Add vitamin E if you want to make scars fade.

My question is why anyone would want to use butter or ghee to make soap when there are so many other great vegan oils to use. Why use animal products? My soap is the most wonderful soap and I never use animal products. No need to. Also why use FO when you have a bounty of wonderful real healthy...

Why not instead experiment with making CP soap and mix different oils?

I have never worked with percentages in my soap recipes. I work with oz and use my same never fail recipe which uses olive, coconut, palm, crisco, coco butter, shea butter and beeswax. It's a great recipe and I never super fat, add odd oils, pour at low temps or add mica or dyes to my soap...

Where do you get the tools to make soap like this, It's amazing. What do you use for colors? I also like the soap cutter.

Very nice work.

Is this CP soap?

Your soaps are lovely with color. I also make a mocha chocolate mint soap that smells so good people want to eat it. Is the yellow soap a CP or M and P?

In my recipe which calls for 86 oz of oils, 12 oz of lye mixed with 32 oz water, I use 4 full oz of EO. Never any less.

You can add orris root powder to your soap and it fixes the scent of your EO so it doesn't fade. My pink grapefruit soap I made last year still smells as fresh as it did when I made it and normally citrus scents are the first to lose their scents. Add it to your EO before you heat it and then to...

Never had a problem. I use all kinds of silicone molds and leave the soap in 18-24 hours. Perhaps it's your recipe.

EO's last for more than a year and still smell wonderful.

Been making soap for 25 years and I guess I'm a purist. .I've never had even one issue using EO. I find the scent is so much better and doesn't discolor my soap. Different EO's do wonders for skin conditions and other ailments. I've never had a complaint from anyone about skin issues. They just...

How much of each ingredient do you put into your lotion?

Why do you use FO when EO is so much better?

I've been using Avery for years. I use stick on labels that are round. I design my own labels and change the design if I change the scents. So easy and quick. I buy blank labels on Ebay since they're cheaper than Avery and they work fine. Then I wrap in tissue paper and use label to seal the...

I mix my lye water solution for each individual batch and use it as soon as it cools to 120. I never premix it or leave it around. I wonder how you would use a cold batch of lye water when soap requires a hot mixture to mix with hot oils? How do you reheat it or do you use it cold?
