    @Farrukh Our soaps don’t contain SLES, so I’d like to ask if you have it already for the saponification, which in fact could produce many bubbles. Also, any particular reason you’re adding Propylene glycol and Glycerol? Keep in mind that Glycerol is also a by product of your saponification, and adding extra Glycerol could modify the composition of your phases (maybe you want to make your soap more transparent).
