My 1st Soaps

I hope I am doing this right.

Left is Sensual Top Is Coconut Lime Bottom is Kai Right is Patchouli Honey
The Sensual and Coconut Lime were in a slab mold. Both of them had condensation on top. Not oil. Not lye. Did I peek too much? AC in house was on 68. Also the color of the sensual, BTW, it stinks, was not what I wanted. I messed up and put maybe 2 T of silk fiber from MMS in. The lye water was dark brown. Live and learn.

Thank you. The red and black, stinky, was for my best friends daughter getting married. Her colors were white, back and red. 1st I added way too much silk. Learned lesson #4, always use a measuring spoon. Lye water was almost dark brown and then the scent also morphed even darker, so I ended up with red, black and brown soap. Also with all of the condensation it distracted even yet from the prettiness. The Kai was lesson #2. Do not use M&P liquid coloring. The one color was supposed to be deep purple. It morphed right before my eyes. As soon as it hit the soap mixture it turned brown. I believe it ended up to be the kind of burgundy color in the soap. Love this scent. Right now I am using FOs. EOs are expensive, so I will wait till I get alot of my 1st time screw ups out of the way. Thanks again. Next time I will post better pictures. I am at my office and really no where to do a good shot.
