Welcome. BrambleBerry and wholesalesuppliesplus. Try to get coconut oil and lard locally.

Seemed to work rather well for my Lavender-Orange-Patchouli Calendula bars. Treated as prescribed 7 days ago.

Coconut Oil 20% Olive Oil Pomace 80% SF 5% While your soap is curing go onto Etsy and buy Hubby a Lanolin Lotion Stick. It'll heal those rough hands straightaway.

Sift ground oatmeal or coffee through a tea strainer or something similar.

Microwave works good at 80% power. Get a pair of heavy duty Rubber Gloves to pour the hot Pyrex and to wash it while hot.

Given that some EVOO is actually cheaper oils colored with Chlorophyll, perhaps that is why their soap is green? But wouldn't Lye make the Chlorophyll turn brown? Roy

Jojoba is much too expensive to waste in soap. Save it for a lotion

I use a Stainless Steel Milk Shake Cup. Write the weight of the empty cup on the container. Roy

Sweet Basil and Anise. Both are inexpensive.

The less you pay for olive oil the more likely it isn't.

I like to use Dry Malt Extract, provides lot of protein and maltose. Good for soaps that are too slippery. Great label appeal! add Milk - "Malted Goat Milk Soap" Just dissolve in some warm water and add at trace. for related posts click here

Appears to be melt and pour. "therapeutic" EO" is hard to prove otherwise. Certainly a better buy than Cor Silver Soap – Signature Size $120.00

I sell a lot of this: 2% Lavender Bramble Berry Fragrance .5% 15x Orange .5% Patchouli For a more "Hippy" smell try 2, 1/2, 1 High Quality Patchouli is expensive. Bramble Berry and Wholesale Supplies Plus sells a good Patch. Roy

Possibly the Olive Oil is actually mostly Soybean. Distilled water, Citric acid and ROE is what works for me.

I was thinking this would be a thread on Marriage

Spots like that are common in freshly poured Pine Tar soap. I bet these spots will eventually disappear or become less noticeable.

Colloidal Silver and lot of rubbing helps reducing scarring, IMO.

My Salty Mariner / Patchouli Blend is now "Patched Linen"
