Newest Soaps - First Ess. Oil batches!

[Lane]

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! Thanks for looking!

Creamy Lavender Vanilla:

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.

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!

 

[wonderland]

they look soooooooooooo creamy and 'licious!

yum!

 

[Guest]

So how do you get peaks like that?

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:
