CandleMama6 Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 (edited) Cause I want to play with a recipe and don't have any yet. :pNot sure if you could buy this at the pharmacy counter. I really have no idea what it even is. I JUST LOVE LEARNING NEW THINGS!! Edited February 13, 2010 by CandleMama6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
van_yulay Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 (edited) It is a clear liquid, that is extracted from soap. Soap makers use large amounts of salt to make the glycerin rise to the top. Then scrap it off and sell it to you . That process is also use for making nitro glycerin. Glycerin is an hummecant in lotions. It depends on what you are putting it in. Honey is a hummecant also. It would be great in soap & Lotion.

CandleMama6 Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 Thanks Monica. I was actually able to find some at Wal-Mart so now I can try the bubble bars. I ordered some from Soapers Choice but I won't get that until next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
