I'm always looking at the ingredients in CP soaps, online, shops and farmers markets. I note that most are just 3 oils - olive coconut and Palm. I don't sell myself, but I'm always looking for that special bar, hard ,creamy bubbles, conditioning. I add castor to mine, because soap calc tells...

The batter looks quite thick when she swirled. I had the same problem when I did the spoon swirl with a batter that was too thin and I also think my layers were too thin in depth

I tried to crock pot it as soon as it went wrong. Just lots of small hard lumps in oil, got so fed up, I put it in a pot to cool. Next day it was the same, should have tried to do something with it, I suppose, but I didn't like the smell either so binned it!!

Same happened to me last week. So disappointing, not even mentioning the cost. Definitely will be doing small test next time when I use a new fragrence..

Yes they did come back, they said there should be no discolouring, but there was some. The soap totally riced though, so bad I had to throw it away. I used the frankincense fragrence. Can't say 100 that was the problem as I also added some dried milk. I also bought some EO, geranium, but it...

Love it! Nice colour on the base, was it just the clay that made this?

well, your right, it may have been something else, I'm making a batch tomorrow using the same recipe without any fragrence. I'm going to add the fragrence to some M&P and add some curles to a CP base - fragrence free!! there are good suppliers, bad suppliers and indifferent ones. If haven't...

I'll try and HP it tomorrow and stick blend like mad!! I had no idea that a different recipe would give different results with FO,s

I did try. Just looked like lake of oil with lumps of vomit floating about. I haven't soaped on a while, had all my colours ready for zebra swirl, I feel totally cheated!!!

Just had to throw out a batch of soap, which totally riced when using a new fragrence. Good thing I only did a small batch. This fragrence is advertised as being suitable for CP soap making, obviously they are not soap makers. Never again!! I will stick with the supplers that I know in...

Citrus oils are notorious for fading. Lemongrass holds well , but it's not a citrus!!

Hello. You will get hooked and spend lots of money !!

I think this range is new to gracefruits. I have used their regular fragrence with no problems. Their info does say 5% for soap though. I would get back to them and report that it doesn't come through in CP. Probably ok for MP and creams ect.

I've been looking for some EO,s for a while, right price and quality ect, I've not tried fresh as a supplier yet, I i ordered some EOs today. Will let you all know what the quality is like when they come, the prices are fab. Anyone know of a fragrence supplier in the UK who does Clinique...

Fine. Very fine !! Scratchy is ok for garden soap Like the idea of oatmeal in soap but don't intend to do a second batch, however it does have label appeal.

Yes, a bit too small for me too, and not so "attractive" as I would have liked. I'm based in UK, so if you find something, let me know! Just wish we had the same choice as they do in US.

I also copy the soap calc recipe and past into Evernote. I then take a photo and the add that the file in Evernote. As the weeks go on I add notes regarding the bubbles, smell ect. I love this programme, you can add tags so that you can search for any thing you've done. It has an app which...

Well I followed instructions and here is a disappointment Lol !! I learn more from my failures than my successes , this Taiwan swirl only looks good from the top. Didn't realise that inside it's rather dull. Looked at more info on soaping 101 and seen that she cuts it horizontally to show...

That looks much better than the one I have, and what a great idea to add on the wood. Lakeland here I come!!
