  1. I've tried the additive(cant think of the name) from Barnloft and it didn't do anything.
  2. As a pure soy that doesn't frost. I am so frustrated with the frosting in the ecosoya pure, but I love the throw. I am ready to try a different wax. I really want to stay pure or as close as I can get without frosting. Any suggestions???? TIA
  3. Cyclo is cyclomethicone, FCO is fractionated coconut oil. Both are available at MMS http://www.thesage.com/ .
  4. That's absolutely gorgeous. It looks better than things you would find in a store. I could only hope that my soaps turn out half as good as yours!!!
  5. Just wondering, Do you offer a course in organization? I wanna sign up! LOL
  6. I just got my 1st order. I splurged and bought 12 scents(8&16oz bottles). I got: Blue Skies Celtic Moonspice Childhood Essence of Jesus Forbidden Fruit Love Spell Oatmeal Milk & Honey Peppercorn Pink Sugar Southern Sunshine & Sweet Tooth. I have to say that OOB I love them all!!! I just hope they all throw well in Pure Soy and soap!
  7. I know this is probably a dumb question, how much FO is generally used in cp soap?Does the amount change if it is cpop? what about hp? Also if you want to add things like oatmeal, luffa, pumice, or salt, how much should be used and when should it be added? I'm sorry if I'm asking for too much but I've looked (and I'm sure the info is there) but I just can't find the answers. I think I've looked too much and my brain is just not working right. LOL:D TIA
  8. Can anyone point me in the direction of CPOP instructions or tips? I'm gathering all the info for various processes of soapmaking before I get started. I have all the stuff I need to get started but I'm trying to get all the info I can before I try! TIA
  9. DUH!!! I feel dumb. I guess I never realized there were instructions there. Thanks so much for pointing it out.
  10. Can anyone tell me where I can get instructions for HP soap. I am getting all my stuff together to make my first batch of soap. I found instructions for CP, but I wanted to get both so I could try it both ways and see which I like better.TIA for any help
  11. I've heard a lot on Robin's tutorial, Can anyone show me where to find it?
  12. Just a guess but couldn't you shoot it real quick with the heat gun, just enough to heat that part of the jar.Does that make sense?
  13. I've tried Frostop and it does nothing! So I'm trying to find something to help.
  14. Does anyone know, Will it help the frosting in 100% soy?
  15. I am just wondering what the benefits are to adding beeswax to pure soy wax?
  16. Ditto!!! I haven't made soap before so I am looking for a good recipe before I try this. I have really dry skin and very hard water, that's why these interest me so!
  17. I actually had done 1 test candle before these. These had a little more FO and the tester I didn't use the frostop. Could it be a bad reaction with the frostop? I just started using this, but I have done several other batches with it and never had anything like this happen. I can tell you though, the frostop doesn't work!
  18. This is how they looked after setting up. This morning they are a little more solid but at the bottoms( about 1/2 inch) there is still what looks like some liquid.
