First attempt at color

[cliff]

This is my 7th batch, so I thought I would try some color. Nothing crazy, just something simple. I used spirulina powder to get the green. Not sure if I added too much. I also CPOPed it. This time, CPOP worked great. I didn't get any bubbles on top like last time and I was able to unmold and cut this morning. I scented with lemongrass and patchouli EO's.

Looks great cliff. That's a very pretty swirl and design.

Very nice, that is a great green and I bet the lemongrass and patch make a nice blend

Those look amazing! The colors go so well with the scent & the swirls on top look REALLY good! Beautiful soaps!

Thank you all for the kind compliments. I actually really like the way it smells. I did almost half and half with the two EOs. A tad more lemongrass than patchouli. The only EOs I currently had were lavender, patchouli, and a little tester of lemongrass so not many options there. I googled spirulina first before adding it straight into the batch to be sure it was safe to do instead of infusion.

Yes! That would be a fitting scent. Maybe have a dark chocolate color soap with a green stripe across the middle. That would be even better.

Looks beautiful. I love using spirulina powder in my soap. I just love how the green turns out!

Simple! You are too funny. They're gorgeous. I really like the colored layer on the top of the natural soap. In fact, I might just copy you with my first color batch...

Well, obviously, I'm going to have to add spirulina powder to my next order! Love the green it produces.
