    Second soap batch

    I have made a second batch of soap. This time I used skin safe cosmetic mica colors. Color seems to be much lighter 24 hours after sitting, is this normal or could it be the brand of mica ? Thanks!

    Crisco in soap?

    I won’t be much help for long term use of crisco but I added crisco at 20 percent of my recipe and I worked well in my soap making. my bar is only 3 weeks old so I can’t help about how it will hold up but I love how my bar feels.
