Book Reviews of Soapmaking for Fun & Profit: Make Money Doing What You Love! (For Fun & Profit)

Book Review: It's an ok book, not an ultimate soap making guide!
Summary: 2 Stars

I bought this book because I read the positive reviews. I should have read the negative ones also. The business information is good. My favorite part of this book is the part about essential oils and the saponification chart. This book is probably for those who don't have any knowledge about soap making. For me, there's nothing new. Much of the information is either very basic stuff or common sense. I've already read about all this on various soap making websites. I was expecting more information about different ingredients/additives. It would be nice if the author talked about the shelf life of different type of soap especially the ones that are made with fresh fruits and vegetables. Page 70 says, "See full-color of these finished soaps in the center of the book." Where are the photos?!? There's no photo! I was really looking forward to this book, and I'm very disappointed. I would say that this book gives you enough information to start out your own business, but not enough to create your own unique recipes. If you want to start out with some basic and simple soap projects, this book might be good for you. If you are looking for a good reference book for creating your own soap, don't buy it!
