I think we should have a thread for our disaster soaps. That baby poo one wins hands down right now!

Thank you @earlene . I don’t think I could duplicate the results on this one. I like the pink and I like the rivers. I think the lines are a little odd (hence the saggy skin). I packait up for friends and called it by its fragrance, which is lavender mint. @Zing I can’t believe you haven’t...

Just cut one of the loaves of soap I made yesterday. A drop swirl. And I think the friend I showed how to soap now has the bug. Mwah ha ha.

So here’s another in my 2020 series of weird soap. I think calling it saggy skin would be the right name for it. What do you think?

Beautiful soap @Misschief ! These are the lotion bars I made yesterday. How have I never made these before?? The cream colored ones are a Soap Queen recipe with cocoa butter. I left them unscented because the cocoa butter is just so yummy. The pink ones are @Zing inspired with meadowfoam oil...

I have another soap to add to that thread. I think I’ll call it saggy skin. Photos to come.

I completely agree. I’m not disparaging her product. I think the packaging is lovely. Her website is nice (although it doesn’t seem to be working when I try and click through it. And good for her that she got a write up in NY Magazine. She’s going to have a huge waiting list, which will probably...

I read a review of someone trying a lotion bar and loving it so much she got her mother and grandmother hooked on them. What blew me away was that they cost $45/bar. @Zing @Misschief Is that the going rate? I might have to give up my day job. 🤣 And they didn’t even mention meadow foam oil. 😁...

Looks so much better without the yellow. Baby barf soap has been named "Beautiful on the Inside" and sent to friends along with some much nicer ones. It's part of my 2020 series of mishaps. I think we can all relate.

Do you have a photo of the transformation?

I just bought that fragrance for a friend. Looking forward to trying it out. Your soap is very pretty.

That makes sense. Thanks

Thanks! These suggestions are very helpful. I looked on The eo calculator, but must have missed whimsy. Maybe because I have never heard of one of the ingredients. It’s a great starting point. I may try @AliOop s version with sandalwood.

Hi all, I recently bought some Vetiver because a friend used it as part of her perfume (lavender, patchouli and vetiver essential oil). I was really taken aback by how strong the essential oil is. Does anyone have any advice for how much to use in cp soap? Let’s say I wanted to do the lavender...

I’m enjoying the litsea and also the cedarwood. Both new EOs for me to play with.

Lavender, lit sea and cedarwood.

Cut a drop swirl. Pretty happy with it.

Here’s another take on the pull through that I thought was interesting for 2 reasons. 1. Cutting the stencil from a Pringle’s can lid. Genius. 2. An alternative to the round soap. I think it could be interesting to cut the Pringle’s lid smaller and then use the can as the mold. So many...

I think those are pretty. I haven’t tried this, but have watched way too many videos of other people doing this technique. Having a Goldilocks batter. Not too thin and not too thick seems important. Using squeeze bottles with the long tips attached. And pulling up slowly. Can’t wait to see your...

Can’t wait to see the results!
