I just finished my first "Milk" based soap. I think it's going to be awesome! It took forever to trace, but once it did it looked great.

OMG - even on my iPhone that looks gorgeous! Envy!!
I have no will power to make white but this might stop
My color addiction.

Does the top have texture going upwards?
So so lovely!!!! Kicking my kids of the big computer so I can see that pretty baby up close.

LMAO!! :lolno:

LOL how do you keep it from gelling Obsidian? I'm too new at this stuff. :oops:
 
You put it in the freezer for 24-48 hours. That way it will keep its pretty light creamy color.
 
As promised. I found it to be a little on the wet side I guess this would be condensation. I have a fan on it now and seems to be working.

Looks really good. You can lessen condensation by thawing it in the fridge for 12 hours or so before bringing it to room temp.
 
WOW they look so nice! I bet it will lather up really great. I have never done a milk bar. What kind(s) of milk did you use? It looks so luscious!

It's a four pounder. 18 x 3.5 x 3.5 I only poured it to 2.5 high on this run.

Omg you're going to LOVE using milk soaps! They look SO good too! I remember making my first batch and added the lye water to the milk/oils @ too high temp and got a burnt smell, but it was OK b/c a week later, it had an awesome orange scent to it, lol. Go figure.
