Hello Expertise Soapers more then I :wave:...lol - ok..I had posted this picture the other day..wondering what was up with my batch of soap. Many looked at this and said it looked like Glycerin Rivers. Now I have used this recipe before - but with black cherry fragrance oil and different colors...it appears beautiful ! ..But this one..although is smells wonderful ..it looks a mess! So many said it probably overheated and that I may have used full water.....so my question for today... (I used lavender EO and Lilac FO )
Next time...how do I reduce the water. Do I go to Soap calc and instead of 38 % i put 35%? Is that what "reduce full water amount means"...?![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Or....
Once I finish this soap - I put it in the fridge. I have heard many people place their batch of soap in the fridge overnight. I am not sure the reason behind this....if people do this on a regular basis...or is it for certain circumstances.
As we say...its a learning process....and I'm learning thanks to all you wonderful soaper people out there ...
