here are a few ideas for you you can do a cross ( with wood wick ) and that burns in a round circle( you would have to adjust the wick size) or play around with your waxes to get to the right melting point ( learn your wax melting points) and the average melting point of them mixed( can do...

I actually saturate them in bleach to remove all colors. it works for me for now. I cant garuenttee it doesn't effect or ruins the mold. ... but if you believe its gone bad ...what the heck..

I wonder as well. by the way . are there any other ways to thicken LS? lets say...adding glycering? or any other ingredients...ie TEA (TriEphyleAmine)? I will try it..if it is allowed in Alcogel...it probably would be allowed in soap if it worked

Well personally I wouldn't sell anything less then perfect :-) but I will experiment on it. I did take a shower with it and it doesn't have any harsh effect. I m puzzled. Will try what you guys offered here and will report back :) And I do eat a lot of spicy food🤣

Did the zap test twice! On the paste and a piece melted in water. Wierd! But I will take everyone advice and dilute it with oils and etc it sit a bit . Will post my results. Thanks for everyone's replies. I m starting to think I signed that my log is 90%pure...while it actually isn't and...

ok. I added the formula in a picture ( olive 45% coconut 20%,castor 15%, palm oil 15%(don't hate me) , palm kernel( don't hate me even more)). my soap came super clear. but the PH tested 14!!! can I reduce the ph somehow? without loosing clarity? how can I add EO without loosing clarity...

thannks for the reply. well I will go get some borax tommorow and will try. thanks for the reply. i might have used too much. but then I tried a bit ,,,and even a bit changed the clarity. sure will do that and add some pics

without clouding it? I have tried citric acid..... it clouded it and made some of it separate and become white... would essential oil and oils do any good?

mmm...before putting a post up, I will try to revive this post. so I just made my frist super clear liquid soap...realy, so happy with it...but then I checked the ph was 14 .what should I do? how can I reduce it without clouding it?

can you tell me what in the blend? or the manufacture keeps it as a secret?

well , everything here is chines made... so I am trying to go on that notion to have more natural candles, though paraffin here is fairly cheap. around 1 usd per 1 pound. ( 1/2 a kg) and soy is 4 times as much , I should ask the manufacture for an analysis sheet and check it out.

hi hi......wow. thank you for the effort putting in it! sorry wasn't here for afew days. been sitting around caffes now that the lockdown has been removed. any way. thank you for the time taking to experiment on this. so now I figure my soy wax is fully hydroginated. ok...well was super...

the problem is that it is a Lavender EO....so I guess raising the pouring temp would hurt the smell . I actually never checked completely the evaporating temperature of the oil itself...but knowing a bit perfumery.. lavender that is not synthetic would have more than 100 molecules that some for...

thanks

it keeps comming back up... even after blowing it with a hear gun wierd. first time this happens to me . but I never worked with soy wax before. used 100% soy wax. I never new there could be a difference between different soy waxes.was poured at around 150f (70c) so making whole soy candles is...

would appreciate some advice on this. so I used only soy wax . fragrance at 10% (pure lavender essential oil -not 40/42) color is pink and white. blended fragrance at 165F . what do you think the problems is? why would the white stuff float around the edges? what actually is it and why is it...

thanks for the reply

Hi DeeAnna. yes I did check , though..I do not know the source of the stearin... so a bit of a problem. can I estimate an avarge? or it would be a big difference between all stearin?

hi guys. bringing this post back up. can anyone tell what's the sponification value of any stearing? let say I dont know the source. how would I calculate the amount of lye?
