New carrot and orange soap!

[treatyourselfsoaps]

Loving the smell of this one, used organic carrot juice as the liquid, surprised it didn't burn with the lye! Can't wait to cut already, going to gel this one which is unusual for me.

lovely color! can't wait to see it cut. can i ask what kind of soap mold you were using? which supplier? it looks very nice

 

[treatyourselfsoaps]

Thanks. It is from the Moulds Shop in Cheshire in the UK. They describe it as "wooden loaf with silicone liner #2" It's the first time I've used this one so will keep you posted on how it fairs!

The mould holds 1200g of soap.

It's unanimous! Beautiful soap! :clap: Love the orange color. Can I ask if you put any scent in? I'm working on a carrot puree soap recipe and thinking of adding ground ginger. Can't decide if I want to add scent or if the carrot and ginger will accomplish that for me.

Thanks everyone!
KristaY I added some orange essential oil, the overall scent is quite earthy, which I was going for as a lot of my other soaps are quite strong smelling and sweet.

Looks aweseome Do you think the color will hold?

That's exactly what I was considering adding, lol! I appreciate the info.

That's awesome. I want to make a carrot soap also, so it's nice to see that it doesn't turn brown! Did you use a scent at all.

They also sell a mold just like that at brambleberry.com

I didn't read the post on what scent you added, I see you wrote that you added orange essential oil. I wish I could smell it I just made an orange patchouli soap today sort of like karma from lush, because i loved that fragrance so much.

I've made the coconut milk and organic carrot juice soap, I had great reviews from my friends .
