pine tar: the ugliest soap I've made....

[green soap]

My very first PT soap! Used 15% PT and 0.5 oz PPO spearmint EO. Aloe vera juice to dissolve the lye. Also includes RBO, CO, cocoa and shea butters. The scent is somewhere between spearmint and pine tar, pretty good actually. I added the PT directly from the warmed can to the emulsified oils/lye on the scale - and spatula stirred. Will move faster next time (I have some gaps). We can't wait to try the soap in a month or so. This soap made my pulse beat faster.

Looks nice. Mine looks like I used an axe and was blind.

i don't think it looks that bad! just a rustic brown soap! did you sweat a little too? I tend to get a little sweaty when doing something new....

That's one of the better looking pine tar soaps I've seen. Pretty smooth!

Thank you belinda, neeners and judymoody! I like 'rustic brown', better description than 'ugly'. After a stamp and a label it might look somewhat acceptable.

No perspiring, this does not happen until it gets to above 100F, I am permanently cold.

I think they look great...far from ugly. It's not every soap that needs to be swirly, glittery or sweet smelling lol. I'd love to buy a bar of that.
