 Rating: - Simplicity is the key hereSimplicity is what I appreciate the most in this book. The author went straight to the essence of what making soap is all about and for a beginner like me that exactly what I needed for a good start. With the elements that you learn from this book you can build your basement for soap making and then there are other books that she recommends where you can find more detailed elements...I got the books that she recommended and now I feel that I have a solid understanding of this craft. I cannot wait ... Read More Rating: - The Elements of Soap!My initial goal focused on making soap scented with specific essential oils such as grapefruit and mint. I tried the melt-and-pour method, which was easy, worked well and resulted in decent scented soap. However, the soap was not of the high quality for which I was looking. Setting out to make cold-pressed soap I bought a copy of Watson's book. Anne's Shea Butter Soap is the first soap I attempted and it turned out fantastic! In fact, this is the most luxurious soap I have ever used and am now ... Read More Rating:  - No nonsense kind of bookThis is a to-the-point kind of book. The author provides you with valuable information, but she only has so many pages to do that with. The information is good, basic information, all that you need to get you started making soap. The Shea butter supreme recipe is quite nice and so are the other recipes offered. Its focus is on the cold process method. What I liked most is that the author made you feel that making the soap is something that can be achieved. She exercises ... Read More Rating: - Smart (and easy!) SoapmakingI just finished creating my first batch of soap using this book. I was nervous, but determined, after reading Anne Watson's step-by-step manual to get a batch done before Christmas. I ordered/bought supplies, pre-read and followed the instructions, and was done in about an hour! Ms. Watson's experience shines through this small book, with plenty of Q and A's and tips to help out the most novice of soap-makers (like me). I felt totally in control, followed the easy (yet necessary) precautions, and ... Read More Rating: - Best soap making book for beginnersI highly recommend this book to anyone considering making, or is beginning to make, soap. It is clearly written in a comfortable informative style. The book covers equipment you'll need, has diagrams and clear step-by-step instructions for your very first batch. The ingredients are listed in pounds and grams (so you don't have to convert anything). The recipes ALL WORK! There is information on how to make your own recipes, types of moulds to use, make your own moulds, and how to gift wrap your soaps. ... Read More
