I made lavender(cp) with an attempt at black swirls, turned out gray. Then i made hp 1/2 "drakkar, other 1/2 batch "butt naked" which i call bare naked! the drakkar i made green, bare naked added white tit., so we'll see.

Then I made a batch of CP with a new "non-discolouring" vanilla FO that turned my soap BRIGHT GREEN. Sure, it doesn't discolour brown, but it turns freaking GREEN!! Even worse! Argh!
So, I am feeling pretty defeated and giving up for the weekend I think. I may do an unscented/uncoloured soap tomorrow... that should be safe!

I gave her some soap about a month ago for her to try out.... the skin on her arms is so sensitive, she hasn't been able to use any kind of soap on them for years -- even cetaphil -- without it burning and stinging. She has always just washed them with water. Yesterday she told me that the soap I gave her doesn't irritate her arms at all and she's been using it everyday. It felt pretty awesome to hear that.
