Thank you! I'd love to see your bars when you make them. Please show us pictures!

One batch of dough makes four of those bars. To that size batch I sprinkle on maybe 1/8 tsp (or less) dry mica and then knead it in, folding over the dough so that all parts of it get some color. I never thought of wetting the mica first.

Hi @Big J I use mica to color my syndet shampoo bars. My recipe ends up being doughlike before I divide it and put it in the press/mold. The last thing I do before dividing and pressing it is add a bit of mica to the dough and knead it just enough to give a marbled look. If I wanted a solid...

I'm not usually a fan of MP, but I really like these . . . even the wrinkly tops!

Very, very pretty!

Perfect little snowman!

Can I tell yesterday's? I made Marie Rayma's Patron-only Hot Cocoa Body Milk recipe. It's a wonderfully light lotion that is not greasy. She has a hot cocoa theme going on this season, and this is a lighter version of the body butter. After years of benefiting from Marie's many recipes, I...
