    just got my order YAY!!

    i got that scent as well- i went for a light green and light gold swirl, and my colors morphed and i ended up with cream and a light orange (the morphing micas were NOT from nurture!) i used it at about 3%, after about 2 months it was almost undetectable if remaking it- i'd definitely go with...

    Worst fragrance

    i really disliked WSP witch's brew OOB. i used it in a batch to get rid of it and it smelled quite a bit better. i have a couple bottles from WSP that i got as samples that i just cant even get over the OOB smell- some garbage like "newborn kisses" or something, its powdery yucky sweet. :mad: i...

    I just can't Swirl!

    thats been my experience. in the dancing funnel challenge last year- the portion colored with activated charcoal was thickening much quicker than the other colors which stayed a really great consistency https://www.soapmakingforum.com/attachments/img_3970-jpg.31756/

    I just can't Swirl!

    this is a recipe i used for a challenge when i needed a lot of time to work with the batter without it thickening i really was more concerned with it being slow moving and not so much with what it would feel like after the challenge- i was very pleasantly surprised after the challenge to find...

    Batch #3. Adventures in a crock pot

    YASSS tallow! wait to determine if it feels moisturizing for it to have time to cure, it becomes milder with age for sure. and tallow is pretty delicious feeling on the skin i like the texture that activated charcoal adds to a bar- nice light exfoliation to make my HP a bit more fluid and easier...
