What soapy thing have you done today?

[MrsZ]

I am using a bar of oatmeal, goat's milk, and honey soap that just finished the first 6 weeks of it's cure. It's very nice, but it is gritty. I've never had one of my oatmeal soaps be gritty before. I used Aveeno colloidal oats and powdered goats milk. I'm sure it's the oats because another bar with powdered goats milk but no oats is super creamy. I wonder if I should have hydrated the oats somehow? It's very odd to me.

I've thought about soap today - does that count ?

I use the Avery website. It’s pretty simple to use. If you decide to give it a try and need help, let me know.

Agree with the Avery website! I design all my labels there and then save a PDF to a print file on my PC.

Label-haters, unite! They make me and I'll definitely take dishes any day instead.

Completely agree!

Hoping to hear any comments on this. One of my next soaps is planned to include colloidal oats, which I’ve never done before. Curious….
