Wow!!! Beautiful soaps!

I always put a little pop of ultramarine blue to deepen or hot pink if I want it brighter. Last night I used nurtures purple vibrance with no adjusting and it turned out awesome!

Thanks obsidian!!! Yes! It is abuse lol! But it sells so well!

Okay. Thank you! I will wait 72 hours before testing again. It is beer soap. I am not sure what is causing the weeping because I usually hot process my beer soap and it is ready to cut not zappy after 24 hours and there has never been any weeping. I used soap calc and followed it exactly so I...

I made a beer soap last night and it started weeping. I figured it was just the fragrance and would be absorbed. We are not quite to the 24 hour mark so I don't know if I should wait longer? But I zap tested it and it was very zappy. I'm wondering if I should prepare to rebatch or if I am...

Okay great! There is no zap, I will just give it time :)

It is a BB blend and it is very VERY light on the cilantro. Just smells like a big delicious chunk of pineapple :D "I meant to do that!" :D thanks

I made a new soap and there is a tiny bit of glycerin weeping out of it. Does this mean it is ruined? Is that what "glycerin rivers" means. It is only a small amount.

I have an acrylic loaf mold. Would I just a brush it on there or would I need to make a cast of the inside?

Oh :D that makes sense! Haha that is a great idea!

Nope. Purple is a beast that remains untamed by mean. Lol

Thank you :) I am happy with the results!

I have been eyeballing Kentish rain. Now I want it even more!

Looks lovely! Love the skinny bars. Or tall bars. Whatever they are called! It looks like a delicious milkshake :D This is brilliant!!! Thank you :D Just to make sure I understand, you use a soap to stamp your soap? Color me intrigued :)

Thanks for the help :) I did notice the TD was very lumpy so I didn't add it. I just didn't know if it may help.

I do think they look autumnal but her theme is like a Christmas candy land? So I was hoping for bright purple. I also think the brown turns out lovely but I wish I had prepared for it in this instance.

I did use a piping bag. It is a glycerin soap ball :) there party theme is. They larger really well and they don't fall apart. I can post a couple of pictures of the lather etc. once it cures a bit. I couldn't have asked for a better trace. Thanks for the tips. I will approach her with some...

That is what I figured. I made it last night before bed so I am now thinking it will get darker. I have vanilla stabilizer I just didn't even think to check if SPF had vanilla in it. She is my best friend and I am doing them for free. But I still want them to be nice because I think if people...

Oh! Thank you. I didn't even check for vanilla content. I will try both of those purples. Do you use TD to lighten the soap or just use the purple? That is good to know about the purple not showing up until saponification is complete. I just made it about 12 hours ago (finished it right before...

Oh those look awesome! Carrot and pumpkin are both on my list of soaps to try
