Conclusion to: I hope this makes you laugh

I would NOT recommend using the face peel in the previous post. It hurt so bad peeling that mess off. I peeled most of it then ended up getting in the shower to scrape the rest off. My face was really soft (and red) afterward. I don't think it removed any blackheads, but it did remove some hair. Maybe if I had put it on just a small area it would have worked. It could work as a wax maybe, but I've seen recipes w/o milk or gelatin that hopefully would smell better. I'm not sure why it ended up stinking so bad. I don't think I heated it too much, but maybe that's what happened. I do not believe I will be trying this recipe again! lol-I'd rather put an orbital sander on my face than use that. It would hurt about the same and stink less!

I hope this makes you laugh.

So, I decided to try this homemade face peel mask thing. It's 1T gelatin mixed with 1 1/2 T milk. I mixed it, microwaved it 10 seconds and applied it. Right away I noticed- it stinks! And the longer it is by my nose the more it smells like rotten milk. Then my husband informs me that gelatin is made from ground up pigs bones..yeah. and i got them smeared on my face.

New Soaps

This soap has peppermint from my very own garden! I love the way it turned out- my second attempt at a swirled look. The boys love the way it smells too, very minty.

This is a remilled soap that I added real milk and local honey to. :D Finally! I've been wanting a soap with real milk and honey in it... I used a soap mold I purchased and some old candy molds I had laying around (Blues Clues). They smell great too!
