Gorgeous swirls!

Thank you Kelly. Really appreciate your input.

The recipe called for the EO/FO to be mixed with the crystal and since I don't want the citric acid to start fizzing, I'm not sure at which point to add the scent & the citric. I'll just have to play with it.

Anyone? Is it bad form asking for help with someone else's recipe?

or babassu. These 3 are considered the cleansing oils in soapmaking.

Newbie here wanting to make this for holiday gift.

How's the best way to incorporate the FO & colorants since I don't want to use the menthol crystals? I think I read about some salts being difficult to color?

Too advanced for me but I'll be sitting in. Thanks Grumpy. I know I'll learn plenty from this class.

They look fabulous. Congrats!

Delicious!

Simply Gorgeous!! Darn I wish I could do those swirls.

Wow! nice job. love that top. looks like frosting.

love the vibrant colors. very nice work

yeah, what she said. Are these SS colors?

Thanks Scented. Yeah, I am fairly new but I have done 5 batches. I hope to do at least 2 more before Grumpy's class. Maybe I'll be ready by then?

I guess I'll just "watch" this one so I can learn how it works. Then I'll be ready for Grumpygirl's salt bar.

Did you know you can save soapcalc onto your computer to use without being online? I do it all the time. In any case, congrats on your purchase.

Do a search. I believe GrandmaArial tried it. Don't remember how it did.

DeJae,

Interesting indeed? I'd be curious to know if it has a fishy odor to it. Let us know. Btw, would the fish oil saponify?

Congratulations!

I'm fairly new to this myself but I can help you here. You'll want to cut them into bars & let them sit to cure for at least 6 weeks.

Can someone explain how exactly this "class" thing works? How do I sit in one of these classes?

Those colors & swirls rock!

Is the blue jean select shades?

Wow. I hadn't seen these before. They're sensational! You certainly have no need to be jealous. You're very talented.

I agree with CareBear. I think both mp & cp are a work of art.

I don't sell. I make them for our use & gifts. But when I make a gift for someone, I think about what their style is. Is the soap for a young & trendy person? Maybe I'll go with mp in a cute or flowery mold, or with curls embedded. If the person is an all natural kind of girl, I go with a natural cp. For guys, maybe a bright colored clear mp. For my granddaughters, mp in a girly mold. They just love my flip flops.

I think they both have their place.

Congratulations. Those look f___ amazing!

For these cupcakes, do you throw the whole thing into the tub? If so, what happens to the icing in the tub?

Ok, finally used my silicon'd mold. I placed a piece of freezer paper to line down 1 side, across bottom & up the other side. That way I had something to tug, just in case the soap stuck. That worked perfectly.

They're lovely.
