A-huh! Thank you!! I wonder why my soap supply website didn't pick up IBM in my search when it's right there in the product title after searching for Isopropyl Myristate...

Looking into my foot balm recipe.

The weather is starting to warm up over this side of the planet, and my thongs are looking at me longingly (thongs = flipflops, I don't wear underwear on my feet! :lol:

) My heels are super dry and cracked (I've been lazy this month), and my current foot balm, while great for winter and the ability to wear socks to bed, doesn't soak in fast enough for summer. I put some on last night, and 15 minutes later when to walk on the wooden floors and slipped!

It's still in triple digits here so I know what you mean. I like to go barefoot except when I soap.

I even soap barefoot! Its a risk I take, I can't stand shoes in the house! I should probably buy some house shoes, but I'd rather spend my money on soap workshop do-dads.

Tisk, tisk heather!! I'm a hippy barefoot advocate, and I have a no shoes inside rule, but I have slippers / house shoes that i wear when soaping.

I don't think lye could burn through my callouses anyhow! :lol:

I'll have to get something... slippers are too darned hot, hate when my feet are hot!

I have the slippers that you just slip into. So they cover my toes and the top of my feet. My pants cover my heels... then again, a good lye spill on them might save my poor pumice stone a night or two! :lol:
