i can't make soap

I've tried, but I simply can not make soap. Not even the melt and pour kind. It always just goes wrong. Even so, I tried again today. This time I got two actual pretty bars and about 2lbs of junky, glad nobody but family will see it soap.

I need to find someone who makes good handmade soap for the shop. I want someone who only uses essential oils, not fragrance oils. Even better someone who uses actual herbs for some of it.

I do make kick ass bath milks and we will be carrying some of those this spring. But not soap. At least not soap I made.

Soap is highly overrated... try beer.

Doesn't beer explode if you do it wrong? I can't make soap, I don't know if I'm ready to venture into things that explode.

on the other hand, I do like beer...
