1st try at a tiger stripe

[Derpina Bubbles]

Had to try after admiring everyone's tiger stripes all this time. I've done a modified dandelion zebra stripe but for some reason never a tiger.

*The tiger bit me by the way. I was using the spatula to scrape the bowl and pushed too hard near the bowls edge, it flicked, I wore a bit of batter to the face. There I am like golem "It burns, it burns us". Fresh batter on your lips = ouch. The drops on my cheek I didn't even feel.

I also did a cherry blossom yesterday. I didn't use a technique. I just put soap in the mould random. This you can tell . I call it blob swirl.

They are both beautiful. The blossom reminds me of fresh blooms.

Oh. Oh my. This is softcore. Your suffering was well worth the effort.

I'd say you tamed that tiger! Sweet!

How many years of expierence before you make something so incredible?

Gah, SO jealous of your tiger stripe. Absolutely beautiful, so crisp.

The tiger stripes are absolutely beautiful, but I love the blobs as well!

Beautiful soaps! The tiger stripe and cherry blossum soaps are both gorgeous. Did you scent the tiger stripe soap?

I had to look up the dandelion zebra stripe technique you mentioned, which lead me to read about tilted zebra stripe and so on... Now I have lots of new things added to my list of things to try!

I've had some fresh soap batter splatter on my face as well. I was able to rise it of right away, but it left a bit of a red mark for a few days. Hope you didn't get any serious burns!

Thanks all and yep face is fine, just some peeling on the lips. I forgot to mention the fragrance QueenBee, which is a blend of 5-fold orange, patchouli and black pepper EOs (4:2:1). My list of things to try keeps getting longer thanks to this forum too!

Beautiful looking soaps! I love the tiger one. I might attempt to do it at some point, but I'm not brave enough now.

They are both amazing, but i kinda lean towards the cherry. The random swirl turned out beautiful!

Glad there was no serious harm done... Except now you might have to add lip balm to your list of things to make!

I love those stripes very nice .

Both beautiful but I am partial to your blob swirl. The colors are so perfect together. It is such a soft and feminine look- well done.
