Hi, made a double batch. To test my slab mold. 2 Loafs only lined 1 mold. Work's for me.
Used Irish Spring from New York scents. Evergreen mica from bramble berry. Oil based TD. Goat milk powder. Simple hanger swirl.
Thank you AliOop. Nice to know I have a fan base. There are many talented people here. All of whom I owe a world of gratitude. For all the help. And putting up with me.
Those are nice! What are your slab mold dimensions? I have a small one--the 6" square one, and I can not figure out how to cut it so I like the bar size and shape. But yours look really good.
It was 6(W)x10(L)x4(H) inches. I figured (W x L x H x .4) the oil weight for 3 inches of height. gave me 2 3x3x10 inch loafs. For 16, 1.25 inch thick bars, no end cuts. hope this helps.
That Irish Springs FO- Does it smell close enough to the actual scent in the finished bars? I have a sample I haven't had the chance to use but OOB, I'm a believer.
Having fun with scents from my past.... a little (milder/mellower) in the finished soap. But still pretty close. Beware, I want to say mine riced a little. Not sure of your supplier, your mileage may vary. thanks
I have used a few scents from New York Scents and have had mixed results. They all smelled fantastic but a couple did not behave well. They have great prices and their selection is growing pretty fast but not enough customer reviews to really know what will happen when using them.
