    Watermelon soap - still haven’t found the pinks I’m looking for

    Like the seeds in the punks. I like that fragrance oil, nice to work with.

    Splash Swirl

    Beeswax in Soap

    Do you use any additives like sorbitol or sugar and a chelator?

    Beeswax in Soap

    I have been wondering for the last few days about what temperature you soap at with soy wax. I have been toying around with trying a palm free recipe. I was using lard but some family members were icked by that. Hate using palm because of the orangutans but I can make some nice designs with it...

    Watermelon Modified Luna Swirl

    So, first off, I really love the FO on this. I used BB Watermelon Sugar and it behaved very well. Didn't slow down trace but did not accelerate it. I used nurture soaps force of nature for the neon green, mad micas flirt with a smidgen of NS material girl, Snake island and Winter White. I didn't...

    Rain drops

    The FO was easy to work with. I had to wait for the batter to thicken to medium trace before I poured it. Scent wise, I'll have to take a sniff when I get home to think of something I can compare it to.

    Delicate swirl

    Thank you everyone for the feedback. I can try explaining what I did to get when I get back home, don't knownif I will do it justice. I was thinking about setting up a YouTube channel or doing on Instagram eventually so i can share how I'm doing some of these better.

    Rain drops

    I think this is considered a drop swirl but had fun doing this. I used BB Coastal rains FO and spilt the batter into 4 equal parts. I used Mad Micas Snow white, Aphrodite, Twilight Blue and Peacock for the colors. Didn't do a good job of beating down the mold after everything was poured so...

    Beeswax in Soap

    I was really hoping @Sting would reply since he's using it in his soaps too. I am going to check out that thread and look at some of nonas stuff too.

    Beeswax in Soap

    I am getting some bees this Saturday, super excited to start my bee keeping journey. I am trying to think of some ways to incorporate some beeswax or honey potentially into some soap. Now from what I have been reading seems like there's some mixed reactions to it. I was thinking of adding...

    Delicate swirl

    Awww, thank you! I'm still constantly learning and experimenting.

    Delicate swirl

    I probably phrased it wrong but what I meant by a cyclone was to describe the spiraling motion I did with the hanger tool.
