Where can I find a budget for soap making start ups?


you can't really find a budget. Look up the web sites you want to buy your supplies from and create a list of what you need in order to create your first products and make your first sale. I hope I answered the right question and it helps.

where are the best recipes for making soap and hand made cosmetics?


where are the best recipes for making soap and hand made cosmetics?

I just did an Internet search and found the following sites:

Teach Soap: http://www.teachsoap.com. It's got more than just recipes for bar soaps; it has recipes for bath fizzes, lotions, creams, and scrubs. I'll be bookmarking this one!

Castile Soap recipes: http://www.millersoap.com/castile.html. If you prefer not to use animal products in your soap, this site has recipes that are entirely vegetable-based.

Miller Soap: http://www.millersoap.com. This is the home page for the site I wrote about above. It has recipes using animal fats, plus where you can find ingredients. It also has notes on traditional versus modern soap-making methods.

http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Prairie/8088/beauty.html

This site has recipes for make-up, deodorants, skin care, dental hygiene, and much more!

http://users.resist.ca/~kirstena/pagehomemadecosmetics.html: This site is very similar to the one I listed above, but has some explanations why certain products are used.

http://www.wildroots.com/cosmetic.htm: I liked that this site had some references for additional readings at the bottom of the page.

http://www.makingcosmetics.com/: Here you can purchase containers and supplies for making your own cosmetics.

Good luck! These sites look like a lot of fun; I may have to start making my own supplies, too!

Description

The My Weigh KD-8000 scale is the perfect scale which includes a removeable Protective LCD Display Cover (as well as three Soft Protective LCD Display Covers) which helps protect against many weighing messes such as recipes, candle-making, spills & more! Not many scales in its class can match up to the reputation & features of the KD-8000; the biggest change from the KD-7000 to the KD-8000 is the new Baker's Math/Percentage Weighing function. This has been a long-standing way for bakers to weigh their ingredients in proportion to their main ingredient (flour). This feature is the preferred method for bakers for the simple fact that it eliminates messy math that comes with weighing in teaspoons, cups, etc. - instead you deal with just percentage. Also, measuring this way allows for you to make as little or as much as you want easier. Now that's the easiest weigh to go about baking, isn't it? This is a MUST-HAVE for any aspiring or professional baker!

Features

  • Improved weighing capacity
  • A strong, removeable Stainless-Steel Platform
