    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I sat around and beveled some soaps today. First time doing so and the edges are so wobbly! How long after unmolding do you guys wait before you bevel (if you do)? I noticed that the slightly harder bars were easier to handle as I could control the pressure easier. Also, what do all you...

    Hello from sunny Singapore!

    Hi there, I've been a candlemaker for years and have been wanting to try soap making for years but due to the lye import regulations only recently managed to try out making CP soap at a studio lately. It was as fun as I expected and I've already signed up for a liquid CP class as well as...
