    • A Must-Have For Every Natural Soap Maker!

This book is an absolute gem for anyone who loves natural soap making, whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro! The author's passion for her craft shines through every page, with clear instructions, beautiful photography, and recipes that feel like they're straight from the heart. What I love most about this book is how approachable it is. The author breaks down the process in a way that’s easy to follow but still inspires creativity. You can tell she poured her soul into every detail, sharing not just recipes but also her knowledge and love for all-natural ingredients. It’s disheartening to see a single bad review because this book is truly a reflection of her dedication and expertise.

    • Best resource for natural, cold-process soap
Format: Paperback
I became interested in soapmaking after doing a ton of research on eczema. I decided to make natural soap to reduce the number of skin irritants for my family and me. Simi's book delivered exactly what I was looking for. This book is the best resource to cold-process soapmaking. It has instructions and information for beginners and more advanced techniques and recipes for folks with more experience under their belts. What I love: - Every recipe is natural, using all-natural ingredients like oils, butters, clays, and essential oils. There are no dyes, no fragrance oils, no lab-like ingredients. This is natural, cold-process soap with wholesome, natural ingredients. Other soapmaking books will use lots of dyes, colors and fragrance oils to make pretty-looking soaps. Soaps in this book are artistic and naturally beautiful. - These soap recipes have been tested and sold for years, so they're fine-tuned, perform well and have stood the test of time. - Simi offers free videos on YouTube that show how to make soaps, so they complement the recipes in the book. - Simi is responsive and attentive to the soapmaking community. She responded so graciously when I had a question about one of the recipes in her book. - She offers so many additional recipes you can buy on the Muddy Mint website, so your soap exploration can continue even after you master these recipes. I saw one negative review on here and don't feel like it's warranted. I'm deeply grateful to have this book & resource at home, and have already started making these recipes. ... show more

    • Best Soap Making Book Ever!
Format: Paperback
Of all the soap making books I’ve read ( which is an abundance) this is by far the best all around! From the presentation of the book, the graphic design elements, photography, even the introduction was interesting. This book is well written, fun, keeps your interest and extremely informative. It was put together so it flowed. Even the texture of the pages were pleasing. I wish I had found this book first, before spending a mint on all the others. The book is well priced for what it is, a wealth of knowledge. ... show more

Review Image by finnleyjane
Natural Soapmaking by Simi Khabra is a great book for beginners and pros alike. The recipes are fantastic. Also, and so important for all soapmakers, there is a ton of info about the properties of the different oils and butters and some fantastic essential oil blends to try and why they work. I have other soapmaking books and I find myself going back to this one over and over to try the recipes and get ideas and inspiration for my own. Definitely worth the purchase. ... show more
