The first 2 are from a couple of months ago, and the cherry was made yesterday. I've got a few more batches made today that I'll be cutting soon as well.

Shea butter, coconut oil, and olive oil scented with a Drakkar-type fragrance from PEAK, can't remember what it was called now! Same recipe as above.

Love the colour on the cherry one, what colour did you put in it or was it from the FO ?
 
Looks great! I love the Peak Wild Cherry FO. The color is perfect for the scent, very pretty.

I used Labcolors cherry I believe. I put to much in without knowing, which is why it is so bright, but I like it. Will see how it turns out after a cure :)

I'm glad to hear that you like the scent! I really like it so far, but I read somewhere that it turns funky after curing for a while, so we will see :)
 
I really like the first one with the dual color, and that pink just looks fun. I'm really really growing to appreciate lab colors. :-D
 
I've heard so much about Drakkar (or however you spell it)- I had no idea it turned soap so dark, or did you color it? That pink is great! I have never tried labcolors, but I may have to give it a go after seeing that!!
 
I love all your soaps ... they look so pretty and like ones I'd want to buy!

A question ... approx what weight do you cut your bars? They look like a great size to use!

My bars are anywhere between 3.5 oz and 5.5 oz depending on the size/shape. The first 2 here are around 3.5 oz, the cherrys are 4 oz. :)

I actually added mica to that one to make it dark - my hubby wanted it to be dark and manly :)
