Oh... Well...

I was using up the tail end of my free sample of Mountain Mist FO (CS) by blending it with White Eucalyptus FO (also CS). I forgot all about Mountain Mist's bad habit of discoloring to a sort of mauve color. There goes my pretty soft green. Just a small batch. Still smells nice.

Still very pretty, too!

That looks nice, @artemis

Show us again in a few days. The mauve will still look pretty.

Thats so funny, I used mountain mist recently, combined with other FOs and the result was so perfect for what I wanted I don't think I could ever duplicate it again It wasn't until I put the product in the box that I was like "shoot, that looks good!"

At least it doesn't darken any further.

Yours looks

Very pretty soap.

I like the color. Never used mountain mist FO, now I will consider. That might be my favorite color.

See... If I had remembered, I would have worked with it instead of going with green ...

Still looks pretty. I have a bunch of lavender vanilla left that does the same thing. When the scent is gone, I'm moving to a different lavender. That browning is just annoying.

Such a pretty green. I hope it will still be a color you like once it finishes discoloring.

Here's the update after about 3 days. The lighter color has gone purple. The green has darkened and gone a little gray. I can see the rind is a little darker, so I expect it will continue to change over time.

It still looks good @artemis. The purple discoloration is a pretty color on my screen. Does it stay or eventually fade?

I believe it stays. Once it's cured, it will get used up quickly (three men showering daily), but I will separate one from the batch for longer observation.

I love how soaps change, or don't, over time. It's like a magic spell that has unexpected consequences you never explored. A curse that becomes a blessing, & vice versa.
This is one that I'm REALLY loving!
