When essential depot ships mine they ship via USPS priority
-
I was pouring them in silicone molds. I will start checking the temps next time, thanks!
-
Yes it's the plastic looking stuff on top I can't stand it lol. It cools to quick too and before I can pour it starts to form. Thanks for helping me I really appreciate it
-
I should have explained it better more like a skin when you pour. I guess that is normal with SFIC bases then. Do you know any bases that don't do this? Thanks for your help candy
-
What causes the shiny film on top after pouring the soap? I use the low sweat bases from brambleberry. I've always had issues with it even when I don't get it from bb.
-
I like these, they are so easy. I have a bad cold right now so I'm going to use them tonight. I put menthol crystals on a few of them so I can't wait to try them.
-
Never tried that just the aloe vera powder. I just added it to my soap batter but I never tried infusing it that is a good idea though
-
I wonder how coconut butter would work in soap, maybe like coconut milk?
-
Definitely you don't get much out of it either. I know where I live one coconut is over $4 so it's not worth it for me Mountain Rose Herbs has a powdered aloe that is nice in soap it gives a nice speckled look
-
You can make coconut oil from the fresh coconut too
-
I bought the kind in the container just straight coconut water no additives. I didn't buy fresh because I can't stand coconut! I don't mind it in soap though except for the scent lol. If you follow soaping101 on youtube she did a soap and used the whole coconut in her soap it was really cool.
-
I love karen she is one of the best cupcake soapmakers out there!
-
Candy have you tried coconut water yet? I bought some but haven't tried it yet.
-
No issues at all The only time I had issues is if I used a plant milk with a lot of sugar but I tend to soap warm. Using the unsweetened milk is the best to prevent the overheating issues.
-
Almond milk works wonderful in soap I usually add it at trace. I would be careful with the chocolate mint because it's high in sugar maybe put it in the fridge so it won't overheat. I love soy milk in soap too. I've been thinking of trying the soy milk creamer to try that out.
-
This is what I have noticed also & I didn't care for it. I love lots of lather!
-
For me personally it was way more drying on my skin this is why I stick with coconut oil. You'll just have to try it out for yourself. I have seen recipes with both though. PKO does make a nice hard bar too
-
That is good to know. I hardly use fo's due to allergies so that shouldn't be a problem. That is the one thing though I need to figure out is putting it somewhere she can't get to. I never realized how much they climbed, so I'm learning the hard way lol. Thanks!
-
We took in a stray cat & she is my first kitty so I'm new to cat care. I know a lot of essential oils are no no's to put on cats, but are using oil/tart warmers ok around her with essential oils, tarts etc.? I just want to make sure I don't want to hurt her.
-
I love the idea of putting cards in cello bags, plus labels are a pain for cello bags at least for me they are
-
Yeah I tried all of them lol. Sorry it's not work for you either, what a bummer.
-
I use linux and I can't get it to work in IE, chrome, firefox or seamonkey Maybe it just works on mac. What is archived day I can't seem to find it in my google search.
-
Lucky! It keeps telling me "Please select at least one Essential Oil" when I know it's one of the blends I used before poo!
-
Yeah there are way more eo's that are cheaper than sandalwood. You could try amyris it is similar to sandalwood
-
I have tried that before and it has never worked for me unfortunately
