    Help with hair

    If I may add a few comments here. I have spent a year formulating shampoo bars for my friend (thin straight hair) and myself (full, slightly curly and heavily damaged). Nothing I read worked for me. I was determined to make the lye shampoo bar work as I didn’t want to deal with any of the fine...

    FOs - Scent Memory Fragrance

    Angels share and mossy Forest path as well as a few others are being reformulated to be skin safe. Exotic orchid and musk is another one and it is a beautiful fragrance. Boho spa is stunning. I personally love many of the new ones - London calling, tuberose and spicy cardamom. I just finished...

    FOs - Scent Memory Fragrance

    I soaped with it. I made a wine Castile soap with Merlot. I can’t honestly say if it discolored because the wine had it a lovely burgundy. It may have darkened some over time.

    Jewel Weed (Poison Ivy Soap)

    That is very true. It is ironic right. Stinging nettle causes a rash that stinging nettle oil can cure. I think she has a sense of humor

    Jewel Weed (Poison Ivy Soap)

    I use dried jewelweed in oil infusions regularly and it makes a fine poison ivy salve. I also use the oil in soap and it’s beautiful I have significant amounts of jewelweed on the property as it is native to my northeast home. I also own a native plant farm and use quite a few herbs in my...

    FOs - Scent Memory Fragrance

    I think they are completely different. Whispers is light and playful to me relative to biblioteque. I prefer biblioteque because it’s deep and mysterious.

    Soap is not good for your skin

    My skin has been healthier since using my own soap. I’ll never go back to commercial soaps

    FOs - Scent Memory Fragrance

    Kristen does have sales. Often the entire site sometimes slow moving oils, she always restocks - she just wants people to know what is on the shelves. I have been to HQ and she will be moving to a larger place but for now is limited as to how much she can have on the shelves or in stock...

    FOs - Scent Memory Fragrance

    I don’t have santal 33. I had it once but my nose didn’t get much out of it but I love geranium and it has sold out twice for me. Smells fabulous in soap - I used French green clay in it as well which makes it quite luxurious. Terra smells so much more earthy to me while geranium is more floral...

    Lovely. Seven veils and rose and peppered plum discolor the most even in hot process. Palo santo from sm is my favorite of the kind.

    Unusual fragrances

    I am not affiliated in any way but I have been to scent memory hq and do know the owner. I am someone who struggled to find scents that didn’t give me a headache and would work in candles. This is a company that has both and I don’t mind telling people that. I know which ones are dupes and...

    Unusual fragrances

    There are quite a few that are unique, more so than Midwest, but there is not a separate category for them so may be harder to find.

    Unusual fragrances

    I buy from scent memory or Midwest fragrance exclusively. SM fragrances are great alone or great mixers. Many are niche and unique. I personally love Winter solstice which is clean and smells like a cool winter day in a forest in Buffalo where I love. Also seven veils which is sandalwood and...
