I think its the FO cause when i poured it in the mold i saw some different colored oil swirling in my batter but i swear i really mixed it well. I stirred it well with a spatula and i also use a mixer (i dont have stick blender). And it stil wont really mix well. So i decided to pour it and 19 hours later it looks like this. What should i do? (Sorry for my poor english) btw, the soap has moringa and neem leaves juice and coconut milk. The fo was eucalyptus.
 
I'm not seeing your picture here. Are you sure the soap reached trace when you made it?

How much oil is it? If its just a little bit, it should soak back in. If its a lot, you might need to rebatch.

It's hard to tell by the pictures but as long as they don't zap I would leave them and see if it seeps back in. Otherwise just wipe it off. If they zap I would rebatch. You really need a stickblender when making soap, it makes things so much easier.
