Probably not a good idea, but I like the way you think!

Can Red Palm Oil be used in place of Palm Oil? I wasn't able to find any Palm oil, so I brought Red Palm Oil. Is that a problem?

This is just what I'm looking for to make for Christmas, can you please post the recipes for the shaving soap? I'm also looking for PVC pipe to mold it in. I was at Home Depot and found some black 3" and 2". The 3" looks to big and the 2" looks to small. I think I need 2 1/2", don't even...

I plan on giving my soap to friends and family this coming Christmas. I do not plan on putting the ingredients on the wrapping. If they ask me what's in it, of course I'll tell them.It is a gift and I feel giving all that extra info on my 'label' is not necessary. Any thoughts on this, anyone?

At Goodwill this morning and found a really cool muffin tin. The tin had 6 pretty good size heart shaped molds, they were actually about the size of a regular bar of soap. I brought it. Now I'm wondering if I can buy some silicone spray and then spray them and pour my batter in and NOT have...

Yes, that is exactly what I saw, thanks! I thought it was packing material that had been re purposed material, but after googling it I see it isn't. Thanks Cellador, a lot.

Hey Green Dragon, I pretty much asked the same question. I have made my soap and it has now been sitting for about a week. I am excited to wrap them and get them ready for Christmas presents. But I have been told on here that they need to sit for at least 4 weeks. I really don't have to wrap...

So the bottom line is: doing the tongue test, if it doesn't Zap your tongue that means it ready to use/wrap/sale?

Welcome Hi KarenDK, I am a new as well, and your right, there is so much great information here, how could we ever mess up. I have not made any soap at all, but I am slowly getting tools and information and almost ready. I will post the results of my first batch when it's done. I hope to...
