Quiero empezar a vender a tienditas, sé que necesito un permiso de la cofepris y así, pero pues, antes de empezar a gastar en permisos, me gustaría "calar" si sí hay futuro

Vivo en una ciudad pequeña

Qué problemas pudiera haber? Podrían multar a las tienditas? Podrían multarme a mí?

Si quiero formalizarme, pero primero quiero hacer la prueba

(very small recipe to test, I heat it in a very small double boiler)

Recipe

Oils (never made this mix before)

(80%) palm oil - - - - - - - - - - 56 grams / 1.98 oz

(10%) stearic acid - - - - - - - 7 grams / 0.25 oz

(10%) coconut oil, 92deg -- 7 grams / 0.25 o

Lye water 1:1 (first time this ratio)

Lye (NAOH) - - - - 9.91 grams / 0.35 oz

Water - - - - - - - - - 9.91 grams / 0.35 oz

Oils were at like 160°F (71°C), lye at 148°F (64°C)

I didn't even have to stick blend, I just used a spoon and a rubber spatula, it saponified(?) quite fast I think I had to mix like 30 times at most?

What's your opinion, did it saponify/trace?

If it didn't, how could I know?

Most of my other recipes are more normal 😅

​

Distilled water - 1000 grams

carbopol 940 - 1 heaping tbsp

Triethanolamine - 10 ml

Pure glycerin tsp (3 g)

Original recipe said to use (but i can't get it easily at all) methyl paraben 1.5g

Do you really there is a big important difference between the look of plain cold and hot process soaps?

(I mean soaps without swirls nor anything like that, plain solid colors)

I've seen that true soaps shouldn't be used as shampoos, but then I also find many recipes by people that *seem* knowy (but they don't have formal studies to back it up)

What would happen if I made hot process castile soap with 0% superfat and added oil?

Would it be oily soap or would it fine?

Would _selecting which oil doesn't saponify_ have any benefit at all? Like could I do it with jojoba as the _later added superfat_?

Is this true?

What would you recommend to do so?

Supongamos que tengo la marca "Oso bailarin' (es un ejemplo únicamente), y tengo Instagram, facebook, etc con publicaciones usando el nombre y logo

Eso me protegeria?

Can I make my "normal" hot process soaps and remelt them once they've been "fully saponified"?

Or should I add stuff like dyes, coffee grounds, etc after it has transformed into the gel phase?

​

I want to make lip balms, what can I use to flavor them?

​

So far I know I've to use "oil based" flavors so they mix

​

I can get the 1 dram versions, but some have these after their names

​

Natural

Oil

Flavor

Natural oil

Natural flavor

​

Should I use only the ones that say oil, or is any okay?

​

e.g.

Banana cream flavor

Lime oil natural

Blueberry natural flavors
