Here is batch number 3. I really enjoy making soap!

This is 80% olive, 10% coconut and 10% castor. I added a small amount of lilac, probably not enough. The color is beautiful, though. I hope it will lighten just a hint after cure.

No wonder you enjoy making soap. Those are awesome.
 
Well, the colorant was nothing fancy. I used the liquid colorant from Hobby Lobby. 10 drops red per pound.

I made this with my three little girls in mind. They love pink.

Thanks for the kind remarks.

I have the same red I believe and would love to make that pink. Thanks for posting your amounts.

nice soap hp or cp?

Both! Actually, CP but my oils and lye were a little warm when I started and it hit trace FAST. Was really thick when I poured, if you could call it that.

It was just luck on the color. It looked a little lighter when I poured it.
