ruralers Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 I added these cute little melt and pour embeds on my CP soap, but they just keep sweating. Ugh. I am trying to decide if it was something that I did or not. I used Stephenson Melt and Pour Ultra Clear soap base and I believe I didn't overheat the batch, but I am reevaluating everything. We are super humid hear in central IL, so could that just be what is going on? Will it stop? Is there another clear M&P that works better? I appreciate the help!

Shari Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I make sure to use low sweat MP when I make embeds for my soaps (not often). Also letting a fan blow on them helps until you can completely wrap them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't aware that wrapping MP helps reduce sweat. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M&P draws moisture from the air because it is a glycerin base. So especially on humid days they will sweat profoundly. The worst is the 'fuzzy' sweater look they can get. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
