You can also check with www.essentialdepot.com for lye. I know they often run sales on carrier oils and they will give you a free container of lye with your order.

Shari Lewis replied to the discussion 'Recommend spots for purchasing lye'"Good point, Susan! There are no chemical supply companies close to me, so my brain automatically goes to the shipping options. :)"

I would rather buy a few bags of it as we did last time and we make a lot of soap and shampoo bars. But some of the recommendations I appreciate but they are for beads. Beads are just lye…"
