Candybee Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Anyone tried this? I found some at Be Scented: https://www.bescented.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=12&zenid=b590d7e8c5b84d4019d9336a4b6b461c There's not a whole lot of details about it other than its the vegan sub for Tussah and its harder to dissolve. If you have tried it how did you like it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I personally haven't tried it but know some people who have and they say it's a comparative replacement if you want silky but cater to the vegan crowd. Other than that, that's about all I know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 I was thinking about it because I have a 'vegan' line of soaps without silk. The bamboo silk could be a good replacement. Just wondering how it performs/feels in the soap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I have some, shared by a friend who has tried it. She "thinks" is adds "something". It is in the currently running "lather lover's swap round 2" elsewhere. I will upload the videos of the sink tests to my youtube channel along with the first round so you can see if it does anything visibly to the lather quality. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) I know I will get some anyway. You know how sometimes you just have to try something out for yourself! I remember discussing this on another forum a few months back. Someone asked if there was a vegan sub for Tussah. So I am thrilled there is at least something that exists. BTW-- they were discussing using corn silk. I think someone tried it but it didn't dissolve well in the lye. Or maybe it didn't dissolve at all. Don't remember which. Just thought of fibers in the coconut husk. Wonder if that could be classified as silk? Even if it could, unless you have a coconut palm in your backyard I doubt you would find a supply.

TT did you try the bamboo silk yet? Also, how much do you use PPO in CP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
