What's in it: Saponified Olive Oil (Pomace), Coconut Oil, Palm Oil, Castor Oil, Sunflower Oil, Shea Butter, Mango Butter, Goatsmilk, Lavender EO.

Why did I get vertical lines thru the soap? Too hot? Did I cut it too soon (15 hours after pour)?
 
Looks like the stuff on top of your soap either got caught on the blade you were using or something like that. It happened to my soap I made with oatmeal and coffee grounds
 
I'd have to go with Dragon's answer... I've has that happen to me before with Lavender buds once and the lines weren't that noticable until it started to cure and shrink down... It still looks very nice tho!
 
Yep

You know what? I didn't even THINK of that! It was the lavender "crunchies" on top.

See, that's why you guys are the PROS!!!!!!!!! 8)

Thank you!
