I had to make more soap...addicting, ahh!
So I decided to make my fourth batch. I used fresh avocado puree, co, rice bran, Shea and made me some salt bars at 100% of oil wt. Woo hoo! It worked!
The glistening are the pours, the matte finish my hard bars.
I had left over, no waste, so I poured a thin amount into my tiny 20 oz loaf mold. I then cut it in half for two thin swirl salt bars....and I still had left overs so I poured it into a tablespoon. Popped that puppy out. An embed perhaps???
Thx for looking. I am mighty proud. Oh, it's a fo blend of neroli Shea blossom and sweetgrass from bb.

Very pretty! I really like your color combos, very classy. :-D I'll be interested to hear how you like your scent combo. I soaped with BB's Neroli and Shea Blossom and I absolutely detest it. When it was curing I had to move it to another part of the house because it was so strong. I'm giving that one away as quickly as I can because I really want it out of my house, lol. If I can blend with something that will cut the fake (loud) floral, I'd be a happy soaper. But you sure made some beautiful soap!
 
KristaY, I was on the fence as tthe neroli Shea blossom. Not a fan of florals, and had received two samples. I used one bottle and it weighed out .4 oz, so I added some sweetgrass which I love love love. Since I wasnt impressed but didn't hate it, I find it is a descent combo. I probably will try salty mariner or sea moss (i think that's what it's called??), for my salt bars. If not, this combo may work for me. Sorry you despised it. I feel that way about one fo I bought. Hate getting something home and being so disappointed and out money on it!
