Scrub Recipe Trial Continued - New Recipe!

If you have not read my long post about 3 very different recipes I got from various websites, please go back to this link first: Previous Sugar Scrub Post

This is a continuation of my sugar scrub recipe testing because I recently found another good one and got to try it out!
#4 with cetyl alcohol

10% emulsifying wax
5% cetyl alcohol
5% stearic acid
20% butter
56% liquid oil

1% Vitamin E
2% fragrance or essential oil
1% Preservative

This is my cheap double boiler setting: one silicone cup in another silicone cup, fill water in between then microwave it up slowly.

 I let it cool down in the fridge to buttery, then beat it up.

 Then I used 40% of the above mixture and 60% of sea salt.

Hey, it's 4th of July!

 I'm really liking this one.  I tested it in the sink, feel very promising!  It's looking kind of runny like lotion at first, then I cooled it down some more in the fridge, it turned muddy!  I think it needs to be tweaked a little for summer as the room temperature is high enough to melt.

Everyone, have a great Independence Day weekend!

Let's Hang It Up!

Most of people find it annoying that their soap does not dry well in the shower.  And that resulted in slimy soap next time you hit the shower.  Soap on a rope is not a new idea, it's usually done with stand up 3D molds.  What to do if you only have log and slab molds?  I'm cheap, buying multiple 3D molds is not on my to do list.  I started thinking what to do with only what I have.  Without breaking my bank, I went to one of those home improvement stores and bought some cheap cloth hanging nylon ropes.  It is just white in color, nothing fancy.  I was not about to spend more than $1 per piece to buy online!  So here's my Sea Moss Spa on a rope!

 

This is where I got my inspiration from (soap on a rope from etsy), but thought the shape is less than ideal.

This way you can buy a couple of those cheap small suction cup hooks and hang it up!  Oh and you can do his and hers and no one fights on which soap to use, just get your own!
