It's like that for just about every cold process soap maker as well ... once they make a successful batch. This book is designed for just that. Whether you're wanting to create your very first soap, or want more information on the whole process, I've got you covered. THE BASICS has you creating cold process soap from everyday household items and all the information needed to jump in immediately. No technical speak; just relaxed & clearly laid out step by step instructions. If you're worried about using lye, this book will help alleviate those fears and bring you a clear understanding of safe handling & practices without all the off-putting dire warnings you find elsewhere. Zen is what we're aiming for here. THE REST is the in-depth section that encapsulates the science behind cold process soap, but written with the same Zen attitude as the beginner section. No matter your skill level, this section will have you understanding oil properties & SAP values, creating recipes for the soap you most want to make, and even water discounting like the pro's!

Author Information

Lee Parker was born in the Hunter Valley of Australia and grew up always knowing she was different. She moved to the Northern Rivers and flitted from craft to craft, always trying new things, never settling. And then one day she found cold process soap making. Her true passion. Her Zen as she likes to call it. She now lives in a little seaside village where she makes YouTube videos of all the fabulously colourful soap she creates, and listens to Kpop while writing her ridiculously long romance novel that never seems to end.
