I don't view it as a misuse, after all we're part of this creation and can use but not abuse it.

Same here. I soap with the window open and then cure in a friend's house who loves having the scent in her basement.

We eat copious amounts of almonds and almond butter. Wonder how much pain I'd have without that? :)

I agree. But I must say the mica worked. I don't know if it will show in the picture. This is my Campfire soap.

Yes. I wonder what they mean by cooking salt? Coarse salt?

@Zing If your line is charcoal, how did you keep it from smearing when you cut it?

Nice! I recently did a Frankincense & Myrrh soap and tried to dust the top with mica. Didn't like the looks so "painted" it by wetting a finger smearing the mica. Liked it much better.

I am just now starting to use mica. I only make CP soap. If I did a dark blue background and put a sprinkle of white gold (WSP) in it would it look starry? If so how much for the stars?

Oh dear @Saponificarion I'm going to have to cancel. That's not helping you.

I should have added I used NDA's ylang ylang FO instead of EO. It smells really nice in a blend.

The most intoxicating smell and very complex is this blend: https://lovinsoap.com/2014/12/juniper-berry-soap/ My absolute favourite even though I'm not fond of some of the components. The only thing is I strain the crushed juniper berries out of the lye water. Mine were sharp as glass in the bar.

Not really worth saying because it's unavailable. But K & W had a Ramblin' Rose that was tops. They are now out of business. I wish I knew where it came from. I've never smelled another to compare. Expensive but didn't have to use very much.

Sorry if I overacted. I'm not a Newfie. I don't even have any Newfie friends. Just sticking up for my fellow humans.

@Zing not in the least offended! We're sharing ideas! Perhaps sub nothing, just add a little patch. It is indeed outside my price range too, but oh, dark patchouli is a must. A luxury I allow myself.

Oh, what is #1? And which one would you delete in favour of Patchouli? Just to see what you think, I've already chosen the one I think I'll sub.

I'm considering this! With Eucalyptus, peppermint and rosemary all being somewhat camphorous, I'm thinking to sub one of them with Patchouli.

NG's Perfect Man is so strong, I only use 2 oz. in a 5 lb(oils) batch. And then I have to remove it to my cousin's house to cure.

Well I did get you wrong. We don't need any more categorizations or divisiveness. Too bad people make such assumptions.

I wonder if their Perfect Man is like NG's.
