I think you need to run it through a lye calculator. At 3 weeks, something isn't right.

You cannot sub safflower oil for the olive unless it's high oleic. That's what is making your soap soft.

OP, could you better describe the texture? Is it like pudding?

When you say "goo" I am thinking it is more like pudding, but it could be just very soft.
