I did respect that, but the soaps weren't very finished looking, not quite rustic either. it just looked kind of messy just piles of soap that just came out of the mold piled super high. didn't look very inviting.....

how cool! do you burn them? sorry for the question...I've never seen them before...

to the OP, I personally don't like that comparing yourself to BBW approach. if someone approached me and said that my immediate response would be "who do you think you are?", and be turned off with your approach. I don't sell, but I frequent markets (craft and farmers). below is the approach...

haha. good for the Lady! I can never confront people like that....I always come off as witchy. and btw - I was at a show and saw a vendor with ALL their soaps in loaves and "made fresh". they said I would have to buy the soap and leave it for 6 weeks before using. i didn't like that way...

can you post a picture of your aroma rocks? I'm curious to see what they look like......

I've done one with lemongrass, blood orange and patch, and another one peppermint, sweet basil, patch. I'm about to do one peppermint, rosemary and patch. I like using patch as the base note. I'd love to use vetivert, but it's SOOO expensive!

say "thank you for the compliment, and everyone seems to be curious about this product (meaning you're not the first nosey person to be asking me about this), but what goes into my soaps are proprietary information that I would not like to share." the million dollar buy-in would work too. haha

how fun! interested to see swirly results!

Thanks everyone for the nice comments! I will have to try it again and not have it overheat... maybe find some other spice EO to swap for the cinnamon. @CaraBou, I was living in Barbados, and moved back to Toronto, Ontario. :)

omg. I'm so glad someone responded!!! I'm glad it's not just me!!! I wonder what the secret is to stop the oil slick....

ooh! good luck with that one! I saw it, but petals are not my thing.....

which soap challenge?!? I cut my soap...planning my next soap.... I have corn silk, and will be adding it to my next soap. not sure what else to add. maybe pumpkin?

I moved countries back in late June, and finally have soap molds and made my first soap the other day. I tried to replicate this http://www.soapmakingforum.com/showthread.php?t=41926&highlight=africa and ended up with this..... overheated a little, but not too bad for not soaping after...

So, I've done two soaps with two different cinnamon EOs (same recipe, same method), and both soaps are leaky. whereas my other soaps have no such issue. I used 1% cinnamon EO. has anyone else noticed this problem?

sounds fun!! now time to start posting! lol

how frustrating! but, the soaps look amazing despite all of your troubles! I would have yelled at people to leave me alone. LOL

wow! amazing soap!!! great swirl! I see the faces too - kind of like a mask of sorts. absolutely beautiful. can't wait for the video.

sorry for your loss Relle.

liberty naturals have the best price that I've found. I usually get it from NDA b/c I'm in Canada, so shipping isn't as bad for me, but Liberty Naturals looks much cheaper

a 100% CO one for dishes, and another one with softer oils (can't remember the recipe). my soap is gelling already! this cpop business moves fast! now watching it like a hawk so it doesn't overheat...
