Thank you! They were a lot of fun to make.@sarahmarah love the embeds!
This is gorgeousSo this is my um “stylized” pink grapefruit soap. I wanted to try my hand at soap dough so I made some grapefruit slices last week, sliced them up and used them as embeds here. I’m still learning how this vegan/palm free base behaves and I should have left this sit for about a week before planing it. Don’t ask me what happened to my other two test bars that fell off my planer .
Two micas used Pot O’ Gold + Voodoo from Mad Micas mixed with TD. My take away here besides letting my soap sit longer is that I’m going to do canes instead of individual slices so that embed placement is easier and more uniform. Overall this was fun. I’m going to try it again

@dibbles Thanks! I used 1/2 teaspoon of the gold and 3/4 teaspoon of the black and each portion was about 0.875 lbs of oils. They are recommended at 1/2 teaspoon PPO. I didn't want a dark black, more of a rich brown, so didn't up the black clay too much from the recommended amount. I did hydrate them in some of the water before using them.@Bari b this is so pretty. You got really good colors from your clays. I just got those clays from Nurture this week and haven't had time to play with them yet. How much did you use?
