I'm back from the conference, and joyously exhausted!
Wow, that was one heck of a conference in Las Vegas through the Handmade Soap & Cosmetics Guild! I presented two demos of facial moisturizers to a room of at least 100 people - and more during the first one - which was so much fun and resulted in the hashtags #ducks are evil and #don'tputmentholonyourbum, so you know a good time was had by all. I hope those of you who received samples enjoyed them.
I'll be posting the recipes here shortly as a free PDF as well as a paid e-zine that's almost an e-book on the ingredients we used.
I met Kevin Dunn - and he knew who I was as a fellow columnist at Handmade magazine! Squee! - and sat in on a seminar he taught about how to determine the experimental saponification value of oils, which has inspired me to make some CP soap soon! (Yeah, I know, right" Me, making soap" Who woulda thunk it") He spoke about how to test pH in soap without a meter, and even said that one isn't necessary! (I'll share more about all of this shortly, too! I was so inspired!)
I met Kenna Cote of Modern Soapmaking, the one who helped me set up my Patreon account. She was just as awesome as I thought she would be!
It was great to meet my blog readers and Patreon subscribers. Thank you all so much for your kindness, support, and enthusiasm! I had such a great time speaking to you as we met in the halls and conference rooms, and I look forward to interacting with you more here in the comments or by e-mail.
A huge than...
