the recipe I used is from the book "the best natural homemade soaps" by Mar Gomez.
4 oz mineral water, 3.5 oz lemon juice, 3 oz lye, 1.5 lb olive oil, .35 oz beeswax, lemon zest and .18 oz lemon essential oil.
where I know I made my mistake is using Real Lemon Juice from the bottle...forgetting that I should not use any that are from concentrate.
when trying to cut it just flaked instead and is rock hard. I wanted to check to see if it is still salvageable for home use or should I toss it and start again...I plan on making more anyway but just don't want to throw out the chunks I have if they are usable. Also the book contains recipe's for Orange and Lemon soap, is it possible to combine the 2 and add another batch substituting Grapefruit? a three citrus soap :) ??

Hello. Im wanting to start soap making... however ive no idea where to start... would it be best to start of with MP? Of so where could I get my potions :) With regards to using essential oils would it just be the same type you would use in an oil burner? Also I am concerned about making soap that is not drying to the skin... I know its a lot to answer... Rebekah
