And whats the purpose of curing the soap for 4 weeks ? I just washed my hands and everything went great :-D just wish it had a smell


The soap is undergoing chemical changes as it cures. It becomes milder and gentler and the lather also improves as the water is evaporating out. The longer the cure the better a soap gets. Try it again in another week and you'll be surprised at the difference

Hope I phrased that right. If not I'm sure someone will correct me.

The longer the cure the better a soap gets to a certain point. After that, it stays fairly stable for a while. Depending on the recipe, soap can be cured in as little as 4 weeks or as long as a year.
