Honey Bee Soap
Recipe Instructions
Used 3 oz aloe as water discount. Added aloe to oils and thickens tremendously. Layered 2/3 of top with packing bubbles and 1/3 with calendula petals. Attempted to do a swirl but thickened so much probably won't show up. This would be good for 2 layered textured colors, but no swirls. Unmolded after 18 hrs still pretty soft. No leftover soap.
