NancyT Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 About 3 weeks ago I made some m&p using white base, added grapefruit & peppermint fo; cocoa butter, shea butter, glycerine, jojoba oil,and ground pumice. Most of the pumice settled to the bottom but it still looked nice (kind of like the bottom of a dirty foot ). They had a nice shine to them and were very cute. Yesterday I opened the tote I had them in and they have a dull spotty look to them. I was sooooo disappointed. Can anyone tell me what might have happened. I let them set out in the open a few days before packing them away so I know change came sometime after packing them. Any ideas?????

DeAnna_EC Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 did they sweat at all? sometimes mine do that im not sure why either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyT Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 No I don't think they did any sweating. I know they were completely dry when I packed them away, and I don't think the tote was in the sun at all, that might have caused some condensation inside. What did you do about yours when it happened? Do you just package them and try to sell like they are or is there something I can do to make them look a little better?

Starr Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Were they all individually packaged? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyT Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 No, I actually hadn't packaged them yet. But they were in the same tote. I'm just wondering if there is any way of saving them. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeAnna_EC Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 i took a clean damp microfiber cloth and wiped mine downthen i took another microfiber cloth dipped in mineral oil and wiped the bars down againit seems to be working, i'll wait a few hrs and check on them to see if they dulled up again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyT Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 Thank you. I'll be interested to see how they turn out. I finally took one of my body poufs and rubbed them down with it, enought to get the spots off and they look pretty good, but like you, I'll give it some time to see if they come back. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeAnna_EC Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 seems to have worked just fine, they are nice and shiney again, i took another dry microfiber and rubbed them down again and wrapped them tightly in plastic wrap (saran wrap), i'll check on them again later tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairieannie Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I know that using pantyhose to buff CP soap works really well, I bet it would be great to use for MP also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
