about layers and question about glycerine adding

[eucalypta]

Hello experts,

I would like to create a "gradient" effect. Eg. from blue to white or green to yellow.
Any hints on how to achieve this? (CP)

Is it possible to add glycerine to a part of the soap (CP) to create a semi-transparant substancy?
If so, when do I add the glycerine? At trace?
Do I have to do a discount on the water-lye amount?

thanks in advance for your cooperation.

I have a picture of a layered soap in this thread, further down there is an explanation of the method. Personally I would not put glycerine in CP

Thank you Etelka : that's a beautiful soap you made (vanilla)!

What I would like to achieve is that contrast between the two layers would be more diffuse, like one layer blending into the other. The top layer kinds of sinks into the underlaying layer.

As you may have noticed I put the question in the disforum too. I hoped for more reactions.:wink:

Thank you for the time you took to look into the matter - I do appreciate this and I think you're a great soaper.
