First time tying a soap from our u/TheStallionPartThree, and this base is solid! It lathers easily, hydrates gradually, and produces slick lather. On the first try!
The scent was fairly faint to my nose, but I’m dragging a stubborn cold with me so that might just be me. Kudos to the Stallion!

Interesting discoloration on that smush… I wonder what caused that?

No idea. The envelope showed no sign of damage, and i would have expected simple oxidation to manifest more uniformly. A mystery.
Luckily, it hasn’t messed with latherability

Mine looks similarly, btw

Must be something in the air over in that part of the world 🤣
I did a pretty typical packing job with these. Scrape out some soap with a plastic scraper, smear it on wax paper, fold the wax paper over to smush the smush out, etc. No skin contact or any other funny business. Who knows!
