    What soapy mistake have you made today?

    Unfortunately without the recipe and your process details it would be hard to say, it could be a myriad of things :(. With the additional information, I'm sure you'll get some help with what might be going on.

    What was an "AHA" moment for you, in learning how to soap

    My aha moment was figuring out that if I add my additives to my extra water before adding to my lye masterbatch, that they incorporate so much better...now just how to remind myself not to forget to do it until after!

    Aloe Vera Juice

    I've used aloe vera juice for partial and whole water replacement in the past, and it worked well. I now use aloe vera powder 200x added to the remaining water (i masterbatch my lye) before combining with masterbatched lye and find that works better for me, both in the soap and in storage space.
