Thread: Melting down shaving soaps.

So, hopefully i can make this story short...
I recently bought a cool, little scuttle with flying geese on it along with a matching brush (which i upgraded from boar to silvertip...that was cool.)
Okay, back to the story...so, i had three large pucks of col. conk, unknown puck of homemade soap and a puck of Tobac. The first two melted nicely and quickly and were poured into smaller containers for shaping. However, the Tobac was highly resistant to melting and eventually gave in a little and yeilded me some unsightly lumps, which i went ahead and poured anyhow.
Question: What on earth is in Tobac that could resist microwaves and why am i putting it on my face? Sigh...i cant get enough of the smell, so i dont want to give it up, but im kindof concerned as to what its made up of and should i really be putting it on my face...i have been breaking out a little more since i started using it, but its hard to pinpoint, since my acne seems to be cyclic too.
Anyone have some suggestions or know more about Tobac?
