What soapy thing have you done today?

[Zing]

I made this one today. It’s patchouli scented, so some will love it and others will hate it. I did a drop swirl for the first time so interested to see the cut.

Oh, @KiwiMoose , you just never stop. This is gorgeous and I can't wait for the cut. Black and anything really, right?!

 

[Zing]

Swirl is looking mighty good!!! And I love the color combination

Yeah, stranger, glad you're back.

Made lotion bars tonight, this time scented with orange. And just discovered research on the benefits of castor oil for skin issues. Now I'm inspired to make a lotion bar recipe with castor oil. Just need to research properties of essential oils....

I rendered 40# of Tallow for soaps , lotion bars, balms, and candles

I’m so happy with these. I tried the Clyde Slide pour method (YouTube) for the first time. Fragrance is Brambleberries cinnamon cocoa. These are soleseife using more of my collected sea water from the last full/blood moon in January.

Very cool! I have this same mold from amazon but haven't used it yet, can't wait to try!

Oh how pretty - are they soap roses?

 

[jcandleattic]

Nothing. I've done nothing soapy today except read the forum, and think of designs I want to do. I can't wait to get home from the gym tomorrow so I can make my mermaid/seashell sand/beach cupcake soaps, and I thought I might make a rainbow inspired soap. I'm down to my last 4 that are over a year and a half old, so I need some fresh for the selling season. (My selling season isn't until fall though)

I just tried a rainbow soap--scented it with "left the scent on the counter" hahaha some days I think I am losing my mind

Those are the easiest to swirl!! LOL

I'm going to try and ITP swirl with my with a white base and the swirls colored. I tried that one other time, but failed miserably, so I'm crossing my fingers this goes a little better. I have a new technique planned out so am hoping it works this time.

Could be worse last time i forgot the fragrance i put the blender in the bowl turned round to grab it from behind me and by time i turned back the entire blender had wiped out the bowl full of batter and the batter was pouring all over the worktop and onto the wall and floor below. There is only bare floorboards in my soaping room so least it didnt ruin a carpet but i panicked thinking it might seep through the floor boards. Kinda wish i just carried on forgetting the eo and just did a unscented soap

Made my first ever batch of Body Butter with a new recipe. Its cooling right now before whipping it. Fingers crossed.

ETA: Good Lord it smells like Chocolate! Soooo Tempted to taste it

How did it turn out?
