Hi guys, here is my question I made some cp soap last Thursday here is the recipe I used: Glowlite's super esay CP Soap for beginners 10 oz olive oil 7 oz coconut oil 1 tbl castor oil 6 oz distilled water 2.6 oz lye 1/2 tsp tumeric for yellow color (optional) I followed through with the directions. as well as using Robin's tutorial I poured my lye into the oils (100 degrees) oils were at 100 degrees as well. the minute I put the stick blender into the mixture about 5 seconds It was a consistency of paste. I kept mixing for about 5 minutes as per directions, I added 1 oz of Jamaica me crazy FO (I added following directions with robin's tutorial) I even attempted to swirl (LOL ! don't ask) I used blue and yellow dye trying to get a green color it came out purple I poured into the mold and let sit for 24 hrs. I cut it into bars. four days later it is still soft. what did I do wrong? hope I explained this well enough. I can't post a pic, I'm still stuck in the dinosaur era here at my house don't have digital camera yet. .
