I am going with my first attempt. my second was better but the two purples ended up being to close in color.

My husband says he is going to buy one every year. He never does

I sent my friend Dean Wilson’s you tube video and he made me a log splitter!

I didn't stick blend the second batch at all. I used a whisk and that was it.

I don't know how to go much thinner. Maybe I didn't elevate it enough. I am using the Nurture TS mold.

This is a tough challenge. I can't get the soap more liquid, on my second attempt I didn't even stick blend! I am still not getting shimmy blobs, just blobs.

My second challenge was better but, two of the colors are too close and you can't really see. I will have to stick with try one and go for fugly this month. I really don't want to go for a third attempt. I have some ideas floating for holiday presents that I want to get done.

I cut my first attempt at this month’s challenge and made a second attempt directly 😂

I have all the oils and butters you list. I just hesitate to use my higher priced ingredients on multiple attempts. If I do make another attempt I might try the sunflower And some shea. Thanks for the advice.

I had a soap accelerate on me last weekend. I know the FO I used doesn't accelerate, but sometimes soap does what it wants. Don't be discouraged by the "not perfect" batches. On my soaping journey I have learned to just roll with it because no matter what, it will get you clean, and your...

If you post it here you're more likely to get feedback. I just made my first attempt today. I made OO and CO soap so had slow moving batter. I also used a 30% lye concentration. I did add sugar and coconut milk because I am not a fan of high OO soap. I mostly whisked and only hit it with...

The nurture basic tall skinny is amazing. I bought one a while ago and I love it. I have the silicone one without the box and I couldn't CPOP because I held the sides in with canned pickles to keep it from bowing.

1. earlene - Thank you, szaza. I've been meaning to try this again. Didn't turn out so well the first time. 2. MarnieSoapien - I'm not tall or skinny but I think I can make a shimmy! 3. bookreader451 - I tried this before but, I definitely need a second go!

Congratulations everyone. This was a really fun challenge, and thank you Earlene for hosting,

I use powdered sugar. Since I started master batching lye I just mix it with the additional liquid.

Good luck and welcome to the obsession.

So I made my soap an the bottom was pretty cool too. So I am posting the bottom of my slab looks like clouds But still marbled.

Entering early because I am going away with the girls! we rented a house in the Finger Lakes in NY for some wine tasting! So this is my marble soap you can see the inspiration and the result. I liked the bottom too and will post that in the challenge thread. The scent is blue agave.

I bought a light box from Amazon. It was pretty inexpensive and not the greatest by any means but, it works for my once a month soap photos. I also use hubby's iphone 11. It has an amazing camera.

I made one batch and I am sticking with it. Until my friend finishes my log splitter I will hold off an slabs. I can‘t cut straight to save my life.
