My new soaps whites, blues and rebatched bars…gotta share…

[Jerry S]

Nice white hard bars with fluffy tops I call Minnesota Snowdrift…

These are nice pink bars with the fluffy tops I call Maui Sunset. Bordering on Castile, so there for the ladies…I used a neon pink coloring with Plumeria FO….

This little grouping of 3 soaps has pink bars, crimson colored bars..these 2 for the ladies as well since they have a lot of OO in them and are really face friendly.... the 7 ounce white bars are hard long lasting bars for the gents…they contain harder oils ..PKO, CO, etc and Castor to keep them bubbly...

I call the blue bars with the fluffy tops Lake Nakomus..from a lake I swam in as a kid…

I put a couple more in here of my rebatched bars that I made from mixing shreds with my hot oils first but rules dictate only 4 images so maybe I'll put them in another thread...anyway I thought I’d share some of what I’ve been soaping the last couple of months...My only dilemma is …”what am I going to dowith all this soap”…since I don’t sell it…I will give a lot of it away to family and friends…Thanks for looking..Jerry

They are all so beautiful, Jerry! I am having some of the same dilemma as you are having. I am making all these soaps and trying to figure out what to do with all of them! I have had one friend tell me that she doesn't use handmade soaps, she only uses bath gel (I am not sure if I am going to make a liquid soap for her in the future or not). If I give all my friends soaps now, then I will feel weird giving them soaps as Yule gifts also, which I plan on doing... So, what do I do with all the soap?? I think I will likely be giving soap to people and will give soaps out for Yule along with some other gifts as well.

Jerry, beautiful sops! I also find it interesting that you have formulas for males and females. Something to think about.

Homeless shelters will gratefully take your extra soaps.

Maybe you could start making your Yule soaps now or in the near future so they are cured by Christmas. You can play with small 1 pd or 1/2 lb batches to monitor how well the bar holds your EO or FO. I tend to use mine in the shower. Between me and my guy, the small batches are going fast

I also like the idea of your soap formulation based on male/female skin needs. The tops are really pretty!

I am making 1 lb batches at this point, and I will be making Yule gifts soon and start things curing so they will be ready for Yule. I have to figure out which scents to use for some of my friends. I have no idea what scents some of my newer friends might like. I also have to make a list of who is getting what sooner then I usually do. (I usually start planning for Yule in October or November, so this is a bit earlier then usual). I apologize for hi-jacking your post, Jerry!
