I definitely need to hear about watermelon juice soap :) Thank you!

Hi - I see the lye is flakes not beads - have you used it yet - and how does it dissolve? Thanks!

@amd can i clarify - for the salt bar you just "rediscovered" you used 50:50 Cider Vinegar and Coconut milk to dissolve the NaOH? In any particular order? Regarding Coconut milk, can I use the kind you find in the dairy section as long as it is unsweetened and unflavored or only the kind in...

Hi all I made two batches of salt bars this weekend, and the same thing happened to both: here is the recipe: 80% CO / 20% AVO / 20% SF / 31% Lye Concentration / 1 tsp activated charcoal ppo / NaCl at 75% in one batch, 100% in second. I used table salt. In both instances, I added the...

Thank you all for your super insight!

I have recently learned (to my chagrin) that many things that are called " XXXX butter" are not necessarily 100% XXXX, but rather have other oils added to replicate a butter-like texture. I learned this from an older post on this forum which advised readers that many so-called butters were in...

Hi Carolyn - I would be SUPER interested in this as I felt and am learning to spin! Thank you! Clarice

I think i got the WRONG indigo for sure. but DANG, I love blue! I will let you know if a NON-INDIGO batch goes well. Harumph. Hate it when i get in my own way! Happens all the time!

Thank you @DeeAnna I THINK I know my issue - I got some indigo dye - Jacquard that I think is causing all my issues. Upon closer reading of the packet - it is a synthetic dye and is meant to be used with a reagent - I have a sneaking suspicion this is messing with my lye and wreaking havoc AND...

Also - hair care - I have started using in some pomades and love it. Also - in leave-on night oil before bed - it sinks in beautifully and my skin feels great

Hi all is there a way to confirm that I have mixed my master batch lye (1:1) at the correct concentration? I am 99% certain I made it correctly, but have a nagging doubt, as I just had another weird experience with a salt bar. Thank you in advance for your help. Clarice
