I've used WSP Cool Cucumber in the past so I looked up those batches in my soap notes. Yep it accelerated in even my slowest moving lard recipe, and that's with no water discount. According to my notes, I used this FO twice before deciding I didn't like the scent enough to fool with it anymore.

Hi! I LOVED TSW FOs, but I'm not familiar with this one. WSP has a large selection of Lavender blends, so you might be able to find something similar there based on the scent descriptions. Sorry I'm not much help :( https://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/fragrance-oils/search/lavender.aspx

As a fellow CT tech, I'll share my recipe with you in a pm :)

Irish Spring FO from WSP is one of my favorites. Color it with Snake Island mica from Mad Micas and 'voila' - a St. Patrick soap :) I don't mean to overexplain, but I realize that not everyone is Catholic so y'all might not know the legend of St. Patrick (The Patron Saint of Ireland) where he...

I started making my own after watching and learning from a custom perfume shop in New Orleans. I add all my dry ingredients in a gallon freezer ziploc bag and stir them around with a chopstick / close the bag and shake the devil out of it like I'm making "Shake and Bake" chicken! Then I add the...

Parial gel can be annoying, but yours is really pretty! I'd call it 'Lavender Moon' and embrace the unintended design :)

Salt bars aren't great sellers for me, but I do have a niche group of customers who love them. Same with Castile soap. What I have noticed is that customers are more drawn to salt soaps with scents that go with a 'salty' or 'beach' theme. I usually sell out of Margarita salt bars (WSP Margarita...

If still available, I'll take: The Sage Flavor Oils Raspberry & Cream 1 oz 2.00 Chocolate Cream .6 oz 1.00 Vanilla Banilla .5 oz 1.00 Grape 3.3 oz 6.00 WSP Flavor Oils Cranberry Pucker Sweetened 1.8 oz 2.00 And the 2 lbs of African Black Soap

I love your colors!! I have this FO as well but haven't soaped with it yet - but that's what I was thinking - warm browns and golds with maybe a white swirl with Sparkle Plenty!! BTW, this is from someone who bar-hopped on Bourbon Street in my misspent youth, lol! Now I'm a Krewe member (meaning...

Again, this is personal preference. I'm not sure why you would never use 10% Castor oil in any recipe? My favorite salt bar recipe is 90% Coconut oil, 10% Castor oil, 80% table salt with a 15% SF. After playing around with percentages, I found that the bubble factor was significantly higher...

Personally, I rarely use the name of the FO as my soap name. Here's an old link on my thoughts: https://www.soapmakingforum.com/threads/fragrance-renamers.60797/page-2#post-609972 I do describe the scent on my website to the best of my ability: www.minoubleu.com

My salt soap loaves have to be cut in about an hour, but I use a wooden loaf mold so the added insulation is probably part of the reason. I also prefer a bar with more salt. My favorite is 80% table salt in a 90% CO 10% Castor recipe with 15% SF. I add the salt at the first sign of trace and...

If still available, I'll take the WSP Tomato and the DayStar Ahoy Matey!

I just got my mini-column molds last week from BB! Thanks for the questions as I had some of the same :) An additional thought/question: I was thinking that I would need to use them in a loaf fairly quickly. Like I wouldn't want to make them a week in advance because they would be harder than...

One of the things I love about Katie Carson is that she is so open to sharing her sources for stuff! Here's a video where she gives several links to her embed molds: I've actually bought many silicon molds from her links and they are easy to use and adorable!

Personally, I'd use the terrible FOs that you hate. Sometimes those end up being among my favorites after cure and if not, someone will like them!

I love watching Katie Carson's videos because she's just so fun and wholesome! I'm not a big fan of her swirls (I prefer Ione's more delicate swirls for Eve's Garden Soaps), but I like seeing her use micas from her vast supply and I appreciate that she gives the names and suppliers of said...

I just ordered some from NS yesterday and the info says it can be mixed with other colors to provide glow. https://nurturesoap.com/products/glow-in-the-dark-pigment?_pos=1&_sid=ab14ec564&_ss=r

I totally agree. Your pull-through soaps are amazing!!

I'm confused. Are you selling your soap?
