Those are so cute!Just cut my Princess Leia and What’s new Pussycat soap. My cutter screwed up a little, but it’s nothing I can’t fix. Also made pure coconut Dish Soap.

I LOOOOVE a tidy line.Just cut last nights soap it turned out strange LOL. To recap, my FO started to rice with the bottom layer. It wasn't terrible and was able to pour easily. I let that set up and poured my black layer without FO because I became a sissy and didn't want to fight the rice.
I let it set up on top of the stove...no heat to clarify (cause I poured pretty thin)...so I guess about 20 minutes, before I covered with towels and cpop. My light in my oven blew out, so I didn't even have that to leave on overnight like I normally do.
The middle of the soap "rose up" it seems, to touch the towel covering the mold.
The lighter layer has a little td in it and the fo, the black layer is ac, no fo. I THOUGHT that when I cut it, that it would have been the scented layer that caused the problem, but it's just the top layer (with no scent). I had planned on cutting the tops off, but now that I cut the bars, I think it looks kinda neat.

Thank you!! I love a nice straight line as well. I have been making some layered soaps lately, and have gotten the knack for the tidy line. Then I had one that wasn't so tidy, and it's an eyesore for me. "Throw the whole thing away, it's crooked" LOLI LOOOOVE a tidy line.
I really like the soap, its simple but the lines are so straight and I prefer the color to a stark white. Happy accidents eh?
I think it would probably look good in a TS mold. But honestly I think this look is so much more unique. And you have more area for the beautiful clean line.Thank you!!

I think these would look good in a ts mold, but I don't know why the middle overheated, if that is in-fact what it was, which I believe it probably was. I just never had that happen except for a milk soap that I made once.
I didn't add as much td as I usually do on purpose, was just going for a creamy look. But I think it will get a little whiter as it cures.
Awww....thank you. I actually got the idea from someone who created a soap last week (sorry, I forget who to give credit to). And I copied the design, except they used natural soap color for the bottom and I added TD.I think it would probably look good in a TS mold. But honestly I think this look is so much more unique.

I really think the line and the colors are so intriguing.
Like it's simple but so visually interesting to look at. The texturing at the top after you cut them adds to that.
Well done!
Well, I keep looking at this soap so there is a good chance I'll copy both of you at some point!Awww....thank you.

I think it might have been @Ford

Wow, these are amazing! How did you get the yellow inside the orange in the drop swirl, or was it by chance?Today’s cuts...Cracklin Birch and Dragon’s Blood. Had to work fast with both of them as I use a lot of hard oils but I’m really loving the drop swirl lately.

Thank you! If you pour the second, or third “drop” color in the same spot as the first you can get that effect.Wow, these are amazing! How did you get the yellow inside the orange in the drop swirl, or was it by chance?
These are very pretty. I’m trying to imagine what living coral reef would smell like!I cut my itp/layered swirl from the other night. I don't know what I was thinking with the colors, so now it looks like a xmas soap LOL.
The smell is Living Coral Reef by CC. This FO decelerated my batter.
I will send you one when it hardens up a bit, if you don't mind letting it cure lol. It is a bit perfumey, not a guy smell at all. It is hard to describe. Its nice, but I don't know how much I really like it. I keep going back to a batch I made last week to keep smelling it and I just can't figure it out. I expected something more tropical, which everybody in the reviews says it is, I don't get tropical from it.These are very pretty. I’m trying to imagine what living coral reef would smell like!![]()
