I agree... I am pretty sure now it is M&P/syndet bars. I do think many people want to learn how to make CP soap but are not aware that you can only use lye in an approved/licensed establishment in Singapore and this is why they word their ads as such. YES! Exactly!! I did tell my friend about...

Thank you ❤️ I love it when you jump in with the science! 😊

🤣😂🤣 That really bugged me too! 🤪 I think they do use a base and most likely will market it to those who graduate from their class. The sort of decorations they are teaching are quite elaborate (mille feuille and other delicate pastry like soap) that are more of the m&p variety than CP. I...

Thank you so much! Right? I was so stumped! Thank you so much for responding :)

That's so special! So sweet of your son.

Hi every buddy, I wasn’t sure where to post this, so please bear with me. My friend in Singapore is considering taking up a soap making class. She found a course that, to my knowledge, only taught Melt & Pour Soap techniques. [Really, really gorgeous stuff though!] They told me the last time I...

Love milky white soaps!!! they look really pretty :)

Hi! I made soap coloured with red sandalwood. It was not a very strong colour — just a dusky pink. I am trying out infusions — just received Himalayan rhubarb! @ackosel please share since we're going down the same road :)

I really wanted him to have a serious hobby [other than gaming!!!] and I love the research, so this has been so much fun for us. I would love to make Zany's Palm Olive, but it is hard to get any palm oil at all here. I know the factories use it for food etc., but it is not sold for regular...

I've tried ZNSC with 100% olive oil ... It unmoulded well and wasn't slimy, but I have to admit... I would rather add some coconut oil and caster oil to the mix. I love a good lather! My next project :)

Thank you so much for your input. I don't really dare tweak recipes without consultation because of my lack of experience, so I really appreciate all the advice! Definitely sticking with distilled water now :)

Oh… paprika and turmeric sound exciting!

So today, it’s olive oil and jars … I have ordered annatto, alkanet, calendula and Himalayan rhubarb and hope to infuse the oil for colours :) Any other suggestions for colouring soap naturally?

They look beautiful! I love a white soap! (Made one by accident and haven’t been able to replicate it 🤣)

Thank you so much! ❤️ I have much to learn! It does get awfully dry here in winter. I’ll amend the amounts.

Hi every buddy! My son and I have been practising :) We have made 1-, 2- and 3-oil soaps and now that we have some palm kernel oil, we'd like to attempt a 4-oil soap. This is our proposed recipe (soapcalc doc attached): Olive oil (EVOO) - 60% Coconut oil - 20% Palm kernel oil - 15% Castor oil...

Hi, Meg! Zany is no longer on this forum, I believe. Do start a new post to get an answer :)

That is really so pretty! I think you smashed it with the colours and the elaborate mirror!

I scored some palm kernel oil!!! Some oils and butters are a little hard to come by here, so I am really happy! I'm not sure what sort of soap to make yet, but I am excited!

Congratulations!!! ❤️
