I'm an idiot or...:

I had this in my wish list and my husband bought it for me as a gift. I was thrilled...and then I started reading. And it didn't make sense. So I read it again. Then a 3rd time. Then I made my husband read it. I was beginning to think I was a bigger idiot than I ever imagined!

Liquid soap making:

This is a good book for learning how to make liquid soap but it is not for a new soapmaker. An intermediate soapmaker will have some trouble following the directions in this book as some of the information is somewhat scattered. It is a good book for getting some basic liquid soapmaking background but there are no clear step by step instructions. You will have to read the book and develop your own routine procedure.

A Gem:

Beautiful color photographs and clear, concise instructions. This book would be appropriate for a novice or experienced soapmaker as well as someone who is simply interested in how things are made. There are plenty of recipes for those soapmakers who want to dive into hot processing.
