Kia ora pauline
I have only been soaping since october last year but to answer this question
you/we/I would needd to know all of the context around your experience. If I
have learnt anything, its that there are so many variables and even the same
recipe can do differetn things in different contexts. I have also learnt
that you learn most from your 'mistakes' so theres lots of learning coming
your way.:-) so for starters whats your recipe?

My third batch of soap - not good. When I mixed the oil with the lye it
instantly went solid before I could put it into moulds. I think I put too
much Palm oil in. Next day grated half of that batch and reheated it and
trickled in filtered water slowly. Took another 600mls but it looked like
and felt like it had a bad cold (snotty). As it cooled it turned white and
was manageable but now feels sticky. What went wrong?
