old and now they smell like the sunflower oil has gone bad? What can we use them for other than personal use? Can we make candles out of them?

    Bubbles/White spots ALL over soap surfaces

    Looks like Glycerin Dew - It is caused by humidity. It doesn't harm your soap, just makes it ugly. MP soap should be wrapped in saran or shrink wrap within a day or two of unmolding. Sometimes I can put off wrapping it the weather is dry. But when its humid glycerin dew gets on some MP bases...

    Expired Melt and Pour- HELP?!

    this is from WSP's website MP Soap does not have an expiration date because it will not go rancid. The high percentage of propylene glycol required to produce this type of base acts as a natural preservative. Most MP Soap Bases have a “Best Used” date. The Best Used date is important because MP...

    Cool experiment. The third soap in the pic reminds me of the mechanics soap that I saw when I used to clean car dealerships...Lava I think it's called. How does the soap work on grease/oils etc?
