[attachment=0:ifjhy8tn]English Rose Hemp Oil (4x2).jpg[/attachment:ifjhy8tn]

I tried a new recipe. I took my 30/30/30 Goat's milk recipe, swapped out the conditioning oils at 5 percent for Hemp oil. Added 1/2 cup rose hip powder and adzuki bean powder both for healing properties - should be excellent for eczema type issues with my family - superfatted to 5 percent overall. I was expecting a white soap, maybe a little on the yellow side. I added dried rose buds to the top and hoped for the best. English Rose frangrance oil from Bambleberry. It came out wonderfully. ...and green. Oh my, is it green. A deep forest green. Still...it is pretty, but just such a surprise. I am wondering if both the rose hip and the adzuki bean both contributed to the green. No colors added, as it is for my family. Here is a picture:

Yes, would love to see a picture. I use 8% hempseed oil in all my soaps and always get a yellowish color.
