That much palm oil may move very quickly on you. I personally don't like palm it can be a real pain. I would definitely soap warm so you don't get stearic spots or false trace.

Those types of stores usally carry the 3.5oz size. Amazon has it available on prime with 2 day shipping.

Thicker, harder plastic seems to be less staticy, ime. You didn't say what kind of cup you are using, if it is a disposable or other flimsy plastic you could try a very rigid plastic.

Leaves from fragrance buddy is great. Apple and pine perfect

For sure and it might look a bit different than without. Clumpyish

Stearic is fine in hp. You could likely do up to the 7% with little issues. The stearic will quickly react with the lye solution.

Cp or hp?

I have made solid conditioner before and used it directly after it was cooled completely. I personally would rather use liquid conditioner. Did you use a swift recipe?

Ok also great for removing make up

Most water in oil emulsions are cold creams

Cinnamon or chamomile powder can be used instead of cocoa powder. I have dark hair and don't use any. They are not need just filler and colorant.

No no, not at all. I just didn't want to seem as though I was calling someone else's work bad. Especially when I haven't tried it. I don't think clay would be great on it's own. Arrowroot alone will work fine though. I use clay at no more than 25% any more than that I have found it absorbs too...

I wouldn't use it. I don't know if it is bad but I don't know why bs is in it. For odor control? If your hair smells it should be washed. When I use dry shampoo i sprinkle it on my roots, leave it and then rub it in. Baking soda is probably going to be abrasive to the scalp. YMMV.

This ^^^ I have done this with 20% roae hydrosol after the cook. It did take 4 months to cure but it retained a beautiful soft natural rose scent. For lotions use as any % of the water.

I wouldn't put baking soda on your scalp. Hair does not like alkaline. I have found arrowroot, rice, kaolin even tapioca to be better than corn starch. I conditioner wash and i only wash my hair once a week. I use dry shampoo once maybe twice a week. I love dry shampoo i used to use some...

Just keep an eye on it cold creams tend to slowly weep water over time.

I have found water in oil emulsions very difficult to master. I have yet to find an emulsion system like ewax that will keep my cold creams from seperating. It is best to work off the HLB values. Good luck.

Have you looked into the HLB values and method of emulsifying?

Good to know, i don't have any wholefoods close to me unfortunately. I heard there is supposed to be one going in about an hour away.

I have used frozen pumpkin on place of all liquid for a small batch. It was very difficult to know if all the lye dissolved so I strained it. The batch turned out great. But if you are using a discoloring fo the pumpkin color won't show.
