This bar turned out better than I thought it would although I think I left it a bit late to add the m&p (white), Smells great. :D

 
Thanks Oceangirl, I must admit, this one didn't smell the best at first after it came out of the mould, it smelt kind of like playdough lol.
 
:eek: Oh dear well they look great :wink:

That is so pretty GG! I love how you incorporated the white MP. Have you tried mixing the two kinds of soap before? I am interested in whether as the CP cures, it shrinks away from the MP.....my feeling is that it would 'hug' the MP tighter, but as I haven't yet tried it I have no idea! :wink:

Tanya, so far there hasn't been any shrinkage however the m&p is posing a bit of an issue as i'm not sure how I should present this soap for sale when the time comes as the blob of whit m&p sweats but the cp is fine.

Beautiful, I would LOVE to see how you mixed MP and CP together, no idea you could make it look like that!

MrsJones, I made the cp batch up, placed it in the mould and before it set up I poured the m&p in but unfortunately the cp had already started to sset up so a majority stayed on top so I just mixed it through :D
 
For the future...try Aussie Soap Supplies low-sweat Coconut MP base - very good!

Maybe wrap in cellophane just prior to selling? I know that many CP vendors wrap their soap in shrink wrap or cellophane, so the CP part should be fine with that?
