There’s a new convention in town!

The Corrupted Cog, May 9-10
Coppertank Event Center, 504 Trinity Street

I am looking forward to being involved with this brand new convention. Steampunk is a lot of fun for me; I love the aesthetic and the people who do it. So I’m excited about the upcoming Corrupted Cog event in downtown Austin.

It’s going to be at the Coppertank Event Center, which is a fabulous venue–I’ve never worked in it in any capacity but I’ve attended events there before, and it’s always a blast; the space is versatile, large enough to accommodate us all, small enough that a casual visitor can see everything without wearing him or herself out.

So if you don’t already have plans for the 9th and 10th of May, stop by and see the new line of soaps!

All soaps are glycerin soaps! Glycerin is a natural byproduct of the saponification process, and is naturally contained in the oils and fats used to make soap. However, large soap manufacturers extract the glycerin from soaps and use it for the more profitable enterprise of making nitroglycerin and other products.

True transparent bars (clear glycerin soaps) have their glycerin content raised by boiling the soap base in alcohols and sugars before curing. This makes an extraordinarily low Ph and mild soap that is good for the skin, but it also dissolves easily–don’t leave these in a pool of water!
