Guest guest Posted May 18, 1999 Report Share Posted May 18, 1999 Oh Lydia, oh Lydia, oh Lydia (isn't that an old song or something?), Well, on to my question....I bought some hibiscus flower petals and did both an infusion in virgin olive oil and as a tea, but the infusion oil has no added color (I did the warm oven or stove top method). The tea does have color, but I'm not sure what the end CP soap color will be. Can you enlighten me? TIA, P.S. I haven't noticed any scent in either the infused oil or tea. >We are going to do a special on this next month along with rose petal and >hibiscus flower powder. Powders work nicely for scent enhancement and some >color the soap also. _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

Have you looked on my site for the small test batch recipe...that may be a way to go if you are not sure what something will do to your soap?
