Anna Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Yesterday I made a 5 lb batch of soap,unmolded it today,and it has way to much color.I want to rebatch it,but I thinking I need to add something to it to soften the color.Can I add more oils,or do I need to use some soap that I have to it?I will never be able to use it the way it is.I wish I knew how to post a picture,if you could see it you would say "Holy Sh!$.LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamp_deb Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 You can grind it up and use it as confetti in an uncolored batch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NNK Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I'll second confetti soap. it's eazy. just make a new batch of soap, and then either add your soap scraps at trace (if you want only a little bit of confetti), of you can make it up to 50% new soap batter and 50% confetti. in this case i would recommend adding your scraps to oils, ann add your lye solution and stir, stir, stir until it traces. sometime it takes a while, and some people use mixer with a dough hook to help the stirring. i had the best luck with 30% confetti/70% new soap. here is the picture of my original bar and the one i ended up with. as you see my base was yellow.~Nat~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
