I just made this soap last night. I've read somewhere that if you place kaolin clay on your fragrance oils they will last longer in your soap so I did it. On the green layer, I used Eucalyptus FO while on the pink layer I used Peppermint FO. Upon unmolding, this is what I saw. Although I am...

haha yes, I guess that is the best thing to do.. Are there any other ways we can work around with FOs like this? It's my first time using FO, I usually use EO since they do not misbehave. Now I'm afraid to use FOs :(

I made my first batch of lavender soap today but I forgot to spritz some rubbing alcohol on it. I know that there's possibility of soda ash build up, will that occur too if I immediately placed my soap in the refrigerator? Is there any relation to that?

Thank you very much!
