I went to Hobby Lobby and bought 10 pounds of Pure Glycerin Soap and some soap molds. I thought I would make small batches first until I got it right. I have read the instructions and do understand. Now I need scents for my soap. I need Jasmine, Rose, Sandalwood, Rosehips. I have bought some bath soap with these scents and loved it. My question is, what site do you reccomend to buy I am assuming essential oils? And I would like to color my soap. How do I do this? I would so appreciate any help to get me started. I am not selling soap, this is for my personal use.
 
Hello and welcome! There are a lot of different suppliers and there have been numerous discussions about scents and colorants. There is actually a discussion going on right now about colorants. You could either skim thorough the Fragrance section and Supplier section or use the advanced search function to search for the specific fragrances you want.

The main site I use for FOs is Peak Candle http://www.peakcandle.com/ but there are other suppliers I buy from to get specific scents.

Most of the colorants I use, I have bought from TKB http://tkbtrading.com/ or Bitter Creek North http://www.candlesupply.com/

But as I said, there are a lot of different suppliers so you'll want to look through the forum for suggestions.
 
Thank you for your reply. I have been reading forum for about two hours today. Has been a big help. So, I should get started on my soap in a week or so. I am sure I have a lot to learn.
