This is my favorite kind of soap swirling. Swirling the colors together in the pot makes it look like there’s more shades of color when you cut the soap and the designs are never the same it’s gorgeous

Hiya! I’ve haven’t come across this way of melting the hard oils before! Could you explain hair to do it and when (does the lye water need to come down to a certain temperature first etc?)... I’m a bit mesmerised now about this technique, I reckon it could save me loads of time and enable me to make soap more regularly without taking so much time away from family 🙌 thanks in advance!
@OpheliasSoapery3 жыл бұрын
As soon as you mix your lye into your water and it dissolves fully (about 1 minute of stirring) you want to pour it over your hard oils. You want the heat to melt the oils so you’ll will not want it to set and cool. Also make sure your oils and butters are in smaller chunks so they melt faster :)

I have a couple of questions if you or anyone as experienced can answer. I still consider myself new to soap making so I am still learning with every batch. I use a multi bar cutter and was wondering if I shouldn't be wiping the wires off like you do your cuts? My other question, is will that blue darken back to its original blue as it cures? I try to just use what the mica folks recommend but sometimes it's just not enough. I'm afraid I'll ruin a batch of soap by putting too much. I am also having a heck of a time making white with the soap oils turning out so yellow and my recipe is similar to yours. I've tried dispersed titanium dioxide and winter white from Nurture Soap and still not getting white at all. Would love some advice on that, too.
