Hi guys! I started my soap business in the US, but due to a too-good-to-pass-up opportunity, we are moving back to the UK. My husband is British and we lived there very briefly about 7 years ago. Anyway, I keep seeing mention of getting my soaps/bombs/body butters/etc. tested. Other sites say only products meant to stay on the skin, such as body butters, need to be tested. I don't want to make a huge mistake restarting my business over there, so is there any guidance y'all could give? Thanks in advance!

There are some UK soapers over on Soap Making Forum. I don't know if there are any here, b/c I don't think BB ships to the UK. The UK rules are different for FO manufacturers and sellers as well as the rules for soap sellers, so you may need to find some UK soap supply companies and get the info from them.

But, from what I can tell, it's a HUGE PITA.

I would contact your local governing body like a city hall and ask.

hello I am a soaper in the UK . Please don't worry too much about becoming a legal soap maker in the UK its simple . To have your soap recipe checked by a chemist cost approx. £179 but that includes 8 variables .

Scott Grainger is a good one or try the soap kitchen UK site ,or Justasoap they are a soap supplier and if you look through the site they give you detail of how and who to contact . Hope that helps .
Keep on :lol: soaping
