I have been playing around with a couple different projects - take a look at what I've done so far!
This was an experiment with pumpkin puree and cream and BB's Pumpkin Spice FO. I knew it'd discolor, so I only added the fragrance to half the soap (the side that turned brown). I really like how this one smells, and I love how the swirls turned out!
Here is a
Gingersnap soap I tried with coconut milk. It took a good 3 weeks
before I could tolerate the smell, though - I think the coconut milk
smell is too much for me. I had also hoped it would turn more brown
like the Pumpkin one above, but no such luck. And unfortunately, I used
a slab mold, and these were the biggest bars I've made, and the ones I
like the least... I think after another 3 weeks, I'll love them.
Here's an invigorating soap I made for my guests - it's a blend of
anise and peppermint EO. Will really get you going in the morning!
I love this one
the best. I am trying out a luxe formula, and this one is made with all
kinds of goodies - shea butter and avocado oil, and is scented with
NG's Christmas Pine FO - smells really "fir-y" and I love it!
The pattern turned out so great! I started out with a funnel pour, but
the soap started to thicken too much for the funnel, so I finished with a
faux funnel pour. Love how these colors look and the soap feels great!
I made some
peppermint EO soaps with cream for a friend who loves mint-y soaps. The
top one kind of looks like the soap's wearing a bikini :)
This one is for a friend who cannot tolerate scents or
colorants. She just wanted a relatively plain bar of soap in a fun
mold. I made for her a soap with honey, beeswax, and oatmeal. It
smells great, and I love how it feels. The mold was only around $6 from
BB, which was a bonus!
