Wonderful experiment! The soap looks great--now I want to try it!

WOW!!!! Love that swirl!

The easiest way to figure out how much they hold is to fill them with water, pour the water out and weigh it.

Sounds lovely! Pictures Please!!!

Love that green!

I recently made a soap with a couple of oz of coco butter, swirled it with coco powder, and scented it with almond and a little vanilla select. Everyone swears they smell the chocolate. The power of the mind is an amazing thing.

Beautiful!

I clicked like too!

I can honestly say it smelled worse than anything else I've made soap with (so far). I scented mine with almond and orange. Wait till you wash with it, I was very suprised what a good soap it made!!

Very nice!!! :D

I left my beer in a glass overnight and then actually boiled it to remove any alcohol. I then froze it and added my lye to the beer cubes--overkill maybe, but it didn't volcano on me at all. It did smell really bad. My soap is now cured and it turned out to be a really nice soap. Your soaps...

I've used tumeric often as a colorant for swirls. I've never colored the whole soap batch with it. I also never actually use the spice, I infuse it in olive oil for several days and then strain through a coffee filter. I just use the colored oil. It gives me a smooth color and not a speckled...

Sorry about the new mold. The soap looks good though, rather than a rebatch, why not just trim the edges up a bit?

Beautiful job!

Wow! First batch?? Incredible! Great job!

Turned out very nice!!!!

I mildly scented a soap with straight up peppermint essential oil. It smelled so strong at first. It's now 4 months old, the scent is very mild, but seems to be a little stronger when the soap is wet and bubbly. No tingle or burn.

So true, I love using peppermint essential oil, but use a very light hand and just 'mildly' scent. I worry about burning eyes (and other places too).

Thats some of the prettiest scratch and dent I've ever seen!

I'm lucky I guess. I have well water, it's been tested and it's very pure and 'soft'. I've used distilled too and I can't tell the difference in the soap--even the bars that are almost a year old.
