Hi Soapers,
after being away from soaps for some months I am back now.
I made a Lavendel soap with sugar (sorry, posting a picture would be too much time and energy consuming for me, since I haven't done this yet). It is a very nice soap with violet swirl...and undissolved sugar spots all arround the soap. Those are like little dots - just like grainy suggar looks like. I took the part of prepaired oils and mixed sugar in and than add it to the oils before adding lye. Obviously I didn't mix (long) enough.
I was hoping that the spots would go away with curing time but the soap stays pretty much the same all the time. It has been on the curing rack from November 12 and spots are staying there, just like the first day, no brown colour.
I wonder if they would turn brown in next few weeks or even worse : could this be harmfull in any way or should I promote it like a sugar scrub
?
Does any one have the same experience? What can I expect?
Claire
