Zing Junior's first batch

Beautiful soap, I’m a little jealous as my first batch looked awful and was lye heavy. Congratulations to Sting on his first batch!

I love the look of them ! Congratulations to Zing junior
Honey soap colored by using red palm oil is on my to do list already ! Money is tight right now and red palm oil is a cheap enough ingredient at the next door African shop. I thought that it might be a better option to reach the color I want, curcuma looked a tat bit brownish in my last batch. And your soap seems to confirm that !
Would you mind sharing the % of red palm oil you used to get that color ?

Thanks! Sorry, I don't know exactly. I had a container of red palm oil to use up and then added regular palm oil to get to my desired weight. My good guess would be 20%. A little goes a long way!

Good to know ~ I was wondering what would happen if the 2 types of PO were combined
