    When a batch Seizes aka Soap on a Stick

    When my batch seizes usually from a fragrance oil, so everything is mixed. I glove up and roll out orbs or chisel out stone shapes. I order some fragrances that are known to seize when I want to particularly make orbs and or stones.

The older soap doesn't leech at all)a bit, but did not stain the tub where it was sitting. The soap didn't stain my skin, and my...
