I thought I would try something new and not use colorants or FOs (scented with EOs) I tried to make my pictures a bit more "artsy". I'm a HUGE fan of swirls and bright colors so it was hard restraining myself with these batches! :lol: Thanks for looking!

They all look wonderful.
I haven't ventured into the world of EO's yet. One of these days I will, and I hope they are as good as those. :)
 
Oh my goat!!! :shock: they are so inspiring and so... grrrr I can't think of the word :? ok if I think of it I'll come back and post it lol, either way I love them. :D
 
Beautiful soaps Lane! Love the textured tops and your base soap colour is such a lovely white....very serene. The Lavender Vanilla looks edible! Thanks for posting.

Thank you so much everyone! I had a heck of a time with the EOs over heating and having a long crack along the top of the soap log. Thank goodness I did the thick peaks on top...it hides the crack a little bit!

So how do you get peaks like that?

I just poured at a thicker trace and stuck a spatula in and out of the top of the log, about and inch and a half deep. :)

Hmmm, let's see...Palm, Coconut, Shea Butter, Castor Oil, Avocado Oil, Palm Kernel, Soybean, Sweet Almond and Canola. ...I tend to make my recipes more complex than they need to be :roll:
