  1. I'm sorry so late responding. When I used 1 oz of BTMS and .5 oz of ewax it separated but did fine with .5 BTMS and 1 oz ewax.

    I would just add some gylcerin. I will just follow the recipe as it was written. Thank you so much for your response.

  2. I am so frustrated! I thought this recipe only separated when I used olive oil. But it seems to be a hit or miss. When it doesn't separate it's wonderful!! People who try say it's amazing! I mix up the e-wax with BTMS at times could that be the problem? Sometimes I add some glycerin could that be the problem? Last night I thought I had the problem solved because the moment I added the FO it separated but tonight it separated before the FO. PLEASE can anyone help me?

  3. I am so glad I found this thread. I make CP soap and have never done anything with M&P until a few weeks ago I bought some clear to put some plastic bugs in as a novelty for kids.

    I was making a small batch of CP soap and used a Dirt FO and colored it camoflauge. I mentioned on facebook how my house smells like dirt because of the soap. We I have presold 30 bars of "hunter's soap". I don't have time to make that much and it cure good enough so I decided I would make M&P. For some reason I had bought some "pearl and foam booster" from WSP. Can I use that in M&P? I really don't know why I bought it in the first place.

    Thanks in advance for your advice

  4. Masks are fun. I usually go by ear, so long as there's about 40% clay in there (give or take 10%), you've got the mask-ey feel.

    Maybe try:

    40-50% clay (something mild like Aussie pastel pink, french pink or just kaolin)

    20% finely ground oatmeal or hydrolyzed oatmeal powder

    10-20% milk or yogurt powder

    10% honey powder

    (optional)10% anything else! Cocoa powder, aloe powder, kelp powder, ground herbs... up to you, really.

    Have fun!

    I made a mask similar to this I used Kaolin clay, honey powder, baby oatmeal and lemon powder. Wasn't real sure about the lemon powder but thought it might lighten the dark freckles. I have never used a mask in my life (48 yrs old). Boy was my skin dry when I washed it off. So I used the oil mixture from the Oil Cleansing Method. 25% Castor Oil and 75% Sunflower Oil. My face sucked up this oil mixture but I still put the hot wet towel on my face.

    Boy does my face feel amazing today.

    Does the mask normally make your face feel so dry? I forgot the powder milk would that have made a difference?

    Thanks in advance
