Welcome to the forum. Lots of helpful people here. Your English is great.

Made my soap yesterday and will unmold today. Should be able to cut it today also. 🤞🏻

Thank you!

@AliOop which DIY BB recipe do you use? Is it the Bubble Scrub Body Bar or is there a recipe that goes in a jar? I like the idea of no jar and I make a dupe of the Lush scrubby bar already. Just wondering if there’s something I may like more. 😉

That is brilliant! I will give it a try. Thanks!

I get a box with frozen food every 6 months or so, it is just a cardboard box with pieces of 1/2” styrofoam on each side, top and bottom. I have repurposed it to gel soap. I generally use a heating pad for 2-3 hours, turn it off and leave it alone overnight. My loaves always unmold cleanly...

I completely agree about SCM. I have no chemistry background, I took earth science in HS and geology in college. 😉 SCM was really overwhelming. I still pay $3 a month because I do use the site for reference. My brain is just unable to retain much. I thought about maybe taking a chemistry or...

@MomInWA, I agree with what @Misschief said. There’s a lot to learn if you try making your own formulas but there are recipes out there that are good. Marie at Humblebee and Me has some great free recipes and I’m experimenting with the DIY B&B lotion base concentrate recipe (available on Etsy)...

Beautiful soap! Really impressive.

@dibbles I LOVE this soap design. The goblet is perfect with the lines in the black. I know it’s not what you wanted, and I have certainly have had those soaping sessions where everything seems to go wrong. I think you got it exactly right even if it was in a roundabout way. ❤️

And now that song is stuck in my head.. crack that whip 🎶 🤪

Glad you are happy with it! I carry on a constant conversation with myself, the cats and occasionally my husband. 🤪

There are a lot of really good recipes shared on this forum. I see you are from Turkey so I’m not sure what you have readily available or what your preferences are. My favorite recipe is 75% lard, 20% coconut oil and 5% castor oil. Sometimes I use 10-20% olive oil to replace some of the lard. I...

Great job!

That leaf is beautiful! I really want to ask how you did it but then I will want to make them and I have WAY too many hobbies already. 😂

It is. We love it here.

@LynetteO, when you said you are in the PNW I looked at your location. I’m just up the road in Sandpoint. Nice to meet a neighbor! To get back on topic, @ewhitake, sorry about second batch, I also vote for letting the soap cure for a long time. Nothing to lose, right? I made several batches of...

I’m so sorry you had to dump the batch. Fragrance is often an issue for me. I can use some EO’s but not all. Thankfully we have a room in our shop where I can cure soap as even the EO’s I can tolerate are too much while curing. Scent can definitely make some people feel unwell.

Welcome!
