I used TKB's Cosmic Carolyn last night and when I cut the soap this am, I found that it had gone from shocking pink to peach and gold in different parts of the bar. The edges were still pink but I got a partial gel as well. THen, I just got home and found it had all turned back to pink; it didn't feel hot or even warm but it must have still been in process when I cut this am. I also used Cancerian heat for one of the swirls. This looks terrible. It looks like it separated but there is no oil or anything and only the swirls of this color are all off. I have to check the ingredients to see if there might be an explanation as to why it looks so crappy. It almost looks like the soap doesn't stick to the mica, although I don't think this makes sense, but that's what it looks like.

I also got their liquid neon colors which are supposed to be non-bleeding. Have to try them out over the weekend.
