I so relate to your little mishaps. When we made our first soap, we didn't have a stick blender... I actually whisked and whisked like my life depended upon it LOL. The trace was not too thick, but the soap turned out not too bad. Then, we were gifted a good blender and oh, we weren't prepared...

Thanks ever so much :) We are really loving CO soaps! heehee... that's a thought! :)

Hi everyone! My 11-year-old son and I are into soap making ... we have such a long way to go, but are having a lot of fun. We've been keeping things simple – we've made coconut oil soaps and used cooking oil soaps. A couple of months ago, we made this soap (recipe we found online): Olive oil...

Hi there! I'm Shirin and I'm a Singaporean based in Pakistan. I'm here on behalf of me and my 11-year-old son :) We both got into soap making when he had to take part in the local homeschooling community's Science Fest. He wanted to do something new ... after much brainstorming, he got very...
