Hiya
Made another one.. and used some color this time and attempted to get a bit of a swirl going on. Used a fragrance oil for the first time (always used EO's before). Its called English Rose and smells more or less like a whole flower shop in one bottle. The mixture was nice and creamy and tracing wonderfully but as soon as the FO went in it became all liquidy again and then started to cut up.
Dunno what happened there, maybe somebody else can tell me because I'm clueless..
Anyway.. kept mixing like a maniac and split up the batch into two and colored one part with half a bottle of 'red' and produced this funky shock orange/cerise shade.. (or a mixture of the two..)
After cutting it up today the swirl looks nice but it is as if the FO is not 100% incorporated because there are shiny patches across the soap..
