    Hard Water Issues

    I dont want to debate M&P being lye soap. There is some that's considered a cosmetic due to its ingredients. There is some that wasnt made with sodium Hydroxide in it. Regardless, I get a totally different feeling with CP than I do with M&P.

    Testing a few soft oils in 40%

    I have a question about the trisodium citrate. Why do you use it instead of sodium citrate? Does it help better than the sodium citrate with hard water?
