I often fall asleep thinking about that kind of soap Im going to make next....gives me good dreams!

LOL, I was thinking that I should compile a webpage....not that I have any time :rolleyes2

cp doesnt "melt" like mp - you would basically be doing a rebatch, which isnt bad, just usually not as smooth

I Love Love Love Cataloupe Lily!

From my understanding, coconut oil and castor oil - any oil really - doesnt bubble UNLESS its saponified (i.e made into soap with lye) so what you have added is superfat - not bubbles.

my daughter got one for christmas from Michaels. it came in a kit and is meant for M&P, though it works for CP (at least until it breaks LOL) I also saw one here http://www.goplanetearth.com/molds_single_wordsymbol.html 3/4 of the way down the page

:shocked2: :shocked2: :shocked2:

Does she go along with it and run to your aside and apply it ever so gently? Dear lord is right, that is outrageous!!!!!!!!

wouldnt that be fun? LOL Here is the link http://perfectcomplexion.net/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2&products_id=44

from the site:

All natural ingredients include Japanese fruit oil, Siberian Ginseng, Ginkgo Biloba, Soy and 11 butters & oils infused with vitamin A which makes lips plump naturally and look so healthy!

Im interested to know what the ingredients are since she doesnt have a full list

I got a sample from a lady who sells hers for - are you ready - $15 for a .15 oz tube!!!

I melt my oils in the microwave then mix the lye with cold distilled water stirl until the lye is clear then dump the lye solution into the oils. Sort of a version of RTCP

Oooh, I do, I do! I really like it, I line with waxed paper and then when its time to cut, I can cut right through the paper - no unmolding necessary! To line, I just put a pice of paper across the mold to cover the slots in the sides - I dotn worry about lining the ends- no need. it great.

Been there! My floor ended up REALLY clean that night!

The liquid colors I use are from Michaels and I also have some from Soap Silly.

I use liquid soap color as part of my liquid for the bombs.

Sorry, I know its Bill Nye the Science Guy, but It is so interesting!

I took a knife to my solid PKO and went at it like crazy - like using an ice pick. Great way to relieve some stress!

You probably saw a calabash.

Edited to add: shea doesnt come in the calabash, its just a type of gourd. Shea actually comes from the nuts of a tree, as the post from care bear says!

How easy or hard is it to get them out of those molds? Are they pretty flexible?
