How to make scented soy wax candles at home

 Who doesn't love a good candle? You use candles to scent your home or office, to unwind or even to take away smells of food and cigar or cigarette smoke. But have you thought of trying your hand at making your own candles? It's super easy and fun for the whole family. There are easy accessible kits at both your local department and craft stores, see this episode here , where I used a candle making kit from Walmart! With kits you can not control the type of wax you have but you can definitely get the wax you need and that I personally prefer from a craft section from the discount department stores or from the craft store online or in store. First, you need soy wax, eight ounce candle tins, candle wicks, color, fragrance, glue dots or a glue gun and glue sticks ( I prefer the latter )...all these items are very affordable. Once you have everything you need, you're going to measure out one pound which is about sixteen ounces. This will give you three 8 ounce candles. The math...

How To Get 1000 Views Cold Process Soap

Are you a YouTuber? If you are, then you know that every single last one of us wants to hit 1000 views on our video uploads; whether it be within the first hour or over the course of the first 48 hours of our video being posted, going viral is always in the back of our minds and it all starts with 1000 views! In this video, I designed a soap that I thought would not only smell delicious but be so funny you couldn't help but be tickled by the sight of it. The concept behind it is all those gurus and influencers on YouTube telling you they are going to show you how to get 1000 views, subscribers FAST! Most of the time their words don't really help because with anything, as with Youtube consistency is key! So in true BodyGarbage fashion I decided to play on this and give you, my reader and viewer a chance to REALLY get 1000 views FAST! Giving off heavy notes of blueberries, melon, and vanilla; the Sex in the Shower Fragrance Oil by Wholesale Supplies Plus is super vibrant an...

Lavender Soap Flowers | Cold Process Soap Making

Lavender Artisan Soap 2018 I don't know about you, but when I think about anything Lavender, I think of soothing, relaxation and rest! Lavender is one of those flowers/buds or essential oils that take you to the next level of existence; although it is definitely an acquired scent and not everyone loves it, you can not deny the effect it has over the mind and body. Said to be the only essential oil that is safest to use on newborns, how could you go wrong with that? Lavender Flowers 2019 When coming up with a floral soap collection for Spring, I could not leave Lavender out of the bunch. Whether you like the way they smell or not, you have to admit they are some beautiful botanical works of art. Lavender can be used for many things, included but not limited to, healing salves, calming balms, lotions and bath oils, bath bombs the list goes on. This year I wanted to kick it up a notch instead of just a boring old purple soap...the usual right!? I encourage y...

Since people found out there was a leaf that could be smoked and would give you a feeling of euphoria and relaxation, they have been rolling joints and lighting bongs.

This cannabis inspired cold process soap, is made with CBD Oil from Bluebird Botanicals , Super Sparkle Iridescent Glitter and Hemp Fragrance from Wholesale Supplies Plus, Green Vibrance and Neutral Gray Micas and Titanium Dioxide from Nurture Soap .

The Way of Color | Avatar : The Way of Water inspired cold process soap

The Way of Color is a soap collection solely inspired by the movie, Avatar: The Way of Water. It was a magnificent movie with lots of color and the most interesting looking creatures. The action and the graphics were top notch and you just can't forget about all the gorgeous water scenes. With that, inspiration took and I got to work on one of the most color collections I have ever put together; aside from making a 3 tier birthday cake ( SEE FIRST VIDEO HERE ), starting with the right bar soap.  When creating this soap in particular, I wanted you, the buyer, to feel where I was coming from and what I meant by "The Way of Color" being the name of this collection and the correlation with the Avatar movie. I wanted it to be vibrant but also sea-like, it needed color and lots of it. Colors that would pop and make the eyes excited. Once we got the perfect colors, we needed the best, most mouth watering scent to make your tastebuds excited. I concocted a scent blend of citruse...
