Yup! I wavy cut one side & leave the other flat so I can stamp on it.

Ok! Finally, here are the pics I promised.

Here's that first creamy looking batch, which like I said turned. Now it's brown. You can also see the scrubby oatmeal in it:


Here's the one that I colored with a jade colorant. There's very little green left & you can see the partial-gel bullseye which is very odd being lightest in the middle with a darker ring. LOL


Here's the latest. I just added the goat milk powder to the oils & used oatmilk. No scrubbies!!! Ialso let this one go through full gel. It's just starting to turn & will probably be the same brown as that first batch.


Paul just may have converted me to a goats milk-only soaper!!!

Thanks, Topcat! Reconstituting seemed to cause problems, so I'm glad to know the easier way of adding it to the oils works just fine!!

I'm going to start looking for a supplier of fresh goats milk. I'd like to give that a try next. Maybe I can work out a trade - soap for milk.
