    not sure if my soap has too much oil

    I used soapcal.net. Normally I use 5-8% superfat but I read from one article about adding shea butter after the soap was cooked to preserve its quality and in that article they mentioned using 10% sf so I decided to try 10%. Now it seems like my batch will have some problem right? Thank you...

    Hello I'm so glad to see your reply. Thank you very much. Here is the photo of the soap that I just cut. The smell is very fresh. I must be really sad if I have to rebatch them but if it doesn't really work I will have to. From what I cut, I noticed that they aren't like my...

    Hello all, I am very new to soap making and had a problem last night. I made soap and tried to make a swirl. I was too worried that the soap will reach too much trace and I wouldn't be able to make a pattern I planned, but I ended up pouring some of my soap before it traced. After I...
