That was such a kind thing to say, thank you!

It will always react a little. The real challenge is dealing with the ambient humidity in your home. Especially in FL. That's the real enemy of bath bombs. In CA my girlfriend has no problems putting them out on top shelf under a fan and they're dry in 48hrs. If I did the same thing my bath bomb...

And cue the blush! I'm painfully shy in person so that made feel so much better about all my recent posts. Thank you <3

Sounds like it reacted in the jar which would explain why there wasn't a chemical reaction in the tub because it was already neutralized. The culprit is likely the EO. What you can do is add the EO to everything but the CA, mix well, and dry out on a baking sheet. If you live in humidity you'll...

Ah, yeah, it'll take it's sweet time. On average it takes my sourdough 10 - 14hrs to double on the first rise and around 2hrs once shaped for the second rise. On the second rise you can create a hot box by adding in moisture and heat. I do this by boiling water in a large mug for 4 minutes and...

Hobbies have been my anchor to sanity after I decided to go back to school. I had started this degree in 1997 and after life did a whole of interfering I'm back in 2021 to finish what a younger me started. It is perhaps, not the right degree for me. There have been a number of changes since my...

Being a sourdough parent can be a little nerve wracking in the early days but two things I've done that helped tremendously were to add pineapple juice to my new starter to create an acidic environment to help it fight off the baddies and use only 100% Rye. Sourdough *loves* Rye. My process is...

Thank you everyone for welcoming me to neighborhood. I'm so delighted to meet you all <3

Tried out the Stephenson Crystal Suspension Body Wash and it was so much better, also from 2019, so I'm not convinced age has to do with the smell. I guess I'm just not a big fan of amped up castile. This base had zero scent and was crystal clear (OBW has a yellow tint) and took well to the FOs...

I hadn't realized they'd worked for you before, that is so undermining. I forgot to ask, some Witch Hazel is made with water and others are in alcohol. Did you change brands recently? You can find alcohol based Witch Hazel but the ones I have in my house were mostly water. Lastly I read...

Do you have access to 91% or 70% rubbing alcohol? I had the best luck with 91% but 70% worked as well. However, even after drying under a fan and an indoor humidity level of 40% and then immediately shrinking wrapping I've never had a bath bomb that didn't get warts. I used three different...

... HELLO! In 2016 I made a major life change and moved from one coast to the other for love. That worked out well. However, being a stranger in a strange land I found myself doing some soul searching and after receiving an image of a super fancy and highly overpriced bath bomb belonging to a...

I'm coming out of my shy space to post my first question! This is a big moment for me, I've been lurkin for awhile now ;) To save on time I switched from a homemade body wash (modified SCM bubble bath recipe) to the Stephensons Organic Body Wash. It's the most appalling castile odor. I used to...

Hi Shari, Looking at the ingredients from WSP, wouldn't this just be rebranded Cera Bellina? CC Smooth & Creamy Lotion Bar Additive INCI: Polyglycerol-3 Beeswax Cera Bellina INCI: Polyglycerol-3 Beeswax I know there's a few other WSP and Lotioncrafter products that I've discovered to have...
