    I LOVE your very understandable instructions and recipes! I do however have a question about how you know how much of certain additives to include per recipe, ex: powdered clays, silk fibers. I do realize that FO and EO have recommendations from manufacturers websites so that isn't as confusing to me. When your adding more than one (ex: clay) how much is the right amount OR how much is too much? Is there a calculator for additives?? Thank you so much!

    • @EllenRuthSoap
      @EllenRuthSoap День тому

      Yes, it can be confusing with the "additives". I've found that a soap can hold a good amount of extra ingredients. I find that adding 1tsp per lb of oil for each additive is good and I have never overloaded a soap, and I've added much more than that.... I don't know of a calc for additives, just trial and error..

    Hi is the ingredient quantity list here somewhere? I dont understand how/why we are measuring the 2 liquid oils in weight oz. instead of fluid oz. I did it per your verbal instructions by weight and it took ALOT to weigh 11 oz. it came out like a runny lotion, even after adding 3x the powder to try and solidify it again. Even Added more shea, which caused gritty... im a hot mess here. Nobody else questioned this? Im sorry, what am I missing? Thanks, Laurie

Anyway, I heard that there is something called a serum candle, and it's different from a massage candle. Honestly, I don't know whether there is a difference or not. I also saw people using just butter and oils to make the candle instead of wax. I don't know how it might turn out. I would love to see you doing more projects on massage candles, please. It's wonderful. Thank you.❤

It can become tedious and no longer enjoyable if you have a ton of demand. Also, could you teach us how to make and print labels from Online Labels and how to set it up for a printer. That's one thing I just can't master. LOL. I can create the logo but, can't figure out how to print it. Thank you so much for being such a great teacher.

      Summer heat is always a shipping challenge... Bubble wrap does help.

    Hi Ellen, thank you for sharing this wonderful creation. Does a person need a special license, say a cosmetic license, to sell lotion candles. I make soap but would love to branch out to other things but I don't know what items need a cosmetic license.

      If you're in the US, you don't need a special license. Just make sure your labels are up to code.🕯️

    Oh my goodness!!! Thank you so much for posting this fantastic how-to! 👏👏👏 I had been searching for massage candle vessels to no avail for a while now! Great idea to use these glass coffee cups. Perfection! Great tutorials and love your presentations, very clear, thorough and so pleasant to watch! 💖
