Good Lye!

I am happy with this lye. The soaps came out beautifully. I could unmold them in 3 days and take a few more days to cut them for larger pieces. The lye is as good as those I purchased from local store and yet more economical.

My favorite lye

I've tried lye from many different places and I like this one the best. I like the 1kg jars because they're easy to pour from.
