Charcoal & Pumpkin Swirl

[BlueValkyrie]

I'm back soaping, and back on the forum for the first time in ages :wave:

Pretty happy with this one, my first swirl attempt - it's a hanger swirl, with activated charcoal, and pumpkin and red palm oil making the orange (it looks more yellow in the picture than in real life).

This batch is a gift for my boss in return for a favour - we're a pyrotechnics company, so I was hoping for a flame effect. Not sure that worked entirely, but I like how it turned out. I cut a couple of bars horizontally out of curiosity also.

They are looking good.

Welcome back. I've just been drawn back in myself. Your soaps look great...very smoky, pumpkin-y, spooky and witch-like. Definitely see the flame effect. Did you scent them?

Whoa, that's some awesome looking soap! Those colors are funky and very festive for Halloween. As DWinMadison asked, scent?

Thanks everyone

I was aiming for a "manly" scent, so just used some EO of tea tree and eucalyptus.
