    New to here/new to soap!

    Photos? Not currently. I used up all my Aleppo soaps and I'm waiting on an order of Laurel Berry oil to come in. You can order on line a really nice one to try first and see if you like it. First pic is of my castile soap (I keep it upside-down on soap holders, because the sprial helps to drain...

    New to here/new to soap!

    Have you ever heard "wearing your laurels"? Or other references such as: "nobel laureate". The Greeks crowned Olympic champions with a wreath of Laurel leaves. History is rife with references to the Laurel tree. It's considered antiseptic, a symbol of strength and achievement and is also NOT an...

    New to here/new to soap!

    I'm not sure. I really haven't experimented much with colours. I'm pretty basic regarding my soaps. I use molds for interest factor. Tiny paw prints and car shapes, and hearts for little kids. Medium for teens and adults. And then I have a few fairly large for big guys. All are silicone except...

    Aleppo Soap is made with olive oil and laurel berry oil and lye. It's an ancient soap recipe from the Turkish regions. I have super sensitive skin and Aleppo soap helps so much. Olive oil based soaps are not for everyone because: Low suds/bubbles Feels 'slimey' Melts quickly Takes 8-12 months...

    New to here/new to soap!

    Welcome! I soap in very tiny kitchen too! I solved the issue of space for curing/drying my soaps by purchasing stackable cookie racks, lining racks with needlepoint plastic, and plugging in a very small fan (w/extension cord)to move the air. Bottom racks have my Castile and Aleppo soaps on them...

    Coronavirus

    I agree with everyone who is taking this Pandemic very seriously, and I am praying for all the people who have been affected by it too (which is EVERYONE). My lifestyle didn't change much because I have been living how others are now being forced to. I'm not a very social person and I have had...

    Looking for cupcake molds

    I have the "Gem" moulds too! I made a chocolate latte scrubby soap and they looked just like brownies! Good for gardeners and calloused feet. The dark colour helped to hide how grubby hands were.

    Looking for cupcake molds

    I'm autistic and absolutely love the texture/feel of SilikoMart moulds. Some of them are a bit tricky to fill and unmould, however, the effort is worth it. What type did you get? I downloaded the catalogue then looked on Amazon and eBay to save money. Some chef sites have them in clearance. The...

    What went wrong? Avert your eyes....

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Floating soap by Ivory was a "MISTAKE" and it became a marketing genius! Hang in there. I think it's beautiful how it is.

    Looking for cupcake molds

    SilkoMart makes beautiful silicone molds for haut couture chefs. I make soap on a limited small scale. These moulds are pricey, well made, exceptional detail. Factory is in Italy. My soaps are usually unscented/ uncoloured. I use visual and tactical appeal to encourage their use, especially for...
