Make this book your first and last stop in learning to make milk soap. I bought other soap making books besides Anne’s two (Smart Soapmaking and Milk Soapmaking), but I put the others away in storage and only keep Anne’s out for constant reference. Save yourself some money and time (and confusion) and get these two straight-forward, myth-busting, easy-to-read, and easy-to-understand books if you want to learn to make soap. The recipes are simple with easy-to-acquire ingredients. Keep it simple, keep it fun!

I am so glad I got this book. I just got interested in soap making and needed a book to take me step by step in the process. This book does just that. Believe me it is a great book. Clear and detailed.

This is the first book I bought on making Cold Processed soap making. I was able to learn from it and still use the recipes in this book. I am glad I bought this book as it helped me become a soap maker. It gives you the basics.

I started making soap with Anne’s Smart Soapmaking. After becoming comfortable with the basic process of soapmaking, I decided I wanted to expand my horizons and learn about milk soaps. This book does not disappoint. It’s written in the same easy to follow manner as her first book…non-intimidating, very clear, very simple.
Since I’ve started soapmaking, I’ve purchased books from other authors and I must say that if I would have started with those books, I probably would not have made a batch of soap at all, as a few that I have just don’t seem to have the easy to follow instructions like this book has.
Just a note, you don’t have to start with Smart Soapmaking. This book is geared toward the beginner just as the other book is. So if you’ve never made soap before and you’re more interested in milk soaps, then this book will have you making beautiful milk soaps in no time at all.
