Guest guest Posted January 1, 2001 Report Share Posted January 1, 2001 Hi : There are a number of recipes at MMS www.the-sage.com plus some at the Toiletries Library http://www.luxurylane.com/thelibrary/index.htm I would suggest that when you first start, keep your recipes small (easier to handle). If you need any further help, just let me know.

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 I agree; we work so hard to perfect our products that we make & sell; then someone wants us to tell them what is in it or how to make it. If we tell everyone how something is made then they will make it & won't buy it so we are out of business. She should have told you that she doesn't give out her recipes or her suppliers instead of being rude & ignoring you. There are so many websites that have recipes & step buy step instructions for you to research. Here is one that I found just searching: http://teachsoap.com/index.html Good Luck.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Thanks for all who responded to my question of soap recipes. I am wondering if I can just use oils I currently have on hand to make a batch of soap. I carry sweet almond oil always. I read on a site that I can use vegetable oils and crisco shortening. Is there a way to make a soap using just vegetable oils and shortening along with my sweet almond oil? I am just looking to try my hand at the soap making and am looking for a fairly simple and inexpensive recipe to try. Thanks for all your help Charise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 > Hi Charise: Since you already have some almond oil, get some olive oil, it dosen't have to be the expensive kind, I get mine at the dollar store it is usually pomace 8 ounces for a buck. then get a bottle of chrisco and you are set to make soap. The sage has a great lye and water calculator. www.thesage.com Just go there and put in what kind of liquid that you are using and how many ounces of oils and it will give you the correct amount of lye and water to use.
