I realized this weekend that I am down to my last bar of my favorite soap and decided to make more. The batch contains unrefined Shea butter, giving the top layer the creamy color and I replaced all of the water with goat milk. I added wheat grass powder to the bottom layer and the pencil line is coffee grounds. It is still too soft to cut, but I couldn't resist slicing a bit off one end to see how it came out. I'm pretty happy.

Good job! Good thing you remembered you needed more before you ran out. or you might have cried. I would have. I think it cameout great. Good job!
 
That came out great! One of these days, I might try a pencil line, but I will need a loaf mold to do that.. maybe eventually :)
 
It kinda does. It was just too soft to cut and I was too impatient. I probably should have waited until tonight to cut because I had to rub out all sorts of drag marks, but they came out easily enough and the soap looks great. I will definitely be doing the pencil line thing again!
 
VERY nice! Love it! I think you have inspired me to try my own pencil line now... :)
The colors are beautiful together! So calming. I love that shade of green.
