Hi.
I recently made a batch of soap using olive oil, coconut oil, Shea butter, castor oil and sunflower oil. I coloured it using green mica powder which I mixed with almond oil and added to the oils before I added the lye. The oils and lye were around 120 degrees and I reduced the water in my lye solution. It traced super quickly so was very thick when I poured it into the mould. It all looked green when I poured it but when I i moulded it these weird yellow blobs appeared. Does anyone know what they are?
