    After reading loads on hm cold process soap I would love to have a go.
    Just wondering what other recipes people may have for other things like:
    toiletries: shampoo, bubble baths, bath bomb etc
    cleaning: cream cleanser, polish, air fresheners (I already am a converted stardrops girl !)
    beauty; face creams, foot and body scrubs , f, mud face masks etc - I want to get off the molton brown and elemis , liz earle blah, blah

    looking for stuff a bit special ie with shea butters and nice oils in . I must spend a fortune and im sure it must be achievable to make it yourself, but looking for something that can be kept in pots and not in the fridge ie strawberry face mask, made with mashed up strawberries.
    Thanks for your help in advance
