Okay - who has compared the regular base (naturals only!) to the low sweat?

Yes, I get it - the low sweat doesn't sweat, or at least less, like the name says.

But what about other differences?
Lather?
Hardness?
General feel?

thanks in advance for your help and opinion
 
I asked this question the last time I was in my soap store and I was told the low sweat could turn a bit cloudy

Hope that helps a bit!
 
I purchased some low sweat base from BB and I think it was just about the same as their clear base with the more natural ingredients, except it was a little darker.

However, it did sweat after I added color and fragrance. Now I do live on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, where it is very humid, but it has been indoors in the air condition. However, I did not have to be as careful wrapping it (other melt and pour will sweat if there is a nano hole in the wrap it would sweat). However, its probably has more to do with where I live. I did like the soap though, but the price and the shipping...ouch.
