I've been making soap for about 3years and i have never made anything that pretty!!!! Very nice

Those are really nice......bet they smell great too

very nice.....I really like the look of the honey soap. Did you use the honey m&p base? Did you add color? Sheli

Oh I feel your pain!!!! I wish I could help but I have never worked with soy. I have been making candles since 2007 and there are a few scents that I just love but for the life of me I can't find the right wick for that scent. I sure that someone who has worked with the wax you are using will chime in and point you in the right direction.....you came to the right place. Just don't give up you will get it, thats one thing about this business you have to test, retest and test again. Good luck in your candlemaking journey.....

Butt Naked has always been a best seller for me except when I changed the name......I couldn't give it away. I my case the name is what sells it, just something to think about.

Great recipes in this thread!!! http://www.craftserver.com/forums/showthread.php?90126-M-amp-P-Recipes&highlight=

Pink Sugar Butt Naked J&J Bedtime Bath......soaps beautifully too!!!!! Pomegranate

You can make bath bombs without slsa.....no bubbles but still a very good product.

Ocean Mist from Cajun Candles is a very nice fo. It has that beach smell without the florals, but more of a green scent. It is great in salt bars and candles.

What about the black......mine always ends up looking a little grey, dark grey but grey? Oh by the way AWESOME soap!!!!!!

The fast trace could have something to do with your recipe. For example if you use a high precentage of olive oil in your receipt you will not reach trace as fast as you would if used a high precentage of plam oil. Just some advice, until you get more familiar with your oils and how they react I would not use the stick blender JMO. As for the color, it just depends on what you use some morph to different colors, some you need more of some you need less. My soap base is not white it is more of a yellow and I have never had a blue turn green, but thats just me I can't speak for everyone else. Just a little something else, test, test, test.......you gonna hear that alot. Welcome to my addiction Sheli

Those are just too cute!!!! Great jobsanta cool

You need to use clear soap base, black oxide should give you a true black if you use a clear base.

I like!!!! I will be working on some m&p tomorrow. I have never tried to do swirl in m&p I'm still trying to get it right in cp. I love making soap.....I just wish I had more time to devote to the craft. Good Luck at your show this weekend.
