    I feel really stupid right now

    Such a gut wrenching honest confession. But you will rise above. Like @Isg said, it is not that hard to do your own.

    Tea Tree Oil

    Sorry @Zing, she requested plain Tea Tree oil, so as not to lose her license. I'm not sure why that is, I didn't look into it. I know you're a great user of eocalc.com!

    Tea Tree Oil

    I have a customer who takes care of people's feet, most elderly, some diabetic, and she requested a lotion for feet with Tea Tree Essential Oil. So I can find safe percentages but does anyone have experience with how much would actually smell agreeable? That is, to people who would find that...

    Sorbitol

    @MelissaG, I bought it a long time ago for a certain purpose and just decided to use it up. But if you research this forum you will find that some feel that it boosts suds more than sugar.

    Sorbitol

    I used sorbitol for the first time today as per @cmzaha and it's the only difference in the recipe. I generally use sugar. I noticed a quicker trace in both batches. Has anyone else noticed that?

    Infusing orange peels?

    I have infused orange peels in vinegar for an all purpose cleaner. Not sure about using orange peels in oil for skin. Sounds rather harsh and you would have no way to measure how much orange oil is in there. Thinking of phototoxicity.

    EOs in water

    Since my E.O. water has some witch hazel in it and a few drops of gse, I don't do anything else. My experience is that it can sit for a few years without showing any deteriation but that doesn't mean there isn't any. I never had it tested.

    Syndopour: kaolin for slip?

    How do Canadian soap makers stay in business?

    One gets used to adjusting to wherever one lives. I search around until I find the best price and shipping just has to be accepted and allowed for. Also I live in a border town so if there's anything I want in the States I ship it to my aunt who lives across the border and bring it back to...

    Orange/Patchouli/Cedarwood CP soap

    @JanieH I just noticed that this thread is over 2 years old. Better to start a new thread and link to this one than to add to an old thread.

    Making sugar scrubs from soap shreds

    Is there anything else you can do with this stuff besides a sugar scrub?
