arghhh. i tried it again w/ yellow dock. i must have some bad stuff or something. i tried cooling the lye solution before i added the YDP to about 130 or so. i figured warm enough to get it nicely in solution but hopefully not too hot. i used i tsp ppo or about i tb total. to say it looks blood red is being generous....i'm sure it will go brown AGAIN. where is the wonderful light pink everyone else seems to get w/it???? the other bummer is that i thought, ok even if it comes out dark i'll do another funnel swirl, at least that is cool.....i forgot that since i added the ydp to the lye, EVERYTHING is colored......duhh how stupid can i be??? oh well i did a funnel swirl prior to this batch today that i don't think went well. i used ultramarine pink and this did not look very pink.....i don't think the swirl will be too good but i'll just have to see :cry:
hope everyone else had a better soap day than me.... :!:
