Browsing soap pics

Oh that's not how I took it, I just meant I didn't see it and wanted to because I hadn't seen this technique either. The lady who made the soap I posted has quite a few similar to that one. I'd love to see a video of the process.

Ugh I just edited this 3 times because of so many typos!

Oh yes! Now I remember seeing that!

They are done the same way, don't you think?

This is very well done gradient and I like that it shifts to different colors so well.

I have just looked at every soap photo in this thread and am feeling mucho envy for the skill involved in some of these. So inspiring!

Holy Mackerel!!! That is RED.

 

[jules92207]

Whoa. That is one exotic looking soap. Serious red envy.

Now that just looks like it'd turn your shower into the prom scene from "Carrie".

It is stunning tho..

Simple concept, but they do it so well.
(I was browsing soap pics while having insomnia)

I love the geometric look and their stamp goes perfectly with it!

 

[newbie]

They do do it well. I have this one from them. their embeds are so well-distributed and everything seems in balance.

I like this one too. Very simple and the drag marks seems to add to the rustic feeling of the soap. Good use of something people usually get upset about!

I can't wrap my mind around this one. Slab mold obviously, but then what? Then hand swirled.

TViv, man, you need to get with the times! We talked about this one already and someone said they had seen someone manage these perfect whorls in their soap. Not sure how to get that consistently or if this was a one off from a pour, although it does look like a slab at first glance. I was trying to look at the other bars to see if it might be from a log but I can't tell for sure. Some small parts of the swirl don't look like it's from a slab...just can't tell.

I love this deep plum color. And haven't posted anything from Celine yet.

Looks to me like a spin swirl in a slab mold and this bar is the lucky one to get that whorl.

There are just too many soaps in this thread lol! Sorry I guess I can't keep up!... I'll keep them to myself from now on

Just tweaking you. Share away! I just try to put on as many different soaps as possible because each one is slightly different in technique or color or whatever.

I like the pattern in the black and white and I LOVE the whitish on white. Subtle, pretty.

She has a tutorial on how to do these. She puts her pattern on an transparency and then pours a thin layer colored of melt and pour then cuts away the parts of the pattern that is not the color she has poured. she then goes on to the next color. She has a picture of a chevron pattern in purple and white that she has done like this. She uses a sponge to remove the excess white from the back of the rectangle that she is making. She then forms the mold out of this shell and fills with cp
