I just made some and yours look way better lol. Though I always put too much additives in them I still haven't been brave enough to color salt bars like that. So pretty!
-
Every once in a while BB will have a coupon for silicone molds BTW your salt bar looks great!
-
Salt bars have always been my favorite to make and use I love this mold https://www.brambleberry.com/6-Half-Cylinder-Silicone-Mold-P5822.aspx

Have anyone tried these in CP soap from Just Scent? Perfect pumkin, pumpkin crunch pie, pumpkin cupcake or candy corn buttercream? They sound so yummy! TIA
-
I wish they would get the bill up I've been dying to read it.
-
I use my blender it's over 400 watts and it seems to do the trick but I noticed with wheat and oat flour even companies can't get it fine like the colloidal. Bobs Red Mill does the best at it though
-
I put mine in the oven on it's lowest setting to get them to gel I do this with my slab molds too.
-
I actually love cp but for oils that can go more quickly I like hp for that. I haven't seen DOS in hp yet (knock on wood) and I live in a humid area.
-
This is what I think I did. I swear it looks like it boiled on top of the soap but it's still useable. Glad the link helped
-
Thank you
-
Westsoy makes a unsweetened soy milk and it's just soybeans and water if anyone is interested & afraid of the sugar they put in some. I think I'm going to try hemp next.
-
That is exactly what one of my batches did a couple weeks ago. My oven is old so I believe it went too high but I didn't know I was suppose to watch it. Here is a good video on it
-
These are so gorgeous! I bought a bunch of tips and nail head to do the cp but I'm afraid to try it lol
-
You'll have less problems with DOS with HP though, at least in my experience
-
I love candlescience rose in cp, it's a true rose to me

I'm a moron when it comes to cutting loaf soap
soycrazy replied to WillowBoo's topic in General Soap Making
I can't cut soap either so I have hubby do it with his chef knife lol. I'm thinking about getting one of the wire cheese slicers though like this http://www.walmart.com/ip/Fox-Run-Craftsmen-Wooden-Cheese-Slicer/14989275 they are $10 I seen in the store soaping 101 uses one -
This is a great page thanks! I am so surprised that salt is on there & coconut oil I use salt bars everyday and haven't had problems. I have hard water too.
-
If you add lye to your oat milk it will turn into a gloppy mess, but it is totally fine to use Mine never burned but I agree it's better to add it at trace. Here is another way to make oat milk that I've been wanting to try with steel cut oats & you rinse the slime off of it so maybe that is why it gets gloppy in lye.

I love them in soap a little goes a long way
-
My face breaks out from shea too but mango it's ok I guess it just depends on the person. A salt bar really helps with my breakouts though.
-
Extracts are made with alcohol and tend to burn off so the scent doesn't really work in cp or hp. Flavor oils are made with oils. Hope that helps
-
Thanks! Where do you get yours that are natural? I love using eo's in soap but would love to change it up a bit.
-
This sounds lovely how much do you use per lb is it the same as fo's?
-
Yeah they are pretty slow but have great products. Just wish I was closer to them for faster shipping.
-
I like using eo's because I'm allergic to most fo's but there are some great fo's out there! I didn't know you could use flavor oils in soap do you make cp TexasBrat?
