Lard and avo soap

[navigator9]

So here's a pic of my lard, olive, coconut, avocado, castor soap with buttermilk and oatmeal. I always cheat and test a sliver as soon as I unmold...I just can't wait any longer than that! And if that's any predictor of what this soap will be like, I'm already loving it. Sooo creamy. These are made in my favorite round mold, Crystal Lite containers, and scented with Brambleberry's OMH.

Very pretty. I love my lard/avocado soap. And love buttermilk in soap too.

Oooh....I think I can smell this through the screen! I love the beautiful, natural, simple look of it. Somehow, it whispers "luxury" at me.

They look fantastic! I love the speckled look oatmeal gives.

Thanks guys, glad you like them! I'm one of those oddballs who actually likes "plain" soaps. :crazy: And yes Shunt, there's something special about buttermilk in soap. Whenever I buy buttermilk to use in a cooking recipe, I always have leftover, so I freeze it in an ice cube tray to use in soap when I'm ready.

Love the simple recipe and it is SCREAMING luxury lather and skin feel. I especially LOVE the light and shadow contrast and the woven basket texture in this photo!!!
