Hey, Everyone!
I would love to buy that book about liquid soapmaking. I will have to check
it out. Thanks for telling us about it! Sounds like you’re having fun with
your soapmaking! It all seems difficult at first, I think, and there are
those moments where you just want to quit, but you just have to press on! I’ve tried making liquid hand soap and shower gel, and both times it worked
out well, but mine were just very simple recipes. The shower gel that I
made, I used an unscented shampoo base and added some sweet almond oil, some
water, and some watermelon fragrance oil — it turned out pretty well, but
the consistency was more like bubble bath than shower gel. The fragrance was
great, though. Real summery! I also made some spearmint-scented hand soap
one time for our bathroom. I used a liquid shower gel base (with pearly mica
flakes in it!) and added some water and spearmint flavor oil. The scent was
amazing! Anyway, those are my experiences — I’m very much a newbie.
Anxious to hear how your project turns out! Keep us posted!
