Is it the same as regular CP soap or can you use it sooner? It was rock hard within 24 hours (probably more like within 1 hour)! So I'm wondering if I can use it sooner or if it would benefit from the extra couple of weeks. It's already been curing for a week and a half.

Thanks
 
As hard as they are, you're probably going to be happier with them if you give them the full cure time.....they just get nicer and smoother with age. :)
 
I also find they get a lot bubblier with age too (but I think that is true with any soap). I was scared when I tested my first salt bar (after about 3 days) and there was ZERO lather. Now, about 5 weeks later, it lathers awesomely! Try to wait it out if you can! :)
 
I'm going to make a salt bar soon! I just have to :lol:

When you use the salt bar in the shower does it burn when you get it on little scrapes and cuts?
