Denise2456 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Hi Synascent, got two questions:In the above recipe is that the correct amount for the glycerin?Also did you ever try this with corn starch instead of the cream of tartar? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbrown Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Questions regarding this recipeWhy is the shelf life only 2 months. There are no oils in this that would go bad. Is it the glycerine? There is no water in the recipe.Just wondering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
