I have found a dog shampoo recipe that I would like to try and I am wondering do I measure eo's by weight or volume? Thanks, Kelly

Made some tonight in a bedtime bath scent from aroma haven. I also added some powdered gm and a little jojoba oil. Can't wait to try them out later!

Kimber you could probably use some other non comodogenic oil in the low clogging probability list. http://www.soapnuts.com/noncomo.html I just happened to have the emu because I use it in a pain cream for my son as he has cerebral palsy and terrible hip pain. So I thought what the heck I would try it insomething for myself! Let me know how this works for you. Kelly

For about the last month I have been having a terrible time with cystic acne on my face. So I did a little research and came up with a little concoction that seems to be working rather well. The acne is going away slowly but nothing else is popping up either. 1 oz. Honey 1/2 oz. Neem Oil 1 oz. Emu Oil 1 oz. Sweet Almond Oil 1 oz. Liquid Soap Base (I used a jojoba liquid Soap base) 1 t. polysorbate 20 1 t. Lavender EO 1 t. Lemon EO I started using this on the 2/12 and it's almost gone. Now remember Neem has a nutty sort of yucky smell, but honestly this really is working great. If you don't have emu use some other noncomodogenic oil. Here is an excellent chart - http://www.soapnuts.com/noncomo.html Kelly:yay:

Once I saw this thread I had to try this FO. I debated and debated for a few days and then went 1/2's with a friend on 8 oz. in case I didn't like it. Oh my gosh we should have gotten at least a #. This is to die for!!!! So now that I only have 4 oz. I'm not sure what to make with it.......so may things so little oil!

I hate rose but I love the smell of sensous black rose from fragrance oil heaven.

I was told to make chunk soap with the excess. Thanks everyone for the wonderful comments. Kelly

I do have a website, but never have the time to do anything with it. And when I do get the time to do anything when I get back to it all the work I have done is outdated. :-( http://scentsationalscentsbykelly.com Thanks everyone for the nice comments! Very much appreciated.

This is the first time I have used a cookie cutter to cut my soap. I think it turned out ok. This is a Mango Shea GM Soap. I finally figured out how to make a decent swirl too!!! Thanks for looking. Before it was cut: After it was cut:

This is a wonderful recipe and so simple to make!

I didn't and mine turned out wonderfully. I have customers that can't seem to get enough of it.

You can buy coconut oil at Walmart in the baking section with the other oils. Kelly

You made this with the looms??? That means I just might be able to make one!!! Wow! I may have to go buy the big loom set @ walmart!!!

How do I eliminate air pockets in my container candles? I am using glass glow wax. Thanks Kelly

uh oh that means the excess I put in my tart molds is not gonna come out!!!! I am new to making candles so I would really appreciate some help with something. I read in a post that I take .86 x weight of water in container and that should give me the proper amount of wax to melt. Well I had enough leftover for about 9 .8 oz. tarts. What am I doing wrong? Last time I tried using one of the calculators and oh my I had a ton of excess wax. Thanks, Kelly

Is it possible to make pillars or votives using this wax? Thanks Kelly

Here is an excellent sticky on preservatives. http://www.craftserver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21760

This recipe is fabulous and so simple!! I didn't have kokum so I used Mango instead, but it's wonderful thanks so much for sharing! Kelly

15.3 oz. Lard 15.3 oz. Olive Oil 12.8 oz. Coconut Oil 2.5 oz. Castor Oil 5.1 oz. Sunflower Oil 2 oz. Mango Butter 7.4 oz. LYE 6 oz. Water 10 oz. GM Here is some info on making whipped soap. Actually its easier than CP cause everything is done cold. No melting of oils or anything. So if you are using GM theres no worry of scorching. http://candleandsoap.about.com/od/co...ppedsoap_2.htm This also makes a really nice CP soap.

What is emulsified body butter?

very nice!

That is absolutely adorable. If you ever decide to make a larger one for an adult I'd love to buy it!!!!! You've got a wonderful talent. Oh and the model shes sweet and adorable too! Kelly

What size recipe for a pringles can?

She really asked for a refund??? I am dumbfounded by that. Next time under soap you will have to put in bold DO NOT EAT !

I put about 8 in a 4x6 ziplock type bag, create a label fold over the top and staple it on. I was out of foil and this seemed to work just as well and still looks nice. Kelly
