I bought 2 lbs to try, and made two small batches of CP soap. They came out beautifully, nice and smooth and firm. It is white so it took the mica color very well--a very light pink. I used it at 50% of my oils, added coconut oil, castor oil, avocado, and a small amount of cocoa butter. It is still curing, but I tested an end piece and it lathered well. I might add more coconut oil to get more bubbles, but I will know better after a full cure. I was able to demold and cut within 24 hours. Will definitely be getting more of this.
