So I recently made a batch of failed salt bars, LOL. The first few days I hated it but now as it approaches the 1st week cure mark, I like it better. It's less drying than when it first came out of the mold.
It was supposed to be a three colour swirl but .... I poured at too thin a trace so it ended up only becoming almost only one colour. It was too brittle to cut and the salt kept falling everywhere ! LOL. So yes, it's not a very pretty peace of soap !
It might be my climate but this batch of soap really leak ALOT of water. Like I came home yesterday to find my soap swimming in a puddle and there's a puddle of water on the floor where it flowed off the board. [You can see in the photo that there are some wet spots on my parchment paper]
Had to dry them and this morning when I woke up, they are weeping again !
So I decided to call them weepy bars. LOL. But I have to say that weepy is pretty nice to use. I tried out on my face last night and I liked the results. I thought I would never make a salt bar again but hmmm.... I just might so I can have prettier salt bars...
