I am hoping it will..and that the unnatural green of my soap will fade..keeping my fingers crossed

I used fine sea salt from the grocery store..nothing fancy..it smells good, doesn't look too bad..just oozy..we'll see what happens after a few days..I still have hope for those..the soap..not so much..lol

What an awful weekend..my salt bars are oozing..and my soap(although it smells amazing) has turned from a beautiful 'seafoam' green to a not so beautiful vomit green..errrr! Well played soap gods..well played!

I'm still pretty new to soap making..been at it about 8 months. I haven't read all the posts on this thread..So..has anyone used oils from Wellington? They have some I would really like to try..

I was browsing our 1 of 2 craft stores and wondered into the cake decorating section. I stumbled upon rows and rows of new things I can use for my soap! I gotta say I was like a crack addict that just scored a major hit!! LOL Not to make light of a serious problem. But I was crazed. Grabbing...

Thought I was the only one :D

I used rosehips,spirulina and the yellowish is just the batch color. One of the girls I work with said it looked like a sandwich..lol

Dead bugs are too natural for me also..ick! :shock:

I'm looking for a recipe that will give me a white bar..i'm wanting to do peppermint for Christmas. I also would like some input for a deep red color..I would like to keep it natural if possible. Love all the advice you all have shared. Thanks everyone!

I'll check it out..thanks!

When I checked out with 6 bottles the cashier looked at me funny :lol:

Thanks all..I did find some Castor at a dollar store of all places..and will adjust for the CO..thanks again..you are all awesome :D

umm..did my post show up?? not sure if it did..so here it is again Castor .80oz CO 4.8oz OO 6.4oz Tallow 4.0oz Lye 2.265oz Liquid 5.28oz I'm having a hard time finding Castor and will have to order it in..also I've never used tallow before..so hoping it works!

I found this recipe and I'm out of Castor..can I use something in it's place?? And is it safe to double a recipe as the one I want to try is very small.

I'm scared to add too much EO to my soap..is there such a thing as adding too much? I just want the smell to be stronger without overpowering.

So I am loving the soap making! Curious about salt bars..what are they and how do you make them?

Being that I am new to the wonderous world of soaping I've been reading like a mad woman! I've heard alot about Tussah Silk and liquid silk and what a difference they can make. Does anyone have any info or suggestions where to get these. My local crafting stores are sadly deficiant on soap...

Thanks girls..I did slice off a bit to try..and so far it's good. I'll have to learn to be patient. Not something I'm good at apparently :D

I have discovered that I am a very impatient person. Is there a way to speed up cure time? I have a hard time waiting the first 24 hours after molding!
