Hi,
Can someone help me out with my soap (grey batch), need to know why I keep getting this effect happening in my soap. I have been trying to do 'swirls' or more dual colour effects, the top looks ok, the bottoms are variable, some are solid one colour, or a mix. But the sides are the worst. For this batch I split the soap into 2 jugs and coloured one and then poured them together. I did research and that is how it is suggested to do it but its working out worse than my very first lot.
My first lot (pink batch) I just mixed the mica in some isoprpyl alcohol and dripped in into the mould as I poured the soap in. The bottoms and tops looked ok, sides didn't ahve nearly the same weeping effect as the latest batch. But I found that there was very little to no colour swirl in the middle of the bar. Is there a way to get the interior of the soap look better with this method? Sorry I only have a pic of the top and bottoms on the pick batch
