I tried to make a face soap today and made a mistake
the recipe wasn’t written for a master batch but I read it that way. Wasn’t until batter wouldn’t go to full trace that I realized the mistake ![Woman facepalming: medium skin tone :woman_facepalming_tone3: 🤦🏽♀️](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f926-1f3fd-2640.png)

Nice hubby!! Does he have to go out and buy the wood or does he have a stash?Today, I remembered how much I hate using freezer paper to line moldsI've been spoiled by my silicone-lined boxes. But it is nice that my husband can throw together a wood box for me when I need a specific size for something.
He usually has a stash but he did have to go buy some this time because he used his scrapsNice hubby!! Does he have to go out and buy the wood or does he have a stash?
Are you able to use molybdenum or b-12? sometimes they can help.. especially if you are sensitive to sulfites. Sure hope you feel better real soon!I’ve been dealing with an asthma exacerbation lately, so am unable to make soap until I feel better. I may still try and just wear a mask. I need to make soap!!
I take a multi-vitamin daily. My goal is to just wear a mask and try a light fragrance this weekend.Are you able to use molybdenum or b-12? sometimes they can help.. especially if you are sensitive to sulfites. Sure hope you feel better real soon!
I can laugh because I am guilty of the same exact thing! Only I can't even blame it on being at work ~ I was literally melting butters and oils together to make soap and forgot to turn on heatI just sat stirring oils in my crockpot to try making a soap paste for an hour, I couldn’t figure out why the coconut oil wasn’t melting. It always helps if you plug it in!
Maybe I shouldn’t soap while I’m at work!!!!!
That fragrance is a fave & accelerates for me as well. I add it to the warm oils before adding the lye solution to combat acceleration.Made ZNSC and scented with BBs Sandalwood Vanilla yesterday. Unmolded today and is curing. The scent is pretty nice, it did accelerate the batch.
