Candybee Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I was making a 3.5 lb batch of CP soap and decided to blend some amyris with some sandalwood FO and another FO. I used 1oz amyris. Thats all. My soap seized big time! LOL Just a head's up it can move really, really fast. Next time I plan to use half that amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Was it EO or FO? And where from?My well-aged (read as: bought in a co-op and stuck it in the cabinet forgetting about it for yeeeeears) Amyris EO from LN is thick as cold molasses now. I can't get any scent to come through CP with it, but i don't recall it causing acceleration. :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted August 6, 2015 Author Share Posted August 6, 2015 Its the EO. Got it from SMR. I've use it before with no problems but that was a much smaller amount I added to my vanilla sandalwood blend. This time I decided to up the amyris amt to 1oz as I was short on my sandalwood FO. LOL Big mistake! Anyway, I plopped it in the mold and mashed it down to fairly level but it has a very rustic looking top. So I sprinkled on some gold glitter to purdy it up a bit. BTW-- so far it smells awesome! I mixed Peaks Asian Sandalwood and EBB's Toasted Oats & Shea with the Amyris. It really smells heavenly! Hope it sticks!! (and doesn't morph!!)
