Can I do anything about it now or do I just have to leave it? It is a really
deep purple, I've just taken them out of the molds, the colour is nice, as
purple is my favourite colour, I love it, but it has spots.
How long do you or others leave their soap in the molds, some of mine have
stuck
even after they've been in the freezer for 10 mins or so. The mold is detailed
and takes some of the pattern of the soap sometimes.

Hmmm....not familiar with them. I hate colour spotting
I like to use the lakes from Aromatics and More, especially
for the reds and pinks. D&C40 is a good true red
