  1. hi dapan, how long has the alkanet root been infused in oil? my first trial ended up with a purple color which faded out very soon after the soap is made. maybe need to infuse for longer time.

  2. hi joanna, my alkanet root was infused with evoo for 3 weeks.
    is that too long or too short? supposed to leave for months right?

    i just checked the soap, it turned into grayish purple color now. oh.my! >_<
