This is made with my homemade melt and pour - few problems it loves to sweat and I'm not convinced the lather is that great but hey Ho it's a learning curve anyway I think it worked out quite well.

I had to take a little slice off because the embeds were covered.

I TRULY love the look of this soap, for personal reasons! It is very fitting, as I have INCREDIBLY fair skin, and my husband has very dark skin (Peruvian)...and this soap seems iconic. I've been thinking about making some personalized soaps for our family like this. Great example! Beautiful soap!
 
OH thats pretty!! I adore the subtlety of the neutral colors too - very sweet and elegant. Is the surrounding soap MP or CP?
 
Hi it's all homemade melt and pour like I said to wolfie it's translucent not clear as I wanted but I think it looks ok - my son in law suggested I shave the top as the embeds were buried it worked but still worried about the lather factor. One day I will make something I feel is perfect but I'm getting there - I've been making soap for 6 weeks now and I love and hate that every batch is different. It is ridiculously addictive. I get excited at the unmolding every time.
 
I think the opaqueness adds a lot of value in this look. I'm incredibly jealous.
 
Terr it was easy just lay the pre made in beds in the mould first then pour your m & p over leave to set in freezer 15 mind unmold you may need to shave the first bit if the embeds are covered viola
 
That is really pretty! I love the colors and design.
Just a suggestion - if you're having problems with the soap sweating, that could be because you're putting it in the freezer to set. MP doesn't like the freezer or even the refrigerator. Next time try letting it set at room temperature and see if that helps.
