Soaps

My two favorite types of soap are called Patchouli-berry, Lavender, and Oatmeal Milk & Honey.

I have been making soaps now for 6 years. Do I consider myself an expert? NO! My quote is, "we never know everything for we are for ever learning"!!

Is soaping hard? No, especially when you have determination. I love the traditional soaping known as CP (Cold Process), and or HP (Hot Process); CP is you heat oils up, make lye solution, bring both down to close temps and then mix to trace add EO's & or herbs; then mold. HP is almost same thing EXCEPT you continue cooking for a time longer which allows for shorter curing time! I do stick with CP more.

I like homemade soaps because I can controll thee amount of chemicals that are added into my soaps. There really isn't any necessary need for all those chemicals.

One thing I wish is that I had recieved recipes from my grandparents of how they made things; but seems as though some people in my family didn't think anyone would want that stuff. Boy where they wrong.
