All are amazing but the top one is off the hook!

Thanks for posting, will have to look to your suggestions to see if they offer some help for my wife. We are in our early 50s and she has had arthritis in her hands for about 10 years now. She hates taking drugs so mostly we try home or natural treatments. We found one thing that has provided a...

Nice bars Likeablelady! I like the colors, as you can see from the color of my bar I am still working out dealing with FOs "that may discolor" :). Anyway thank you for letting me squat in your thread with a question. KristaY thank you for the input, I appreciate it!

Made my first salt bars a couple of weeks ago and this has grown on the tops of the bars. Kind of a sticky powder texture. Is it ash that is just discolored by the FO?

Very nice! Now the hard part starts, at least for me it is. That 4 week wait!

First ever salt bars are in the mold and curing. Been in the mold for 3 hours, still soft and measuring about 98 degrees.

Oh boy, summer soaps, winter soaps... Different recipes, colors and scents to make them stink pretty.... Seems I have more work to do than I thought. :) Thank you all again! I am sure with my new found guidance there will be an abundance of test batches as I work to get this figured out...

I appreciate the input from all! I printed this recipe out on SoapCalc last week and have since been following advise found on this forum to learn more about the fatty acid profiles. As I was typing the beginning of this thread I was thinking that the Coconut may be a bit high. That seems to...

Hello all! I am seeking your feedback on my recipe below. Your thoughts on the bar qualities this will produce or any tweaks you would suggest would be greatly appreciated. I am attempting to make a conditioning bar that will help ease the winter dry skin blues. Thanks in advance for your...

Amazing!

Finished a box to store my cured soap in. Made it out of Ash, my son's girl friend drew the tree on the lid with a sharpie and we rubbed it down with Coconut oil to bring out the grain. Very happy with how it came out. :)

Ohhh I have stumbled into that trap .. but I justify it as not only are we getting cool soap but it's entertainment as well. :)

Hello from central Tennessee. First I would like to offer my thanks to the self-described “Enablers” on this site. Your collective knowledge has made this adventure an enjoyable one to say the least. About 5 months ago my wife purchased me a bar of soap from a flea market and I truly enjoyed it...
