In a bowl mix together baking soda with cream of tartar. In a jug mix 10 mls of liquid castile soap and about 30 mls of water. Slowly pour into the powders and mix with a fork until you have a paste. Add more water if you need to. Add 1 ml of peppermint essential oil and stir to combine. Store in an airtight container and use to clean kitchen and bathroom sinks, baths and toilets. This is an awesome cleaner and smells divine with the peppermint oil Pauline From: soapcraft-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:soapcraft-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Gina Roberts Sent: Friday, 16 July 2010 2:26 PM To: soapcraft@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [soapcraft] Re: INTRODUCTION I also use all my products for home cleansing but Pauline would you share a little about your 'like jiff' product as this is something i have not yet mastered and would like to.

Glad to know that reheating worked for you. I’m addicted to making soap via Cold process and I’m also into making lotions. I’d also like to get into natural cleaning products as well.

I have had a few probs with the lotions but my last batch has been sorted and it is smooth and thick. Soap making is a challenge and I hope to get more into it but lotion making and natural cleaning products are my first preference. Pauline Rouse TOKOROA
