This soap that I didn't like...the one that turned brown? A couple soaps were cut real thick and I wanted to cut them in half. Check it out. Why did it do this?

I know what OOB means...means before you use that scent to make soap. But what does it stand for?

I just got a bunch new fragrances in the mail. I'm using my co-workers as guinea pigs... I mean "soap testers" . and I want them to give me an opinion on the new scents, but I don't want to take all the bottles to work. I could probably put a little on a cotton ball and put in a little zip lock...

Last night I was putting together a recipe and I started but hesitated because i am now unsure. Can someone please look at this and tell me if anything is wrong? SF 7% Lye concentration 33% citric acid 2% plus 9.36g extra lye to compensate. Sugar 1.5 tablespoons see pic for recipe...

I'm new so I'm constantly doubting my recipe and needing to run it through calculator. I decided to keep it in the room but covered. I'd rather have it available.

Thanks for the info! By the way, I was thinking about placing an order and I saw a place for discount coupon codes....are there any "grand opening attract new customers" type coupons now? ..... Just checking, one never knows.

Yeah...I think keeping it away is probably best. Better safe than sorry.

I'm in the middle of "Operation Cleanup". I need to find a good place to put my laptop within easy reach but safe from oils and such. My work space is two long tables that sort of form an L. I'm gonna put my laptop at one end, the furthest from my soaping area. I don't want to keep it in the...

Has anyone ever purchased from discountsoapsupplies.com? The prices seem reasonable, but I think the shipping is not appropriate. I created a cart with 38 items and the shipping was like $11. And I created a different cart with only a mica sample less than a pound in weight and the shipping was...

I want to sample a different number of additives that I have not yet tried. I want to find a source where I can purchase a very small amount of a number of items. I want to get it all from one place. Like the himyla. Pink salt, coconut milk powder, soy milk powder, yogurt powder, goat milk...

I didn't pay much for it and that should have been my first clue! Oh...I want to try some tussah silk. Can someone recommend a cheap source ? Good quality?

Here is a pic of the back of the bottle.

Has anyone used this in cold process? Found it in Walgreens on sale. Figured worth a try. And how much PPO?

Using this recipe: lye concentration 30% 500 grams oil weight Olive 35% lard 20% coconut oil 25% castor 10% cocoa butter 10% then citric acid 10g plus adding 6.24g of extra lye to compensate Sodium lactate 10g i add the citric acid to the water before I add the lye. then I add the sodium...

Yeah I love it! I was using this homemade rack. Now I get to use this! I was spending half my time lately making racks. I guess it's supposed to be a paper sorter. Also it's on wheels.

Well, I went and got it. It was definitely worth it! The shelves are adjustable, the shelves are the kind that snap on. The frame is wire but the shelves themselves are plastic. S 25 shelves. For 20 bucks definitely a good deal. The only thing that I might have done differently had I had a...

a lady posted an ad on craigslist for this organizing shelves for $20. what do you think it'd work out as a drying rack? thinking about getting it... any problems using this?

Does anyone have any experience with peak fragrance oil raspberry truffle? I went to the fragrance oil review spreadsheet and there is an entry for this scent, but in the discoloration column it has a number instead of any other information that might be helpful. And I went to the peak...

Maybe I'll use some abstract ideas to. "Paint" soap. I know not to make the mica too thick. I'd probably just use enough to give the tops some interesting effects.

No not a glass dish. Glad peel and stick and a shoebox top. Here's the pics from after the cut. The colors are almost brown. I don't hate it...But I have some ideas...I've done some painting before I started soap. I'm wondering how would they look with some "painting". Make tiny amount of slow...
