Hi Gina

 

The colour in the camera is coming up blue, so I want to take it outside (when 
it’s dry, the weather that is) and see if the light is better out there, so it 
shows the actual purple colour, when I do, I’ll send it through.

 

Questions: (more)  Hubby has been using the first batch of soap I made and said 
it’s not very lathery, what is in the soap that makes is lathery, and how can I 
make it more lathery.  He said the M&P is lathery and that’s what I’ve been 
using and it’s good, but I haven’t tried the CP soap yet.  

 

Thanks Jan

Yeah that’s what I was thinking. I could pretend J

I don’t mind it at all but I was just wondering why it happened, next time I’ll 
mix with some soap.

How can I put a picture on, without belonging to facebook? Anyone, can I?

.....and yet for me.... I quite like some of the colour spotting ........some 
of which has occurred in my own soap making and some of which I've seen in 
soaps made by other people.  Guess it's a personal preference really...

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
