Not even! Unless I come up with a breakthrough way of making the most tricked out VDH soap, then probably not. But hey, you never know

Im sure bacon fat melted in VDH soap would be great for the skin! I dont know about the smell though... I may actually try aqua velva.. Will let you know if you have a cut for sure

Thanked: 485You can use a mouliner I think they're called. Those things that you use for grinding meat. They make a nice grated heap. You can then mix them together easily and add oils and stuff. I started researching the base for soaps, and found out a bit about tallow, lanolin, etc. .
For now I'm sticking to buying my natural soaps, so far I've used Madame Scodioli, Mike's and Edwin Jagger (Edwin Jagger's not handmade, just 99% natural).
Once I ground up Windsor soap and added a heap of Proraso Musgo Real and Glycerine to it and squished it into my scuttle. Worked a treat! (pictures)...
I love a nice Überlather too made in a bowl.
Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?

Thanked: 0I plan on making some soap, if it all goes well and I can get a really nice scent, I'm thinking of perhaps selling some!
