Amazon Review By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Soapmaker: Tips, Techniques & Recipes for Luxurious Handmade Soaps
This was the first soap-making book that I bought and it has really inspired me to make soap not just once but over and over again! The directions for each step of soapmaking are simple, clear and not at all condescending. There are many wonderful ideas and recipes for basic cold-process soaps as well as translucent (glycerin) soaps, gel soaps, shampoos, etc. I really liked how this book has so many recipes for re-batching/hand-milling soap. Discussion and reference on lye, colorants, scents, & cosmetic properties of additives are very well written and easy to understand. This book is an excellent springboard for the first time soapmaker!
