So glad you are alright. Sorry that your feet got it. I hope they heal quickly. We all need to be cautious when messing with lye. I always wear long sleeves, apron and everything else I can think of. I know my husband thinks I look silly but trying to save myself from burns.

Dibbles, You are so lucky to fall into those oils. I love all of them you acquired. Meadow Foam especially. What fun you will have.

This is interesting Zany. I will have to look into this further on % quantities, the little molds (which I have lots of) and storing. Thank you for the suggestion.

Fresh catnip is horrible. A skunky smell to it. I never understood what cats like about it but they go crazy and act crazy with it. My curiosity got the best of me with the essential oil smell. If you put that in a bug spray, watch out for cats coming around. Just teasing.

Thank you for your thoughts on this Dee Anna.

Irish Lass, I am curious on what the Catnip Essential Oil smells like. I know how fresh cut catnip and dried catnip smells. I am sure there is a difference in the Canadian herb versus local wild catnip.

After use of my shower bar recipe, when the small batch is used up, I need to re-do my recipe to give me more moisturizing on my skin. Wondering if I can re-melt my few bars and redo them. Any thoughts?

I love the marble look. Accident or not it is beautiful.

Beautiful soaps! I love the lavender and white.

I use 99% Isopropyl Alcohol that I order from my pharmacy. Not all pharmacy's can get it. Walgreens was a no win. Medicap could get it in. I decided to try the 99% since I had a bottle of it when I was trying to use the Gel nail polish system with the LED light. It helped so well, I bought...

Zany, Sent you a PM

I did just use all e-wax. All you can do is try different ways until you come on something you really like. I was looking at the emulsifying factor in the shower. I know where you are coming from on be antsy. All of us that has been bitten by the soapy bug and anything related to new things...

Beautiful colors and swirl. Wish I had your talent.

PrimDawg, Been out working on the farm so sorry. DeeAnna answered your question very well on the emulsifier.

I use it 100% when I do use it in a batch of soap. Helps with bubbles

I like the round soap and the swirls are great

Happy Easter! Have a wonderful weekend everyone

I love these for a quick moisturizer after my shower. Just rub your skin while wet and towel off. Made with Cocoa Butter, Coconut Oil, Emulsifying Wax, Meadow Foam Oil, Argan Oil, Mango Butter and Essential Oil. I am calling this Lavender Dream's using Lavender 40/42 and Ylang Ylang.

These are so beautiful!
