Wood Grain Soap
Recipe Instructions
Colors 1/2 tsp each blended in olive oil:
Brown Pigment
Mica - Black Oyster
Mica - Satin Penny
Mica - Sister Golden
Mica - Gold Finger
Final result was a fail on the wood grain. Even though used full water and only brought batter to emulsion, trace accelerated too fast to pour, so had to be glopped. Also got partial gel. Recipe totally blows.
