Ugly soap contest!

[toxikon]

Here is my super-fast trace soaps that I had to mush into the mold like play-doh. I'm glad I managed to work a bit of activated charcoal into it, I think they look kinda neat. These are the nicest looking ones.

I love the premise of that, but I'm wondering what it says about me that I don't find that soap ugly at all!!

If you like the look of nicely cooked meatloaf laced with ketchup sauce, this soap looks great.

They are actually really cool!! Charcoal looks great!!

I made these to give to my co-workers for Christmas. I wasn't wild about my mica drizzle on the bigger bars or the fact that my MP snowmen melted a bit. The scent was called Tis the season & it smelled like cinnamon & pine trees until the scent morphed! I didn't give them away because they now smell like a freshly opened canister of Play-Doh! I'd like to rebatch them but I don't know how to mask that scent!

I really like them, toxikon!

Hmmm... play dough? Maybe the scent would cook off a bit, patchouli play dough? :-?

Try again, toxikon. Those aren’t ugly at all, unless the texture is bad and I can’t see it in the photo.

You could try to confetti them. The scent doesn’t seem to carry over for me.

I was pleasantly surprised when I chopped the bars up. I was convinced they'd be grey mush full of air-bubbles. I'll have to try harder next time. :mrgreen:

An attempt to make some confetti soap gone terribly wrong in the top photo. I grossly miscalculated the amount of confetti, it just went so wrong LOL, and as if that wasn't bad enough, the bottom photo is the rebatch, I really wanted to forget it ever happened, and then I saw this thread

I kind of like the way the original confetti soap looked. Would it not stay together because of too much confetti? That'd be the only reason I'd have rebatched that.

Ah, raw meat/meatloaf rebatch. Yep.

 

[dibbles]

This whole thread just reaffirms my decision to not rebatch. Ever.

Black mica/charcoal. Or salt it out before rebatching.


I do have some scraps set aside, I’ll try to test my theory soon

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner! I laughed so hard tears were rolling down my eyes!! That 2nd pix is a winner! You just made my weekend! I needed a good laugh, it was a rough week. Thank you for this.

The short one is what happens when a newb mixes 5 lbs of oils for a 5 lbs soap mold!! DUH!! I had to figure out what to do with the left over!! I stuck it in a glass bowl! UGLY!! I have about 6 of these! I'm holding onto them until I learn something about embeds.
That's my one and only CP, BTW! I'm still suspicious that I used too much colorant...

Kittish, that's right, it wouldn't stick together, just sort of fell apart when I touched it.

And you are so very welcome DH got quite a kick out of the second pic as well

I proudly submit the ugliest meatloaf soap... Mine even has sickly yellowy/white/translucent stripes and chunks - looking almost exactly like fat ribbons. Oh yeah, I think I'm the winner here since all of your posted soaps are gorgeous compared to this ugly duckling...

I submit for your careful consideration this crazy gross soap. I've posted it here before, but some of y'all might have missed this masterpiece.

Lol, I honestly don't think that it's a winner, sorry!! It, IMO, isn't as bad as you think! Funny about the fat ribbons!

 

[Laurabolyard]

I'm somewhat encouraged! I cut down my ugly, color bleeding, lumpy mess, now that it was dry enough to do so. Not AS bad. It's ALMOST what I was going for. Note to self, NEVER freeze a rebatch!

The top became the bottom.
