and I am soo thrilled. After doing a lot of research, and asking a lot of questions I went for it. I made a 4# batch of Rise & Shine/sandlewood CP soap.
Everything went well and so far the soap is looking good - I will post pictures. I even did the swirl.

Question - I have soaped M&P in the past. Do you use the same amount FO for CP as you do for M&P??? I used a little less than 1oz/lb and it still seemed like a lot.
Thanks much, Vanessa

Fragrance evaporates out of CP, you do use more when you make it. In MP I go 1/4 to 1/2 ounce per pound. For CP it is more like .7 ounce per pound.

Looking forward to seeing pic's of the soap, glad it turned out well for you!

Thanks Bramble Momma - that's what I was thinking, but I was unable to find the answer until now! Sounds like I used about the right amount.

Congrats!
Depending on the strength of the FO, I use 0.7 to 1 oz. PPO.

Ok. I have to ask. How do you do the swirl? I wanted to try that today but couldn't figure it out. I was using a floral eo and so I knew it would sieze on me (and yes, it did) and so I didn't know if I could do a swirl "quick" enough. Do you seperate your batch and color one and then "mix" the 2 together? Thanks.

Wow!!! That's an awesome looking bar!! Congrats and welcome to the addiction. I've been doing this for years and my swirls still don't look that good. Put a bar of this in your drawer and forget about it. Take it out again in about 2 years for a comparison. You're doing great!!!
