I did not know that! Thanks @dibbles !

I've been wanting to try infusing indigo powder into OO! May I ask, how much powder to oil did you use?

@Zany_in_CO was active here as recently as this past Friday (5 days ago). They're probably busy with the holidays. I hope they're checking out everyone's ZNSC entries on the Un-challenge.

As a Canadian, I would love this! Are you willing to share your base recipe (without florals and EO)? If not, I totally understand! You can also PM me if you'd like. <3

My "Forbidden Christmas Cake" So, in the summer, I found this silicone Bundt cake mold at a charity shop. I instantly envisioned a soap like the cartoon Christmas Cakes we all know and love. I did an ITP swirl using Dark Brown Oxide (Candora) in the brown part with Vanilla...

The face!!!! Is that a mold?

So, I tired doing a "soap icing" on a particular project that's been on my bucket list. I had some freezer paper that I wanted to use up so I rolled some into cones to use as piping/icing bags. But these proved ineffective. I'm not sure if it was that I just needed practice, or if I should...

Do you have a Superfat/Lye Discount? What if you did the same recipe with 20-35% lye dscount?

I buy mine from Fizz Fairy (Eucalyptus Rain Premium Fragrance Oil) I'm not sure what their shipping to the states is, though. Yes, it does accelerate CP soap so I have to work VERY quickly.

Hello! I am no expert in charcoal soap, but did do some research back in the day when charcoal was starting to become more mainstream. Whatever activated charcoal I bought was from the local "health food" store. It was the only one they had designated for cosmetic use; they also had AC rated...

BB has a FO call "shave and a Haircut" I have a soap bar that has it and it's amazing! I purchase from Candora their FO Barber Shoppe which I think is exactly the same. If there are any Canadians who are looking as well. But Candora actually sells a lot of stuff that I've seen from WSP, so...

I use Castor Oil at 5% in my oil mix. I like that lather! I'm not as versed in science of this as others, though. I think Castor Oil creates a more creamer lather (?) than you're looking for a more bubbly lather. Others might be better at explaining.

I would suggest trying a flat wet felt first to get ahead of things and then wrap it around the soap. See if this is helpful. She uses a bamboo mat, but I've always used a towel. (You can also look up videos of people wet felting with their pets' fur :P) Here is another video from the same...

I had been gifted felted soap before, but never made it myself. As a user, I highly recommend! It's a built-in exfoliator, and when it's done, you have a little scrubby you can continue to use; specially great for the face. Because it's felted, it won't clog the drain, unless you let the...

You can spray with isopropyl alcohol and the sweat will evaporate.

I make a beard oil for my brother and it's 50/50 Argan oil and Jojoba. I used to add a few drops of Cedarwood EO and Lavender EO, but he doesn't care about the scent and it's cheaper to leave them out. My mom also likes the mix as a general skin moisturizer.

my local small business grocery store gets me 4L Coconut oil for $25 CAD and 3L Olive Oil for $15 CAD. Better than anything I've ever found online. For specialty oils and some fragrances, I like Candora (Candora Soap and Soap Supplies Candora Soap) or Island Escape Fragrance (Wholesale &...

Nope

Hi @Dakotah_SoapWorks ! Some people steam bars that have soda ash on them. I tested a few alongside also just spraying with alcohol (no steam) and with steaming and then spraying with alcohol. The steaming and then spraying with alcohol from my tests looked the best. So, I was steaming the...
