Hi, I made this batch with pink clay for the bottom part and TD for the top. My formula is
5% castor
20% coconut
47% olive
28% palm
I started at room temperature. And I think this was a mistake. When I added the lye solution it started to thicken fast. I divided into two pots, added clay to one and poured into silicone mold. When I got the second part it was solid so I had a hard time adding TD and blended fast and scooped on too. I thought I had a lucky scape but today I unmolded and saw the too layer wanted to separate, I only had to pull slightly and the whole top came off! I haven't touched the rest of the bars. Do they have a chance and might stay together as they cure? Shall I rebatch? I wouldn't know how to rebatch this. Any suggestions please?
