elitenaildesign Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I know this is just a personal preference, but how do you all like your soap....Bubbly or Creamy. I was messing around of soapcalc w/ a couple recipes and they sound sooo good, but on the very creamy side and I prefer bubbles. I just thought it would be interesting to see how soapers feel about their soaps. Quote
CareBear Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 It's been hard for me to get bubbly (my preference) without making a soap that is drying to my skin. Quote
Carriegsxr6 Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 It's been hard for me to get bubbly (my preference) without making a soap that is drying to my skin.agreed.I like bubbly as well, but need to keep my conditioning number at 60 or above. Its hard to do that if your bubbly and cleansing number is too high. Quote
mountainmadness Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 Bubbly, for sure. Like the others said, it can be tricky to get the perfect blend of both. Quote
funnygirl Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 Well, I thought I was a bubbly gal, but after using some GM soap I got from another soaper, I am definatly a creamy gal, LOL! I like a very dense, bubbly cream, which is concidered creamy, right?! The creamy seems to really moisturize my skin, where some of the very bubbly soaps i have tried in the past seem to strip all the oils from my skin. Quote
thecandlespastore Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I put Babassu and Castor in every batch. I like creamy bubbles for myself, but for the soaps I sell I keep the conditioning at around 54-56 and still get a good bubbly score. I never let my bubble score go over 20. Quote
Scented Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 Me thinks I spent forever in search of the bubbly that I better not become a creamy fan! Bubbly, but then I have a couple of batches that are pretty foamy and I like it like that. Quote
wildangel112 Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 My GM soap has made a creamy fan of me . Quote
mbrown Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 I also like the creamy GM soap. I just made some this evening. Can't wait for it to cure. :yay: Quote
Noodle Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 I am also a creamy fan. I love the moisture. Then comes the bubbles. Quote
Crafty1_AJ Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 Big fat fluffy bubbles are tempting. They make it seem like the soap is actually working. LOLBUT I do prefer soaps that are as non-drying as possible. So my soaps tend to be high on conditioning and a bit lower on fluffy lather. They mostly have the creamy, dense type. Especially the goat milk soap. Quote
