Does Wild Mtn. Honey discolor??
Did the Wild Mtn. Honey discolor?
I was just doing a batch of oatmeal milk and honey soap, used the wild mtn. honey fo. I had acheived light trace and was just stirring away. The batch had turned this absolutely lovely butterscotch pudding color, sortof light orangeish. I hadn't planned to color or anything, and I had actually never colored before, but was wanting to.
I had already added everything that you would think would accelerate trace, the honey, the FO, and the GSE. It wasn't really accelerating too fast so I though maybe I had some time to have some fun and I had just received some brown oxide a couple of days ago, which I though would go really awesome with the pretty butterscotch color, so I decided to try a swirl.
I ran downstairs, got the oxide, pulled out about a cup of soap, did my thing and got it into the mold in plenty of time. (Miracle!!!)
The swirl or marlble or whatever you might call it actually doesn't look too bad for my first attempt, but as I'm looking at it, I'm thinking, if this FO goes real dark, the marbling is just going to disappear.
