Has anyone had any experience with the FO called Bamboo Lotus from Wholesale Supplies Plus? I just purchased it, and I would love to use it soon, but I'm afraid of acceleration, seizing, ricing, ect. Tips, and tricks for this FO would be most appreciated!

I know that TD can make soap form glycerin rivers, but do they develop instantly, or over time? I just looked at my love spell soap and it looks like there's tiny glycerin rivers?

No, I actually used a black oxide. I'm a little afaid to use activated charcoal. Maybe some day ^^

Thank you so much ^^. It was supposed to be a drop swirl, but that didn't quite happen because I was soaping in really cold weather, and all my oils just didn't want to behave, but love spell being the fragrance it is stopped trace. So the swirl is a mixture of a drop swirl, and a spoon swirl XD

I made a Fresh Zucchini Flower soap, and Love Spell soap that I have come to call "Love Potion No. 9" XD but here they are ^^. I actually thought that love Spell would be a fail because the soap came out a bit soft because I used cocoa butter for the first time, but patience prevented a disaster.

The mica on top did not dry well, and is coming off, but I didn't expect an awesome outcome from my first attempt. Here's a closer look:

I used titanium dioxide for the first time in this batch, but when I did cut the soap I had little undissolved pockets of colorant. Would that affect the final look of the soap once it cures? Here are the soaps I'm referring to:

I have noticed that if I do put my soap in the freezer it's sofer and takes a few extra days to cut. Is that normal?

I just made a new batch of soap today. However, I want to put it in the freezer to prevent gel phase. How long is one supposed to leave it in there for? Also, do you cover it up with a towel after it comes out of the freezer, or just leave it uncovered?

Okay looks like I'm getting a lot of negative feed back from this forum. So I will not be posting here anymore.

I have the ingredients on the back. I've asked all of the people I gave my soaps away to if they were allergic to any of the oils colorants, or butters that I was using before hand. Thank goodness they are not.

The original post was edited because I just saw yesterday that it said sell rather than "Give Away" that was a mistake on my end. I've been gone for a few days, and it was brought to my attention that my post said sell. I'm sorry for all the confusion. I do agree with all of you guys though. I...

I've had a few successful batches lately. I've decided to package them, and Give them away. I want to know what people other than my family think of my packaging (Mind you this is my first time packaging anything, and it was fairly low budget) Anyway here is one of my packaged soaps. I'm also...

But if it can't be reversed how come when I put my soap in the freezer the gel phase appeared to reverse. So I'm fairly confused. :???:

Oh poo! Okay, thank you so much for the information ^^"
