Coconut Milk Soap (what a mess)

Soooo....I guess I haven't gotten the hang of soaping with coconut milk. I have no earthly idea what happened to this batch of soap. Maybe I measured something wrong, I don't know! Mixing the coconut milk with the lye was a little tricky. That may have been my mistake. All I know is it came out an oily mess!! Smells good though.:)

This is the ugliest soap I have ever made. I have used probably only 2 bars of this loaf, I just think it's so ugly I can't bear to take it in the shower with me LOL These pictures are when I first made it back in September (I think) it's even uglier now.
Just thought I would share this ugly soap with my blog readers in case you guys needed a laugh today :-) I will be trying to learn how to rebatch this batch of soap. I've never rebatched before but I guess now is as good a time as any to learn. Live & Learn.

Look at the oil just running out! I must have measured something wrong. But it still lathers up really well in the shower and it's creamy too.
