So I picked up a few of the 1lb $15, and I'm in love so far. I used a blend of honeycrisp apple, new England maple(both part of the sale), and spooky cider(not part of the sale) last week, and it smells so good. Used 4% ppo and probably should've used 2.5 or 3%. They performed great, although...

Same here! I don't make a lot requiring preservatives, but I have looked into it extensively because my niece wants me to make her a sugar scrub, and I briefly toyed with the idea of making lotion before going the lazy route and buying a base. I was surprised to find the preservative in it as...

That's actually a good idea. I was thinking certain embeds too. Good questions, which I asked, thanks! I did find an email finally, and have been waiting since Wednesday or Thursday for a response, if I get one at all. I linked this thread and offered to send some back, so we'll see! I remember...

Thanks, i bookmarked it this time! I kinda felt like a stalker to the guy who made it, reading through like every post last year, including posts on different threads lol! I'm more wondering their ratios, if they include other "proprietary" ingredients, and how different companies compare and...

When I bought thiosulfate on Amazon, most of the reviews were people ingesting it for some sort of gut detox, treating topical fungal infections, or using it in a pool/fish tank. I'd probably test it on myself in lotion although I'd be weary of selling it without further research. The MP...

Second attempt! I wanted it to resemble a subtle maple leaf, so I only used 3 lines (Is that what they're called?) of orange/yellow. I waited for medium trace since I wanted the "branch" parts a bit thicker. I should've stuck with light trace and hand stirred the individual portions, because my...

It really is the strangest thing! I'd honestly agree it's like plastic. That's what it tends to feel like too. I definitely think they messed up somewhere. I got some of their other "natural" bases, and they all work like high quality melt and pour. This goat milk one is the only one that gave...

It was my first time! I've done all the "basic" swirls for a bit and figured it was time to try this one, since I love the way it looks. I'm hoping to try again tomorrow!

Awesome!! Please let me know if you like it, I've seen them used in videos and they look so cool

In guessing it's similar to cleaning the corners of a silicone mold, but I'm not sure. It'll probably be a pain though!

Been a while since I CP soaped, and i went big. Didn't quite end up being a "secret" feather swirl since I eyeball-ed too much of the black AC portion, but I like it! Used my usual lard recipe with coconut, olive, shea, castor, scented with shave and a haircut. Second one is a honey soap...

It certainly was! I figured I'd give it another go. We've had record high rainfall here, and it's incredibly humid and warm, low 70s. I didn't add the water/glycerin since I wanted to see how it performed without the ultra hot and dry environment my kitchen is in winter. There was pretty...

It starts tomorrow, according to their FB! I was super unclear that that's why I was waiting until tomorrow lolol. Sorry!

You're welcome! I haven't ordered it yet, been too busy lately. I hope it works out! If you get it, let me know what you think! If I end up getting it first, I'll report in too :)

Of course! I tried finding reviews before ordering and didn't find many, so I made a note to myself to post one after extensive testing. I should probably add that since they're more candle/non-body inclined, when their website says soap safe: yes or no - it isn't just talking about soap. It...

So about a year ago I took the plunge and ordered from them. They had a handful of poor reviews on this forum during covid which weren't good, but they're relatively close to me and I figured why not? Plus, everyone had issues during covid, so I figured I'd give them a shot. Gotta say I've...

This popped up on my Amazon feed recently and I considered going for it, since I've never used one of these cups before. Silicone, 17oz, 5 channels. There's only one review from a soap maker, but for $14 I might just go for it LET'S RESIN 17OZ/500ML Split Cup with Handle https://a.co/d/hUJkTJb

MP is my first love. I haven't used expired soap, but you've had many answers on that already. That said, I had a major MP issue about a year ago, and I believe dehydration was a huge factor. It was the worst soaping experience of my life in all honesty. I bought like 60lbs of MP from Aztec...

I bought the bw-924 from Aztec. I believe it's coconut based, not soy based, but sometimes they're sneaky about what exactly is in it. Everything I've seen says coco-aprcitot blend. I bought specifically because its supposed to be soy free, but who knows? It would be nice if they recommend a...
