My First Soap!

I didn't have any soap mold to start out with, my friend suggested me to use milk carton as a starter mold. I am a huge fan of "Horizon Organic Milk", so I can finally put those milk carton to use. I start out making only 500g of soap so in case I mess it up there are still some oil left for me :) I hate making mistake, so I review my soap formula over and over and make sure everything's in correct percentage. Time to stir away!! As I was mixing all the oil together and stir them, I constantly measure the temperature to make sure they don't go too high, anything that is above 104 F degree the oil will slowly lose it's nutritious value, and I sure don't want that, if I'm working hard on something, might as well make it the best :)


I was surprised the soap actually come out nicely. Here's my first soap made by myself "Grapeseed Eucalyptus Soap". I'm counting down the days till I can use the soap, can't wait :)
