Herbal Castille Soap

May 19, I made a batch of herbal Castile and had a post on 5/30.  It was like this, two days after the mold:

The whole body turns smooth cream like soap, weight is noticeably lighter.  Guess that Castile soap with high percentage of olive oil does retains more moisture.

Interestingly I made another batch by end of May, changed the liquid by adding Chinese tea with the other herbs, the soap turned really dark because of the tea:
