Dribbles, that's lovely looking. How was it messed up?
I'm sorry your soap doesn't have that gorgeous top anymore but hoping the current version is pretty close. Also, your posts keep warning me about the issues that could come up with soaping in basement. My basement is pretty cold too, guess I've to retire some of my fleece blankets (to my soaping area).
Hello I am.new soap maker ,few months back I made my first exfoliationg soap bar and gift it to my sister whi is now complaining that her complexion is becoming darker .Did it happan to any one else? It was my first soap so I dont remember the recipe but it was just one bar .

LP, would that be true w/soap? I thought about adding a caveat to my post about photosentivizing scents, but then thought that they were really only an issue w/oil based (e.g) B&B products that would remain on the skin.

I just plugged in your recipe with HO canola vs. Olive oil and got the you needed 3.89 oz lye instead of 3.91. I wouldn't call that a significant difference and I wouldn't worry. It's just going to be a smidgen less superfatted. Should be just fine.Ahhh! Just made my first big mistake. I was cleaning up after soaping and noticed that I had grabbed ho canola oil instead of olive oil! $h!t.....here's my recipe - experienced soapers, how badly have I mucked up?
12.6 Oz lard
7 Oz olive oil (which I replaced with canola, apparently)
5.6 Oz coconut oil
1.4 Oz Shea Butter
1.4 Oz castor oil
10.1 Oz coconut milk
3.91 Oz lye
