Oatmeal Milk & Honey soap

[Shannon_m]

So I've made my first Oatmeal Milk & Honey soap. I did use about 1 oz for 2 lbs of oil of BB's OMH FO. I used a few milks including Goat's milk and some white clay and silk and some finely ground oatmeal inside. I topped the soap with whole oatmeal sprinkled a bit of cinnamon for color and drizzled with honey. Testing out my new formula and already I can't wait to try it! Here are some pics in the mold. Hopefully I'll get to cut it tomorrow and I'll take cut pics too.

Before I fine-tuned the top

Added a bit of texture on the sides

Had a bit left over, so made two star ones

Thank you, smells delicious too!

When I think of Oatmeal I always think it smells hot, creamy and always includes a touch of cinnamon. I'm hoping that the scent comes through just a little, but even if it doesn't it looks good!

Definitely edible! It looks amazing.

Thank you =)

Looks awesome. I'm sure it will look great when it is cut.

I'm so impatient I want to cut it now... I have to eventually go and take it into the back room and forget about it or else I'll keep going and peeking at it and poking it lol

Looks beautiful! I've never put honey on the top. Does it get hard or stay sticky? I bet it smells wonderful!

I know the feeling, I just poured mine and I want to fast forward til tomorrow so I can unmold it

I know right? It's taken every ounce of willpower not to lick my fingers when I poke the top (ack! I can't stop poking my soap lol)

I don't know, this is a first for me. I've seen other people do it though. We shall see. Either way I'm not too worried, it'll all wash off anyway.

Did you take and post "in the mold" pics of your first soap??????

Well, it is a pvc mold, so the pictures would not be very exciting, especially since the mold is only about half full

Just ordered some OMH fragrance...can't wait to use it. Your soap looks awesome

 

[Shannon_m]

Thank you. I love this fragrance, it's so relaxing and homey.

I LOVE this combo! the idea of warm oatmeal, spicy cinnamon, creamy milk and sweet honey is making my drool...

I'm loving it, I just love oatmeal. Funny thing too... one of my first memories of Kindergarten was meeting our Principal Mr. Trimble... I remember being in the lunch line (went to half-day so it must have been some sort of orientation or something) and he was in front of me. He smelled just like oatmeal and I remember asking him if he used oatmeal soap. How would a 5 year old even know about oatmeal soap? My parents (as well as I know) have never used oatmeal soap. How strange is that?

lol, it in your blood then to make soap!!!

You've been going on and on and getting us all worked up and then you put it in a PVC mold. Big Tease! ;-)
