how oval? I have this one... its held up great and makes a nice bar... i prefer the feel of an oval bar over round or rectangle... I would love to find a contoured mold.. like the shape of a bar of TONE... this one is from pine meadows I also have the 5.8 oz one from WSP.. I just don't fill it completely full/

I am working on these now.... I made a mold.. and almost have what I what hardness wise...I am doing menthol /eucalyptus ones.. as well as some aroma therapy ones....that just smells nice.. I am not trying to duplicate... as their formula has a chemical reaction attached.. if you touch it while activated.. its HOt... I am aiming for something more along the lines of those cheesy bath cubes we got when we were kids... I am not working hard on it.. just when I think about it..

I use my food saver

yes!! it it great without FO too!! I make a sesame scrubby bar with crushed sesame seeds.. its smells nutty and wonderful. I dont add color either, it turned into a nice golden color, like toasted sesame seeds!

I make just about every scent for my salt/sugar scrubs.. to match my soaps and lotions... I do a mostly food,fruit and aromatherapy stuff.. I would think the same could apply to bombs...but I myself am drawn to the FRESH and citrusy smells of bath fizzies..

anyone ever order from here? its a new one to me. I just ordered a 3lb sampler of Aloe Vera Shampoo Silk Conditioner Exfoliating Body Wash Bubble Bath Moist. Shower Gel Suspending Body Wash Pearl Shower Gel all for 20$ plus shipping... thought it was worth a peak.

they have linen spray base for 11.95 a gallon. anyone every tried theirs?

awesome colors!! that will make a really pretty confetti bar!

I have gotten them at brambleberry in the past.. I really hate the push ones now and only use the twist up ones...

many are happy with none.. and just sahking before spraying... or you could use some polysorbate20. I just ordered a new one to try out dont ask me the name.. its a number likeformula b487 its an acrylic/silicone polymer... I am gonna try it out and see...

I usually just whizz it in with a stick blender..I like using it cause I can go up and down through the mix and get it pretty evenly distributed..

does olive oil rinse out well?

brambleberry has them too.

I like the lab colors too..food coloring in liquid or paste always bleeds. I had one confetti bar... fine for 3 months..then it bled.

here is their emulsified scrub and whipped body mousse

my kids stayed home for career day with me and I let them make MP soap and lotions and scrubs... this is my sons cocoa butter chocolate MP and my daughters whipped pink sugar.

yeah i use anything and everything for soap molds:p this is a green tea and lavendar goats milk

is the slippery side the "top".. sounds like your additives just settled and your rubbing the side that is mostly cocoa butter..

I am trying to grasp what you are saying.. is the whole thing solid.. as in Not soft? you might not have mixed it throughly and some of the citric or soda settled a bit more on one side??..

for hair...anyone have a T&T recipe? I am looking for one for personal use.

I found it here on the board awhile back.. this is the one I used. 1cup melted clear MP base 4 cups water 2 envelopes Knox unflavored Gelatin 1 oz germabenII Fragrance oil 3 or 4 skin safe dyes 3 or 4 small containers Pour envelopes of Gelatin into a bowl and set aside. Microwave 4 cups of water until boiling. Gently pour into the bowl of gelatin and stir until completely dissolved. In the meantime melt the M&P in the microwave. Add fragrance oil to the melted M&P. Slowly pour the soap into the Gelatin and stir gently. When mixed thoroughly, pour into individual containers and color. Place uncovered containers in the refrigerator until firm. we use the new gladware tumblers with lids to put this in...

this is one of those products you either love or hate. My little ones love it, so i keep making it.

I got mine today! i was so excited.. they are HUGE!!

have you checked the the bakers catalouge or candycraft.com?

anything and everything really not finished product, samples of additives, bases,etc..... just looking to find some new stuff with out investing a pile of cash..
