Hi!
I have been soaping for about a month and experienced seized soap for the first time. I mixed lye and oils at about 35C, shared soap for three colours and then added fragrance oil and well it was strawberry and in supplier home page there was said that the accelration is none and i thought i was safe and can do swirls But i was wrong, i dont know maybe there was something wrong in my recipe too (althought i have been using this same recipe in my vanilla soap and with this i managed to do really pretty swirls), but yes the reaction was pretty quick - it was liked smashed potatoes I felt at the beginning that it was not good day for soaping and that somethings gonna happen, but i still eanted to soap So i just pressed soap into the mold and i was really dissapointed.
Nex day i cut soap and here are the pictures. Some of the FO was goming out of the soap and the texture is ugly, but i dont know what to do with this soap. Maybe just gonna let it stay
