Dear god! kill it! Kill it with fire!

This is why you SB in your goats blood before coloring with earth from a virgins grave. What ever you made there is seriously unholy.

nah, at the very least keep if for posterity. Or to scare the kids/burgalars away from your soaping stuff. The pics at the very least are useful for a trouble shooting demo. I'd never seen something quite like that in any of the books.

I was going to use this strawberry FO to pipe ice cream. Pic #1 shows it before it put the petal to the metal and acceleratored like a teenage boy in a new porche. Pic #2 shows it scooped out of the piping bag and stuffed into a mold. #3 show how horribly this FO discolored and it really doesn't smell good either so at this point, it got chunked into the trash where it sat for almost a week. So tonight, I pull it out of the trash and decide to photograph it for this ugly thread and then cut into it. #4 shows that it wouldn't be that bad if it would only stay pink inside! But we all know that won't happen. This was one of the most disappointing FO's I ever purchased. And right after I purchased it, they discontinued it. Sure wish I could get my money back! This one wasn't cheap!

It looks nice, even though its not what you wanted. How did you get the soap to do two different looks. You mentioned piping, what is that?

Another to add....

Glad I found this thread.... Very helpful



Almond Milk, Honey & Oat Soap, which overheated!

Current PH 9-10

Zap test - Didn't Zap

Has strong smell of Ammonia, but isn't burnt on inside



My beautiful honeycomb embeds melted

It's now chopped into chunks waiting for Kitty Litter (hubby promised to pick up today).

Local council advised to dispose of in regular trash?

How does anyone else dispose of their bad batches?

Making Bath Bombs for next few days, 'til I get my Soapy Mojo back.

If its not zappy, just toss it in the trash. Soap is biodegradable.

 

[Saponista]

I just put mine in the brown wheelie bin to go off with the landfill waste.

 

[DWinMadison]

I will say, it has all the makings of a very nice soap. It was a solid design concept and well executed from a "technique" standpoint. If you could just call in the Exxon Valdez clean-up team....

 

[grumpy_owl]

Open dictionary, turn to "partial gel." Oh look! It's my mulberry soap!

 

[Obsidian]

Whoa, that is intense partial gel. I actually really like it.

 

[DWinMadison]

Whoa. I'd claim that one as "Oh yeah, planned it."

 

[jules92207]

Seriously that is a pretty cool looking partial gel.

 

[AutismArtisan]

Fingers crossed used COOL SOAPING technique, frozen milk, honey etc.



Not such an 'Ugly Soap'



Yeah

^^ yay! looks good so far. i'm pretty sure the new batch doesn't belong in the ugly thread

 

[AutismArtisan]

its better than my other on here. Lol

 

[Saponista]

You should put your new soap into the picture gallery section of the forum. I'm sure we'd all love to see what it looks like when you've cut it.

I would so claim that I tried do this on purpose! I think it looks really neat!

 

[choco_soap]

I've deleted mine.

 

[Sonya-m]

Latest (3rd) batch. Was gonna try in the pot swirls but it traced very quickly

 

[The Efficacious Gentleman]

Also not an ugly soap! Might not be what was planned, but it is still pretty
