What soapy mistake have you made today?

[Elise]

So just to be clear, people, I am responding to a post, not posting about any mistakes. I really like bergamot and it is in regular rotation in my soaping. Don't be hatin' on my bergamot!

Do you find that the smell sticks well ? I would be thrilled, I love the smell of bergamot. Also, may I ask at what % of oil do you use it?

I have tried this before and the sugar remained grainy, even adding it to very warm oils. Not sure why it doesn't work for me.

Try powdered sugar - works great!

I'll have to try that! I made up my sugar water today and put it in the fridge so it will be cold whenever I make my lye solution for my next batch of soap.
