We do trade price for larger orders and can offer a special 20% off for forum members if you use code TFF20 when ordering more than two soaps or a selection box

What’s all this about discount! I ordered a selection box for the current wife last night ! Hope it gets me in the good books, before she gets swamped with pet lambs in a month !

Appreciate the code. My hands always end up a bit of a mess in the winter interesting to see if your soap helps.

I have really dry skin and the milk soap keeps them clean and moistureised, I do try and wear gloves as well but I’ve never had a crack or even a dry patch since we started the soap

Anything to help stop hacks at lambing time !
How long have you been making soaps? Is it a family tradition.?

 

[Old Tip]

Not long really @Bill dog, we have a Jersey house cow and made cheese for a bit but you can’t sell it so decided to try soap and it’s been very popular. So we decided to make a proper job of it and see how it goes, it’s surprised me how good it is.

Nice to see some other members making soap! Bit of an obsession here too www.spasoap.co.uk Working on homemade salves just now but milk-based soap sounds interesting!

Handmade soap really is better for your skin - all sorts of stuff has to be added to factory soap to get it through the processing, and quite often the naturally-formed glycerine is separated out and sold.

We make soap from our Jersey cows milk, it’s amazingly good and I for one can vouch my hands have never been cleaner or softer.
It’s also palm oil free and made with scents that have a link to the farm. It’s interesting once you get into it what goes into some of the commercial soaps are actually not good ingredients.
If you fancy trying some @llamedos give me a shout or check out the website www.thesoapdairy.com
We sell on line and to local shops and the boss has just designed a special soap for hand washing woollens.
It’s a chemical process to make it and the recipes have to be licencensed before you can sell it. Any slight change in the ingredients or scent used can make a massive difference to how it sets and whether it hardens to quickly or not at all.

Ordered a selection box for Mrs Pine_guy for Valentine’s Day so I can try it out on my cracked hands [emoji6]

Do you just do solid soaps, or liquid ones too?

Just solid at the moment but started experimenting with moisturising bath bombs
