Browsing soap pics

Yay! Thanks for the dig @amd !
It does look like an impression mat indeed! As for the planing.. yes, maybe. Planing and painting could explain the stripes and unevenness of the color on some of the skulls that make them look more ghost-like. The upper edge of the single bar also looks like some color has been planed off, especially compared to the freshly cut picture. Though I'm wondering if both pictures are from the same batch or if there is just a slight difference in pour and color between batches.

^^Ah, there we go, I think you nailed it! Planing and all. And thanks for correcting the artist.

Just one more go-back to skulls, this time from Eden Gorgos. Then I'm done again for a year!

I'm realizing more and more I'm a sucker for pretty colors, especially reds.. like these two:
Au Sens Du Maroc

And glamoursoapsGB

Though I also love this minty green colored soap by Adam Regester. It looks so fresh!

Or this pretty blue woad colored soap (a colorant on the top of my to try list) by me do it meself - i know she's been featured here already, but it was the best woad colored soap I could find and she shares a lot of great information about color-experimentation on her blog.

Lastly I love the sense of texture the different colorants bring to this soap made by ghas.

Ooh, I especially like the glamoursoapGB. And that woad colorant truly is beautiful. I have no problem seeing the same soaper repeatedly. I do try to mix it up, but sometimes it can't be helped.

Here's another with red for you, szaza, from Claudia Eliaza:

@Dawni Do you know what it says "NOTsoap" on the bottom ? seemed odd. I always wonder why someone would make this shape or Cube as it is not easy to roll in the hands.
They are pretty though

The business name is This is Not Soap. On IG it's thisis_notsoap ^^

It's one of those I call "gift soaps" that don't get used, but sit on display in the bathroom... At least for me, unless I run out of other soap, this is what I'd do with it lol

Very cute though, right?

 

[Lin19687]

Ahh, I see. Odd name. I don't know what IG is

 

[Dawni]

Ahh, I see. Odd name. I don't know what IG is

Oh I'm sorry! IG is Instagram
Here's another one I stumbled across just now...

It's not in english but the translation says it is.. soap bottle "beer" and soap "fish"
She also does fruits, pastries, pizza, pickles & olives, among other things..
I always wonder how she makes them. They look very much like the polymer clay stuff people make.
Interesting, no?

 

[Lin19687]

LOL, I don't do IG so that may be why I didn't know it . Funny my DD made an IG for my soap Biz lol but I don't do anything with it she does, not I should say not

Found you there! Hehe you have very pretty soaps! By the way, in case you didn't notice, the Instagram link on your website doesn't take you to your page. I searched your website name and found it hehehe

I am not aware how much Instagram actually helps a business, but there are a number of soapers who sell using the app, or at least advertise through it.

PS.
I edited my above post

 

[Lin19687]

Ah TY, DD was suppose to do that. I will have to go see if I can change it.
Thank you, they are just Rustic nothing fancy which I like

Edit, just went to my webpage but I don't have IG on there, just FB. I did change the link on FB but can't even find the IG button. I am sure it is just me lol

I'll message you privately

All of these are so beautiful.

 

[CaraBou]

Incredible, and very creative Bee! All of it - the design, execution and label. You should post more in the Photo Gallery. They'll get a lot more individual attention there, plus this space is for posting the works of "others". Though it is very possible someone will end up posting some of your work here - so much fits the themes of "inspiring" or "lust"!

Here's an old one from Princess Li, a decade or more ago. Wonder what she's up to now.

I did some digging into this soap - Wanelo is a selling website that collects different stores into one site for members, not the maker of the soap. The maker is Wonderland Bath and Beauty:

From this image it looks like it's an impression mat, with a purple and black soap poured, and then planed and the faces painted white.

ETA: I could be wrong about the planing, it looks to me like the finished bar images are a bit flatter than the initial cut image.

I have a silicone mold with those faces. Last year I made a soap with it.

^^Way cool even if not so scary!
