My First Rebatch

[Luckyone80]

So back in October I made an unscented/uncolored batch of soap that was a total fail b/c I don't think I mixed enough before pouring. Then I had a bunch of scraps leftover from my almost fail orange batch, see pics below.

So I rebatched and colored with turmeric and scented with more orange, litsea, lemongrass and eucalyptus. I'm really happy with how it turned out but the scent isn't as strong as I would like, maybe I didn't add enough but at least I turned it into something useable. :smile:

How much EO did you add(total) to how much soap?

How much EO did you add(total) to how much soap?

Probably a total of 1oz for about 28 oz of oils so that answers that question, lol

That scent combo sounds really nice, and I like the color that you got using the turmeric.

Thanks! I was wondering if it looked normal and ok for a rebatched soap? I couldn't get all of the shaved soap to melt in spite of SB it so that is what some of the white speckles are.

It looks really nice for rebatch, mine is usually much lumpier and ugly.

Nicely done I really like that color

Thank you, I might think about rebatching the orange soap then so it looks better.

That is some very nice looking rebatch, I wouldn't take the time to rebatch anything more, I think you have it about as good as rebatch gets. The sliced bars look very nice and smooth, and the crinkle cut bars look nice too.

The crinkle cut round bars are the ones I'm thinking of rebatching. The lighter orange is the rebatch from the white batch and scraps from the orange crinkle batch. The orange crinkle batch gave me fits from the beginning and the outsides look all crappy so I'm thinking of rebatching it now.
