    Facial Cleanser for mature sensitive skin?

    I feel like my cheeks are forever itchy and that's where I usually get pimples too. My face has just become very unhappy. And it feels oily where I don't remember it ever being that way before. I'm already past that... time... if you know what I mean. I'm trying to find a way to deal with it...

    Dry vs Liquid extras

    I've found that powdered is less likely to turn your soap an ugly brown and less likely to scorch.

    Facial Cleanser for mature sensitive skin?

    So I've been thinking about it. Maybe SCI? Not sure that means I will need to balance ph or not. I do have ps80 and capb and I have sci. I also have rose hydrosol and cucumber extract that I haven't used. I have french green clay and white kaolin clay. If I use water, I will need to add a...

    Facial Cleanser for mature sensitive skin?

    I adore ice cream and cheese so I really hope those aren't the problem. Seriously, no one said acne would become a bigger problem around age 50 than it ever was when I was 16. lol. Since I haven't gotten many replies, I guess it's back to the drawing board.

    Should I buy a new scale?

    I have a kd8000 and love it. It works beautifully for whats needed. It doesn't need to be perfect. These products are homemade.

    Facial Cleanser for mature sensitive skin?

    Normally, I use my own regular soap bars for my face. Well, they're fantastic for the rest of my body but my face has started to protest. I'm almost 50 and its just not cleaning my face the way it used to. It always feels oily and I have the appearance of pimples to prove it. I'm long over that...

    Bug Bite recipe for everyone

    Be glad you don't live in Louisiana. The cockroaches are about 3 inches long. They live on the banana trees. They aren't a threat to you but are really disgusting. I'd love to go back to California. It was just beautiful went I went to visit for Disney a few years ago.

    Gift Ideas

    I made and sold these not this last Christmas but the one before. Last year was so difficult, I couldn't afford the materials to have baskets for that Christmas. These smell like cookies. Lotion, Sugar Scrub, Soap, Bath Bomb, and lip balms in Peppermint and Buttered Rum. The box was wood. I...

    Etsy alternatives

    Yeah, I've spent the last three days on etsy looking for a soap dish that I'd like. I actually found several that were exactly the same as on Amazon from many different sellers but were much much cheaper on amazon. There's one with the price that's $12 for one including shipping. On amazon, it's...

    Exactly. I connected square when I first started so I could take payments using the same app. Imagine my surprise when I found etsy taking a cut of every sale I made through square no matter where I made the sale. I was livid. I'm glad I noticed after they only managed to get maybe $10 from me...

    Square pulled that on me. I disconnected etsy when etsy took part of the sales fee when I sold in person at markets. I've stopped selling on etsy altogether. It's not like I was making sales anyway.
