I freeze because they are Milk soaps so they won't turn tan or orange from the goats milk I put in there. I use Goats Milk Powder at the end of the process I make a paste with the Powder by adding about 1 1/2 ounces of distilled water to it. Also it helps with the scent not burning off because the HP is so hot when I pour it into the mold. Barbara

Vio, I color half the batch and then drop by tablespoons in the crockpot all over and then swirl a couple of times with the Silicone Spatula and then I take a bamboo stick and do some swirling with it then put it into the log mold. I freeze my HP soap for about 2 1/2 hours and then cut. Barbara

These are some HP soaps I made today!! Thanks for Looking! Barbara

Vio, very pretty Salt Bars!!!! You are going to love using these in the Summer. I think I made myself about 20 of these salt bars I know my family is probably going to ask for a few!! Barbara

I am lucky too I have a few of her soaps but they are too pretty to use I have used a few and they feel wonderful on my skin !! Barbara

I really love Tennessee Candle Supply for their fragrances!!! If you buy 6 1 pound bottles free shipping!! Here are some that I love Amish Harvest Apple Cinnamon Apple Mango Tango type Cinnamon Bread Pudding Cinnamon Cider Cinnamon Stick Harvest Spice Honeydew and Summer Berries Love Spell type Ocean Rock Sun Washed Linen Tangerine Dreams HTH Barbara

I am thinking you could probably use Sunflower, Apricot, or anykind of edible oil just one that doesn't have alot of smell or taste to it so you won't taste it in the toothsoap. Barb

You really don't taste the soap after a few days you will get used to it. I tried to go back to toothpaste one day because I was getting low on my stash and I could feel the sticky glycerin on the back of my teeth and food stuck to it. You know when you use toothsoap your teeth feel squeaky clean all day and even into the next day. Barbara

Donna, I make mine unflavored that way I can make different flavors each time I make a small batch for me. I use Lorann's flavor oils like cinnamon, Peppermint, Spearmint, Wintergreen I just count the drops that I put in each batch I use about 10-15 drops in a 1 ounce batch. I have even used lipbalm flavorings like Bubblegum and made a bubblemint. Barbara

Very beautiful soaps!!! Are those all done with the Hanger method? *soap porn approval* Barbara

I see a dragonfly stamped on the yellow ones they are so cute. Barbara

Scented I use toothsoap instead of toothpaste I make my toothsoap with oils like Olive, Sesame, Sunflower, Rice Bran, Cocoa Butter and Tallow I Cp this soap recipe and I add EO Oils like Peppermint, Spearmint, Wintergreen or Cinnamon. Once you use toothsoap you will never go back to toothpaste again. Toothpaste contains Glycerin and glyercin is sticky and makes plaque stick to your teeth when you use toothsoap it is like a powerwash for your teeth. After the soap has cured and dried out I run it through a coffee grinder to make a powder and then put my oils, Xylitol Sweetner,and distilled water in there to make a paste. http://www.soapdishforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=33139&hl=Toothsoap Barbara

I thought this was cute!!! This is my toothsoap curing, cut with my wavy cutter!! Thanks for looking! Barbara

Very Pretty Louise!! you did a great job I just love them!!! Barbara

They are all pretty!! I especially like the first one!! Barbara

Depends some Superfat 7, 8, 10, or even 20 percent if they use 100 percent coconut I like mine about 8 percent. Barbara

This is Citrus Splash from BCN my orange got to dark so now I have RED!!! Thanks for looking! Barbara

How about Tootie Green's Coastal Dreams that rimes doesn't it? Barbara

Has anyone tried Taylored Concepts for the Opium scent I know I have gotten a few and they were identical. HTH Barbara

Very beautiful the color goes with the scent. Barbara

I think the ash is worse when the Salt bars are colored. I don't think you see it as much if the bars are left white and just a colored swirl on top. Salt bars are suppose to look ashy. Barbara

Louise, I sprinkle Salt on top of my bars I hope you don't think that is ash!! LOL!! I like the Sprinkled look it looks like Sugar on top. Barbara

Michi, I use Hain Sea Salt from Wally World. Louise I CP these if you HP them the salt will be way to course on your skin. Barbara

Wow!!! Those are Pretty. Congratulations you will definitely be hooked. Barbara

These are two Salt bars that I made today First one is Ocean Fresh from RA and the next one that I mixed up myself it is Keylime and Orange. Thanks for Looking Barbara
