I'm very new but I'm confused at this point. I thought there was:
1. Melt and Pour which is where you buy the base and work from there. It has to be wrapped immediately?
2. Cold Process which is with lye and other oils . . . .It does not have to be wrapped.
3. Hot Process (I'm confused about this but working on it>. Using heat from what I understand.
I just downloaded a book called "Making Your Own Melt and Pour" which is with lye and other stuff. Technically, is this Melt and Pour or is it Hot Process since you have to heat everything up. If this is really M/P, then Hot Process confuses me.
Am I totally missing something. I will keep reading and studying but if there is an easy answer, please let me know before I pull my hair out. . . . that wouldn't be pretty.
