Soap withdrawal

I realize...I'm addicted to soap. Well which soaper isn't? After moving back to India (in September 2011) and having a sale and making a few batches of soap and dreaming of starting my own line of soaps, my husband broke the news to me!! We had to get back to Austria again for a few more months. Whaaat??

So here I am back in Austria. Packing up 13 kilos of soap in my bags was quite a task (had to throw away so many clothes of mine). Just couldn't leave behind any of my soaps, so I took the whole lot back to India. We will be here in Austria till the end of April and I don't want to throw away any more of my clothes, so I'm not going to soap for the next few months. It has been only 3 weeks since I got here and have serious soap withdrawal symptoms...LOL!! I don't want to give up on blogging and also want to keep this blog dedicated to something soap only. Let's hope I don't bore all you lovely people out there with my posts. :D

Here is the link to the article on my soaps published in the Yo!Vizag magazine in Dec 2011:

Thank you Petra! I am looking at certifications and suppliers who I will get in touch with once I am back home...till then it is still hard not to be making soap, but I will survive. :D
Warm greetings!!

Awwww, well its a blessing in disguise. Take your time to focus on the little things like the labels, the scents, price & costing. You can take the time to organise how you are going to come back with a bang. Enjoy Austria while you are there.

Thank you Sada! Yes there is a lot of things I am doing at this point. Since the climate is hot and humid in India I am leaning towards using and anti-oxidant to retard the speed of rancidity of oils. I have been getting in touch with suppliers and also looking for supplies. Here I am testing to see how the LUSH products work...just using it as a benchmark to compare and see where my products stand. So yes I am still staying connected to soap, though I am just not making them. Again...I think I will survive. :D
