🔸 DOS 🔸 What is Dreaded Orange Spots?! Common Soap Troubleshooting and Problems.

In this video I go over what dreaded orange spots are in cold process soap making. I give you some tips on how to over come or prevent Dreaded Orange Spots DOS in soap. You may find yourselt asking what are these orange spots on my soap?

Here are some factors that can contribute to DOS:
Rancid oils: Using oils that have passed their expiration date and have become rancid is the most likely cause of DOS.
Oxygen: Soap stored in oxygen turns orange faster than soap stored in nitrogen.
Hard water: Using tap water with hard water minerals can cause DOS.
Sun and humidity: Extreme sun and humidity conditions can cause DOS.
Lye discount: An excessive lye discount can cause DOS.
You need to be aware of the shelf life of the ingredients you use in soap making. Coconut oil can last up to 24 months, avocado oil lasts about 12 months if kept in the fridge, and cocoa butter lasts 2 to 5 years.
