That’s not right! I’m sorry.

It looks like Costco is a pretty good deal. Shipping with BA is up there.

Found this in my Costco. It’s an Oregon based co and I’m in Oregon so I don’t know if this is just a regional item.

I’ve had to pass on several of these “blended butters” because a lot of them contain almond oil which is an allergen for family and friends . I did use brambleberry avo butter when I first started but I prefer avo oil now. I think it’s just an upselling trick.

Me waiting for soap batter to setup enough to pipe.

I used it to mix up some soapy sugar scrubs!

Just an FYI coconut milk powders frequently have dairy milk by products like casseine in them. I’m allergic to dairy so this is a huge source of frustration for me. I’m allergic to casseine and whey proteins. Sneaky food manufacturers have caused me considerable pain and suffering. I just use...

I started using 2:1 at room temp and have been able to get some good swirls. 2.25 on water is almost too much for me.

I ordered them from Ali Express. Just search silicone stone molds. They are pretty floppy but pretty affordable.

I don’t gel either but I just got a real red mica from nurture soaps and in order to get real red you apparently have to gel.

You are kind of flying blind as to position. That makes unmolding and cutting super exciting.

I just put the recipe I wrote above into Soapmaker's Friend. I wanted to play around on it. It should be public. It is listed as Carolyne's Slow Moving Swirl Recipe. Feel free to use it!

Where were the passwords sent? I’m not finding mine. I may have missed my chance to vote anyway but in
