So my indigo turned out ok, I suppose. It thickened so much I had some air pockets in spite of smacking on the counter. The first pic is it gelling. I had it covered with a plastic tray on a heat pad. It gelled within minutes literally! The Orange rounds were left over pieces of my sun embed from my landscape soap. It's scented with Daystar's ahoy matey.
The top is a normal recipe, 41% tallow I believe, and the white bottom is a salt bar. I cut it within 1-2 hours while in the mold.

These colorful salt bars I did a few weeks back. I love the rainbow look of the bottom. I tried fancy swirls, but the bb lychee red tea accelerated enough to cause glopping. Smells so tart! Too bad theyre discontinuing it.
The middle salt rainbow that isn't rectangle has been used already, so it looks more rounded. I wanted to share the rainbow underside in spite, so I added the pic in.

Oh those turned out so nice! The rainbow one looks like space.. So cool!

Their site has said that scent was being discontinued for a year now. .. Wonder if it really is?
 
I love the Beautiful rainbow colours on your second soap, I could look at that forever and your sun embeds are great fun.
 
Tvivian, I asked Tina, and she said it isn't popular enough and is being discontinued... but I too question it.
Thank you all! I am loving salt bars right now (for my use) and am trying to be creative with them, but I find it very challenging. Thx again!
 
Nice! I love the suns on the tops and that's a great way the colors are streaming through the salt bar.

Everyone who smells Lychee Red Tea loves it- well, everyone I know who's smelled it. I don't know why they don't change the name to something more appealing. I'm certain it would sell better that way.
 
I saw your review, and I almost posted a review backing you. My cell failed me and it didn't go through. Your review was a yr plus ago, so it needs revamping. I'll try to do that tonight to support the lychee red tea lol!
