Or rather lye and oil...
My in-laws were visiting today, and today is my soaping day. I melted my coconut, shea, and crisco, mixed my lye, then breakfast interrupted. When I got back to the soap, all of it was cool, and instead of thinking what I was doing, I mixed the lye in and started stirring away. It was setting up really fast! Of course, once it is poured into molds and I am thinking, I totally forgot to add the liquid oils to the recipe! I was missing 2/5 of the oils (olive and canola). I *thought* something was fishy with how it was setting
My question is, can I scrape what is in the molds out and heat it on the stove, add the liquid oils and stir it in and have it take? I really like the scent I used and would hate to have to dump it!
