Thanks for the link, Lyn! I’ve always been tempted to purchase those large blocks of French olive oil soap but wondered about cutting them down. Very useful post by Deborah!

I'm happy to get the big bars of Kiss My Face from Puritan Pride. They don't require cutting and are large enough to last a while.

I buy Olivia 125 gm bars @ £1.19 at Holland and Barrett, so £3.00 for 600gms from Wingham is a good buy, but with shipping cost at £4.50, only good if you're ordering other items.

Heating soap starts the melting process. I have melted gallons of sop over the years. The best thing about that is it brought me to felting.

What's that American soap that goes crazy when you put a bar in the microwave? Is it a floating one?

It's a whipped soap so its full of air.
