Issue: #114 — Formulary Fest

We’re excited because this is our first Formulary issue, and we are sharing more formulas than ever before.
​Featuring formulas and tutorials for all kinds of products! 
Perhaps you like to try new formulas, or you want to try new ingredients or methods. Or this is all new to youso readymade formulas are appropriate. You might also be looking for a new product to add to the lineup.
​Regardless of the circumstances, we do like formulas and our writers were willing to provide them.
