Soda Ash question

[lizettevdm23]

Maybe a silly question but me being new to soap making just found that my 1st batch Lavender scented soap is turning white - and that it apparently is soda ash forming due to air and the lavender scent that causes it? Is this true and how do I fix them? Will all my soap do this? Please help!

Soda ash is not caused from the air and lavender scent., it can happen with any scent.

my 1st batch Lavender scented soap

Hey Lizette, did you use the Essential Depot kit? My first batch was lavender scented as well so I was wondering!
