@cmzaha Thank you for so generously sharing your recipe! Curious why you use both Optiphen and Germall Plus? Extra insurance?

I’m not crazy about these new pop-up ads that are showing up on SMF! I did, however, see one just now that made me think of our own @Ephemerella! 😂😂 Did you request this, girl? Like those “which ad experience do you prefer” things? LOL!!!

Thank you for that detailed explanation! I’m glad you were able to make the dividers work. I’ll definitely check out Winston and Walter. Thank you!

Where did y'all get your tall & skinny molds? I'm finding myself with a gift card to burn and thought I'd invest in a nice wooden one with a silicone liner...maybe even a lid! Of course Nurture is sold out unless I want to buy a 9 lb mold (o_O). Does anyone have this one or know anything about...

Interesting!

Congratulations to all!

I just meant that as long as your soap isn’t harsh, it probably doesn’t really matter that much what’s in it. Maybe consider a higher-than-normal superfat to prevent drying?

I’m thinking that for after-tattoo care, you’d be better off formulating some kind of water-based balm. Soap is soap, but what remains on the skin is more important for healing, in my (limited) experience.

I’m not sure I’ve ever heard the word “diarised” before, but I LOVE it!

I’ve seen that sky, @Zing! Thank you for the memories. Lovely soap and it yummy fragrance!

WOW!! Those are STUNNING!!

That’s AWESOME! Brag away, Dad!

You guys are making me homesick! From the Swedish American who lived in MN for 18 years, lol….although I never lived in MN until I married someone from there who had no Scandinavian ancestry! Go figure! LOL Well, yeah! Lol Love thos colors! But you’re soaping……unlike me who hasn’t for quite a...

I really want to do this challenge but I’m not sure I can make the time this month. So sad though! 🙁 Dang job. I’m looking forward to what y’all come up with!

You might do this already, but every time I open up a new bottle of liquid oil, I add ROE (rosemary oleoresin) as an antioxidant. That will help extend the shelf life (not indefinitely, but longer than without it).

it hasn’t gone grainy for me, but I don’t keep it in the bathroom. This one I keep out in my kitchen/living room area, where I usually use it after washing dishes. A while back I made a face lotion and added some sodium lactate as a mild AHA, thinking it would be helpful as an exfoliant as my...

I made HB&M’s Lavender Oat Dream Cream, but made some mods based on what I had. It turned out really nice! Here’s what I did differently:
