Soap Making 101 - Part 3
Published: 28/12/2011 11:29:00 AMThe oils and the lye water are all ready, as are all the extra goodies we include in our soaps. We don our goggles and gloves again as we are about to pour our lye water into our oils. This is where a picture is worth a thousand words and we hope to have some for you soon. The minute the lye water hits the oils, all those crazy molecules start breaking down bonds and re-bonding with the oils and DA DA!!! CHEMISTRY HAPPENS! The oils begin to turn a soft creamy yellow and the consistency begins to thicken fairly quickly.
Holiday Schedule
Published: 21/12/2011 6:38:00 PMWe want first of all, to thank you so much for the support we've received from our amazing customers over this past year. It has been a wonderful year for us and you know what they say, that kind of support just encourages us to try harder, to make more exciting products for our clients in the new year, and to continue to enjoy this unexpectedly successful ride! Thanks to all. Merry Christmas to all and may 2012 be filled with joy, and lots of bubbles, of course!

Soap Making 101 - Part 1
Published: 01/09/2011 3:52:00 PMAt Soapstones Soap & Skincare, we make lots of SOAP! And we make it thoughtfully and safely. Soapmaking is an ancient craft or art and hasn't changed dramatically in a thousand years! It's awesome to still be creating a beautiful product using methods that date back such a long time ago. I'll be including the history of soapmaking in this series of articles, but the library, Wikipedia, and just Googling, will get you scads of info about this wonderful and necessary occupation of mine.
