I think I should try a basic plain batch of my recipe first and try to perfect it. I am giving up on oil and infused colours and am going to put an order in for some clay and oxides.
penelopejane, although new soapers hate to hear this advice, it really is to your advantage to go slow in the beginning. Even unscented, uncolored handmade soap is amazing! Practice until you can make a successful batch every time, and then start with variables, one at a time. By changing only one thing at a time, it makes it easier to identify the problem, if one occurs. Don't worry, you'll get there.
