I have been making soap for many years and love to find new sources of information. Anne has always been a great source for everything soapmaking. She offers excellent advice and busts a few myths too. This is a great book for beginners but advanced soapmakers will also find value in it too. It is recommended by the Handcrafted Soap and Cosmetic Guild. As a HSCG member, I agree the book is a valuable resource to have.
