Ohhh that is soooo going on the tutorials listing, Christy submitted a written version of her 6 color pop mica swirl; I have just emailed her to see if I could include these as well. Wonderful link

Thanks for mentioning it!

[Vonna]

wow!! That was a very helpful link..Thanks!!

 

[madpiano]

did you see the link to her 15-colour swirl soap ??? She must be swirl queen !!

 

[IanT]

lol I did! and I think she is! lol... I have seen one that was like a 32 color swirl somewhere that was NUTS....anyone have that link?!?

It was like a million different colors in one bar.... the most I have ever seen

 

[madpiano]

I don't even have that many different pigments here....lol

My soap never stays below thick trace for long enough to even attempt this soap. Maybe one day I will make it in a Castille, although it would be a shame to ruin such a good looking soap with the slime that Castille is in this water.

I like it too. I haven't swirled yet.

Cheers,

very helpful, i want to try again, i guess the trick is thin trace?

 

[IanT]

yeahhh I think that is the key, otherwise the colors will be too superficial (close to the top where you poured from) ... I couldnt figure it out at first but after much trial and error i pour at SUPER thin trace now...

 

[agriffin]

well, but then too thin a trace, I get more of a marbled look. I have been doing alot of funnel swirls...those are hard to mess up! Well, unless you get a thick trace...then it doesn't work too well.
