    Lard, Goat Milk, Sorbitol, Sodium Gluconate and Sodium Lactate

    I’m following along on your journey to breast milk soap. My daughter and her freezer are overflowing (haha) with breast milk. She asked me to make soap for her. I’m reading everything I can find about it to start.

    Just wanna share my dog Potato

    A few years ago I adopted a dog that had come from a puppy mill that was shut down. She had never been out of her little 2’ square cage with only the wire to walk on, never even touched the ground, or grass! Potato is going to bring you so much joy, love, and comfort! Congratulations on finding...

    Haha! I can relate! Right now I am in the fancy guitar room at Guitar Center in Hollywood, reading the Soap Making Forum, while my musician husband plays and…what’s this? Yes, that sure is a beautiful guitar……oh, it’s coming home with us? He is also very supportive of my soaping, interested but...

    Would you use a website dedicated to cataloguing fragrance dupes?

    Coincidence!! I am anxiously awaiting my Crafters Choice Angel FO. (It won’t be here till Wednesday). I hope it’s a close match! I absolutely don’t need more FO, but when I saw Angel I had to try it. Yes, I would use a website like this 😃

    Breast Milk Soap Experiment

    @Momstop your soap looks lovely. I met a soaper last week, her baby was with her at a street market, and yes, she makes breast-milk soap. She gave me a sample but I have to say, I’m a little weirded out by it. Have not tried it yet. Two of my daughters are breastfeeding babies right now and have...

    Coronavirus

    At least you got to go on your trip. Sounds like we are on the same schedule. I got back late last Wednesday night, now on day six of self-isolating/stay-at-home mandate. All good here too.

    Coronavirus

    Hello Dahlia, I wondered if you were able to make your trip? I was in Thailand for three weeks and my flights were not affected but European countries were. Also travelers who had planned to stay longer in Thailand were cutting their trips short and trying to get home sooner. I got home the day...

    Zany's no slime castile

    So, I wanted to learn from this batch, and I did. Next time I can’t wait a whole week to cut it! It was hard! But it all turned out okay

    Zany's no slime castile

    Thank you for sharing your recipe @Zany_in_CO I will make it again soon and SB longer to see if that makes a difference. I had been thinking that this was to be a learning experience, I was going to learn about re-batching. Not this time! Patience. Thanks to @MGM for posting her results first-...

    Zany's no slime castile

    Hello! I also made this for the first time on Friday, and when I checked it Saturday, I had the same result. You gave a perfect description-like Brie cheese. I will check it later when I get home today. I’m interested in hearing how yours turns out

    December 2019 Un-Challenge - New to You

    Hello! May I ask what you use to cut your soap into bars? They are so nicely even. I’ve always used a knife but it comes out so lopsided. I ordered a soap cutter from BB, unfortunately, it cuts horizontally, I just want to cut straight down through my loaf, nothing fancy.

    Silk Powder

    I am using silk peptide powder today and also didn’t find much info on how much to use, but I found this recipe-http://www.soap-making-essentials.com/silk-soap-recipe.html It uses 18g for 900g of oils. I started weighing that out and it is a lot! I went with 5g for my 958g of oils. I have made...
