Hi again. Do you put vegetable glycerin in your cold process soap?

Glycerin can be used for mixing colors, but generally for cold process soapmaking you do not need to add as it is a natural byproduct of the soapmaking process.
I think some hot process soaps may also add glycerin to help make the soap more pourable (but take that advice with a grain of salt, it's been almost a decade since I made hot process soap).

Oh I see . That does help

Thanks maple

I don't add glycerin to CP or HP soap unless I am aiming for a product such as M&P soap. Glycerin is a natural byproduct created in the soap making process.
