    Best colorant/FO/EO companies

    Hey guys! Generally I soap with natural colorants and essential oils, but I made a small order a while back and ordered some Micas/oxides and like 2 FO. I already order my lye from essential depot, but I am looking for a great company with a wide selection of colorants for CP/HP soap as well...

    What soapy mistake have you made today?

    Lol! I think it's funny because I got a hair in my water I was putting lye in, the lye completely dissolved the (organic) hair. But yes maybe a felted soap with the name "hair o the dog!" And a cigar and cognac smell...

    What soapy mistake have you made today?

    It was probably around 100* I use DW ice and by the time I was finished with her my water was around 80. But this of course had to happen when my vet was closed (luckily I have his cell). She is a lab and if you know labs they put their mouths in everything! She is doing better just very...

    What soapy mistake have you made today?

    She is doing well, just drooly, definitely a lesson for hubby, he didn't understand why I got "suited up" for soap making. And she is his baby. We had a long talk about dog safety and the reason I don't let them in the kitchen when I'm working. He assumed it was because of dog hair... I'm just...

    What soapy mistake have you made today?

    Not my mistake but, told my hubby that I was soaping and was mixing lye outside, he let my dog out who promptly took a lick of the lye water. Ugh called my vet who advised inducing vomiting with hydrogen peroxide...little girl is fine, but her tongue is well... We have a system now of "when...

    Ok so my inspiration was my coffee fanatic family and friends, a summertime drink we always have is a frappucino in our hands. So: Bottom layer is colored with cocoa powder and has coffee grinds in it for exfoliation it then has a glitter "mica" line to add that frozen effect. Next layer...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I cut one of my soaps today. Turned out...not so great...purple and pink were too close in color:( but it smells wonderful! Still waiting to unmold my "inspire me" thread soap. Very hopeful there. And made a clove and cedarwood men's soap that smells divine...and looks completely edible...

    Egg protein is really just a super fancy way of saying "egg" Kiwi creates an nice off white, it is a really nice base and it blends very well into a nice froth. I use it for watermelon soap because of the lightness it retains.

    Zolveria, I'll give this a shot. How about a column swirl with an earthy theme inspired by your home. So if it's really lush and green show us that or if it's desert show us that. Anything can be your inspiration there. Because I can't smell it you can choose the FO or EO. I'm not really...
