Yay! Come over to our group and post some pics!

Two weeks are you’re good…. Four weeks is better.

@@ThermalMermaid Thanks a lot! I made it today, and it was the first time when i was using my blender for more than 5 min, and the soap was still liquid . Usually i suffer from the opposite problem ). I decided that it has at least emulsified, (not sure if to went to trace,) and poured it into a mold. Will keep it there for a week, just in case. Can't wait to use it. Thanks again!

Ph 5-6 is more acid. A typical bar of soap will be 7 with a leaning toward 8-9…. Are you saying you want 5-6?

My grandmothers and even some aunts were rinsing their hair with a quart of warm water with a spoon of vinegar in it. Maybe, this is what you can try?

@_Diana_S Yes a vinegar rinse is a very well known old technique..... The water would probably rinse any acid away from the vinegar and leave you around 7 again. What eve touches you last will be your ph.... its usually water.

I'm obsessed with lavender and rosemary these days! So much.... that Ive planted them this summer in the yard. I think Im entering my old lady era ......

@@ThermalMermaidYou enter Old Lady era when you suddenly start liking Rose aroma.

@@_Diana_S hahaha! Do you remember the rose from Crabtree and Evelyn? My grandmother used to send me their rose toiletries. You’re so right!!! Hahahahs!

You sound like an experienced soap maker! Come join us at CottageDIY.com

Give them a little time to dry up after you slice, then spritz w rubbing alcohol and they become crystal clear. After a while the surfaces cloud up but when you pick it up and get it wet it washes away the thin film of cloudiness and is crystal clear again.

I love it!

Thanks for watching!

Oh wow!. That is the first time Ive learned of that grocery store and I just looked up their palm shortening prices! Great deal! Thank you for sharing that with me.

You are so welcome!

Try plastic 32 oz. measuring cups. You can get them on amazon or sometimes the dollar stores will carry them.

I'm hooked on everything that smells like rosemary these days.

In some cases magnesium sulfate will gunk up in cp soaps but in hp you’ve cooked off so much more of the water that it is less likely to cause an issue. There are some who do want their epsom salts and if you choose it you will have better luck in a hp soap. I used sea salt in this bar and avoided the humectant possibility all together. I think magnesium (chloride ) is better used in lotions anyway.

Not at all. This is a regular bar of soap and it will behave just like any soap only you have control over the natural ingredients that go into it.

these cut much faster than a simple formula. You can cut these as soon as three hours... it does depend on how much water you let burn off.

Ahahahahahah I was waiting for that comment!

Hope you like it!

@27 minutes you say the CBD doesn't absorb in your skin, but it does absorb in your hair follicle. Am I understanding correctly? Or did I misunderstand that?

@@melissapeterson4202 yes you are correct. The paper states CBD absorbs poorly into the skin over all but it DOES absorb into the hair follicle better than other parts of skin where it can modulate CB1 and CB2 receptors .

@@melissapeterson4202 also keep in mind when we are talking about lotions and cremes cbd isn’t transferring through your skin. The cbd is not going into your body at all. It is reacting with receptors in your skin in the ECS that then send signals for pain relief/ relaxation…. Or what ever the perceived benefit. It’s a neuromodulator…. Not a drug.

@@ThermalMermaid thank you for the explanation! 😊 I appreciate it.

No. The live on this formula will be up tomorrow and then be up for a week.

Glad you like them!

Do you mean preservative? In this formula I would use Optiphen / or Preservative - Water Soluble PF
