ladysj Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Arrowroot powder and bentonite powder. Can I use them together to make a bath/body powder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Arrowroot can be used in body powders. Bentonite clay is good in shaving soaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 Would I mix anything with the arrowroot? It seems like I remember a recipe I had some where (lord only knows where it is) adding cornstarch to it.How much clay would I use pp in the shaving soap? Sorry for all the questions. I am wanting to make up some shaving soaps for Fathers Day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted March 24, 2007 Author Share Posted March 24, 2007 Bumping up hoping to get a little more input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I use 1tsp of clay ppo. The clay helps to add slip to the shaving soap. With the powders, I'll have to check my notes in my shop and get back to you on that. It's too early and my mind is not working properly yet. But I will let you know.

Carrie Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Did you try a search. I just did and found some good information. I went to search, advanced search. Then typed in arrowroot, clicked on bath&body, then went down to the very bottom and changed the default to posts instead of threads. Arrowroot SearchFor the bentonite I searched the same way except highlighted both soap and B&B.Bentonite SearchYou can also try searching in the Archives.

ladysj Posted March 24, 2007 Author Share Posted March 24, 2007 Thanks Carrie I didn't think about advanced search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 To make a body using the arrowroot, you can also use rice flower, I had some recipes written down but darned if I can find them. I can remember one had a clay in it too but I don't know which one. I've been starting to look into body powders lately and collecting information and supplies. If I find this info and any more, I'll let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
