Yes. 😁

I got hooked by all the pretty YT soap vids, but the quality is what sealed the deal for me. Also, being able to use minimal fragrance. My mother hates most fragrances, I like a lot of them but need much less than what's used in mass produced goods, and then the sensitive skin issue! Which has...

Excellent! Also, not drying. What I learned from this soap and its "sister" - made with the same formula, on the same night, but with a fragrance my youngest liked - is that I have to go easy on FOs. Only 3% gave me a hell of a migraine. Thankfully it cured down to a tolerable level, and now I...

I made this Halloween night last year, and just put the last bar in my shower. The scent is Dragon Moon from NS, colors chosen by my eldest. I didn't have a sifter for my eco glitter at that time, so it's more than the dusting I wanted. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I've now been making soap for 2 years and am still...

Coffee is magic. Soap is magic. Therefore coffee soap is super magic. 😁

About 15ish years ago "exploding" glass measuring & baking dishes were in the news. That's all I need to know to be unwilling to trust glass with lye. Theoretically, glass should be fine. In reality, it is only fine until it is not, and there's no reliable warning sign to tell us when it needs...

I found some adorable little stainless steel milk frothing pitchers on Amazon and Webstaurant supply store. I lack the patience to froth milk when I'm not getting paid for it, but they're perfect lye mixing containers. I'm loving the handles and pour spouts, it seems like they reduce the risk of...

... and now I really want to find a fur-free spot to test drop my soap and see what happens. 🤔

My husband thought he was one of those guys but then I made a couple floral ones for the kids. He decided he liked them and I haven't had any problems since. One of his work buddies asked if I could make a lavender lemon soap, but he's a "manly man" so he asked quietly. They work on an assembly...

All. Of. This. And I speak from some very unpleasant personal experiences when I say your own sense of smell is probably messing with you. If there was genuinely something wrong with your soap there would be more signs and you wouldn't be the only one who notices. I've had this experience with...

Maybe send an email asking when they expect to have them restocked & consider if you can wait that long? Their molds look amazing & I'm looking forward to the day I can justify the cost.

Definitely need a syndet bar. But shampoo isn't going to be enough to care for a double coat. There's a YouTuber who is a pet groomer who films her work. I think she's The Girl With the Dogs or something like that. With a double coat it's the grooming tools that are key & it's really important...

Wait... castor thickens the shaft? Oh hell no, my strands are heavy enough already. 😳

Wow, that "soapmaker" has got PROBLEMS. 😱🤢🥴😂🤣

Wow, really? I've been planning an oil for my dry & irritable scalp, maybe w/ some CBD for migraines. Now I'm extra glad I've got castor on hand! I do love it for soap, too. My mother is Team Moar Bubbles but still wants it to be super gentle & mild. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I have a guinea pig & buy 10lb boxes of hay for him, then store my soap in the emptied & dusted out boxes. They're very sturdy & I use those uncoated paper treat bags w/ sticker labels for wrapping... for now. If I start selling I'll probably do something different. (And fyi half my family is...

We have 3 dogs, one who leaves tumblefluffs everywhere, and me. I have a ton of heavy, coarse hair & my bum thyroid means I shed a lot. While soaping I have to tie it up in a kerchief because hair nets are a joke. I've found a solution for hair-free soap suring that appears to be working so far...

I love EOs but some are dangerous, unpleasant on my skin, or out of my price range. I love real sandalwood, but it's expensive and endangered, so I use FOs. I love mint, but it's no good on my skin, so FO to the rescue! But I also have an unnecessarily good sense of smell, allergies, & chronic...

Huh. I used that FO once & called it "Strugglemint" b/c it didn't want to trace at all. Imagine salt bars refusing to trace, it was bizarre. 😂 I thought the scent was okay, but I've since decided I like BB's Moroccan Mint much better.

I'm hesitant to point out the shady nature of American meat industries, but I feel like it's relevant. My experience in the restaurant industry is why I don't buy or use processed lard or tallow in food or soap, no matter the price. If I haven't bought it fresh from the butcher and smelled it...
