    spongy soap

    We have made many other soaps and this is the only one that does it. It did go through gel. Other soaps we do go thought gel and there hard in the middle when we cut them. I was thinking of using less OO but maybe I'll try less water. Thanks

    Ive got a very nice purple with alkanet root. A 17oz batch I used 5TBSP of infused oil. It was a dark purple. I just made a big batch and didn't add enough. Its more grey/blue. Just add a lot and it will get purple.

    Selling
