Great thanks!

Need advice. I am new to soap making. Only made few small batches so far. Still curing. 1st Batch I didn't add any fragrance and no color. But it had a smell that I didn't care for. After some reading I realized the smell could be the beef tallow I used. I bought my base oils from a local...

Thanks all. I'll get my husband to make me a mobile curing rack.

I live in Houston. I have a shed in the back yard which is water tight and has built in bookcases with shelves. I thought it could serve as soap curing room. However... I live in Houston...which gets very Very hot and humid in the summer. Will the temp affect the soaps curing? I know that a...

Thank you very much for the feedback. Your suggestions were about the very things I was wondering about. I've been tweaking this recipe for 2 days. My husband is like "how come you haven't made soap yet?!" it's not that easy when I'm new! Any way thanks!

I found a distributor in Houston. I called and they said yes they have it and yes I could pick it up. I'm waiting to hear back from the email I sent on pricing. I had went to the website of CR Lawrence and looked at their list of distributors and found one called D&F Distributing inc

I want to make mechanic soap with ground pumice. Where can I buy it local? I'm in Houston.

I am new to soap making....but I'm hooked! I am hoping to make soap this weekend and I would love to find some mica powder powder to experiment with. I know where to purchase online. But I wouldn't get it today obviously. And I know about the natural colorants. That is my last resort...

I definitely see your points. I'm gonna make a simple small recipe this evening. Thanks!

Aside from people's personal preferences regarding using soap with animal fat......considering only the qualities.... Which do you think has the best effects palm or beef tallow?

Makes sense. I'll do that. I always tend to want to overdo things. It shows in my abstract artwork...I can't just use a couple colors...nope. I gotta use them all. For that WOW factor. Sometimes that part of me is an idiot cause I could have already started on my soap days ago. Instead I've...

True. I'm a newbie obviously and indecisive and overly cautious. I need to just pick one and go with it. I suppose a beginners recipe is still the best way...no matter how complicated the artist in me wants to be. I taught myself to paint and have been doing so for years. Soap and candles are my...

Ok....here is 2 more variations...either of them look ok?

Can you see the pic of the calculator and tell me if it looks ok?

Thanks for all the tips!

You are probably right. Its the qualities that I'm trying to get the most of. These are the ingredients that I have to work with. (also lye and distilled water of course). I am looking for a recipe for a bar that is extra creamy and lots of lather and has that luxurious feel. What would you...

Can someone suggest a recipe or provide a link...that incorporates all of these ingredients? I do have the beginner recipes as well...I just wanted to put together a recipe to work on next that incorporates these ingredients for a creamy lots of lather moisturizing bar. Olive oil Coconut oil...
