I have read about people using MP soap and putting them into tubes
like large lip balm tubes or deoderant type tube. You don't need a
soap dish. Just use and put the cap back on when you're done, no mess
of a liquid soap and you can fly with it no problem. Good for camping
and situations when you need soap and there isn't any, or you just want
your own soap. I think it would work better not as a bathing soap, but
as an emergency hand soap. Only yesterday I was at a restaurant and
their bathroom was out of soap. Hmmmm… what a great time for a small
travel soap in a tube. I just received an order of solid lotion tubes
and small deoderant tubes. I think I might try this.

Testing the recipes so far
So, I've been testing out my different soaps. Hmmm… you know I
don't feel too much difference in any of them. So far they all seem to
lather pretty well and I don't feel too much difference in their
conditioning properties. But then I don't have particularly dry skin. I
don't know what I was really expecting, I mean soap is a wash off
product. But I was hoping that I would feel more of a difference
between the soap recipes. I'm still in the very beginning of the soap
testing so I have many more to test out. If I don't feel too much
difference then I suppose that I can go with the most simple of
recipes. I'm kind of feeling bound right now. I know I shouldn't make
any more soap until I've determined the best recipes, but I have all
these colorants and fragrances just waiting to be used. It's kind of
hard to ignore them. I have been dabbling with some melt and pour to
satisfy the soaper in me, but it's not the same. Melt and pour is a
different animal, I can still use colorants and fragrances and do things
I can't do with cold process soapmaking, but the outcomes are totally
different. Not better or worse, just different.
