Are they lye pockets??
Found them in 2 slices out of 14.
I made this batch with honey which was not completely liquefied when i added it after trace. Just hope that those are honey.
Do i have to throw the whole batch away?
Penelopejane, i actually posted on my other thread asking for recipes without CO, animal fats and palm. I know its lots of restriction. Will see what come up, i definitely will try
before unmolding, i found oily spots on top of my soap. i still cut it after 30hrs in the mold. no oily places in the centre or sides, just those few on top. What could be the problem?
I just made two new batches with 15% of CO. will see if he can tolerate.
Arimara, I actually did put CO directly on his hand the other day. nothing seems to happen on that applied area, but the itchiness seems to spread from his back to his chest and tummy after that day.
Thank you all.
my recipes:
71% OO
29% CO
OR
71%OO
26%CO
3% Castor
His itchiness goes even worse after stopping to use my soap for two or three days, it's spreading to his chest and tummy. He scratches so hard that bleeds.
:cry:
Thank you all for the responses.
I just don't feel good about having animals fat. but still Thank you lionprincess00 for giving me the thought. and The Efficacious Gentleman, you are right. I suspect my son is allergic to CO. The itchiness goes worse these couple of days. he scratched...
He tried 2 of my soaps, both recipes are similar withalmost 70% olive oil. SF@6%, cured for 5wks. My younger son and all other family members have no problem at all.
Can someone without any problems consuming coconut food be allergic to coconut oil?
After a Week of use of my soap (around 30% of CO), my son started to feel itchy at his back, but no rash. Is that CO allergy?
Two of my recipes:
22 ounces olive oil (71%)
8 ounces coconut oil (26%)
1 ounce castor oil (3%)
Used milk instead of distilled water
SF@6%
AND
Olive Oil 20oz
Coconut Oil 12oz
Castor Oil 1oz
SF@10%
I cured them for 5weeks before use
