mms twilight-inspired series -- anyone tried it?

hoping the pic shows up. i've tried volturi, in a black and purple swirl with activated charcoal and pop mica. love, love, love the fragrance, though it's a tad on the faint side and the soap riced on me -- but salvageable, just got a marbled texture. just got Jacob, which i can't wait to try in a black and dark green swirl. anyone else have experience with this series?

I've been wanting to give these a go for months... they're just a tad on the spendy side for samples though, so haven't gotten a chance yet. Please do keep us updated on your experiments!

made a second batch of Volturi in a violet-black swirl with a higher percentage of fragrance, soaped cool and just used a wire whisk. to my dismay, the violet turned an ugly shade of dark brown --- the good news is that as it cures, the brown is morphing back to violet. will post pics when it's a little more cured, but i really do like this scent. still haven't soaped with Jacob...

Those soaps look so glamorous, paillo! I would not be able to resist stopping at your booth (if you were to have a booth, that is...)

That's a beautiful soap. How did you manage that with a misbehaving FO!

pure luck! the second it started to separate i poured it real quick, and i love how it marbled. i couldn't duplicate it if i tried
