Looks really nice all things considered! That circle is probably there to stay, but it might become less noticeable as it ages. I love the smell of oatmeal soap.
I am dying to make soap, but I just don't have any time with all my kidding preparation! Hearing about your soap making adventures is helping to tide me over though. Are you going to make any more batches in the near future? I see some available space on that drying rack. 😜
You still have time to make soap! If you wait until your does kid, then you really won't have time! 😋 I'm glad this thread is helping to hold you over until you are able to make more soap of your own. I'm not quite sure when I'll make my next batch, but I don't think it will be too long from now! I thought about just taking a step back and making a plain, old "naked" batch, since not too much can go wrong with that. But I will say, I am very determined to make a pretty, un-cracked oat and honey batch, so who knows what I'll make next! Yep, I still have quite a bit of drying rack (aka closet shelve) space left! Gotta fill it all up! 😁
How many batches of soap have you made so far? What scents were/are they?
Looks like the crack was pretty shallow! Is the circle from the overheating as well?
Yes, it is. It only the top 1/4 inch or less. I can't imagine what it would have done if I didn't cool it down!! The bottom was already starting to come out of the crack the way it was!! The circle is probably from it overheating as my other soaps didn't have one, but I'm not positive.
