To either make soap or to remove packaging from soap and give it as a gift is ILLEGAL unless you hold the relevent safety assessments for the items carried out by a chartered chemist. ALL cosmetic items must also be labelled correctly with full INCI names for ingredients, batch numbers and you must keep a product information file detailing all relevent information.
If you do not do any of the above you are breaking the law and could be prosecuted - even if just giving it to your mum for christmas!
Sorry- I have not posted in a while- it is my adventure with reindeer but I've not had much to say since I got my bits and pieces stock piled
I have just received my EU safety assessment so soon I will be making my own christmassy soaps- and am now totally legal for selling them on
And of course any other soaps I choose to make 
As soon as my soaps are done I will post pics of the soap- and then pics of my finished Reindeer.

So easy to make, though if I do it again, I will use small soaps! the boxed imperial leather for Dad was much easier to wrap than the bag of animal soaps for SIL or wedge of Lush soap for Mum!fran-o0
