Orangethyme I love salt soap. Yours looks good. Salt soap seems to hold FO so well too.
Ealamn1 your soap turned out so good.

Linda thanks for the heads up on the Cranberry fig. I might try that FO. I made a batch of the Oakmoss and Amber about two months ago and it went fast when it cured. I have about 9 bars curing for late Sept and am going to make another batch tomorrow.
I love Cranberry marmalade but it discolors. Everyone loves the scent.

Your salt bars look lovely, orangethyme.

Haven, those are great colors!

Julie, thanks for the info. Amazing how the to-soap list grows faster than I can cut it down!

I do believe this is my first time posting in the CP forum.

Jasmine Patchouli

I made two tiny batches, one with blue pumice and one with shredded loofah. Very pleased with the result. though I am going to try to be a little more consistent with the stripes/swirls next time. They are colored with white, and purple clays.



And, a vanilla-orange soap, colored with paprika and the natural browning of the vanilla, + a little super pearly white mica. (oddly, the brown from the vanilla makes a bigger mess in the soap tray than the orange)

Yeeey! One more batch of cp, 4th one. I tried in-the-pot swirl this time and I love it so much!) I used citrus linen fo and smells really nice



BTW I love everybody's soap, so pretty! Especially wild honeysuckle one, colors r so fresh and bright

Good job, Sammy. I wish I could smell that Jasmine Patchouli.

Nice work, Anna Rose! I like the Home Sweet Home the best.

Nice in the pot swirl, kelena88. That's a pretty orange.

Keep up the good work everyone! I hope you all had a great Labor Day weekend!

This is my second batch of soap. Lemon Poppy seed. Colored with turmeric and lemon eo. It smells nice now, but I understand that over the next few weeks the fragrance will fade.

Good job, NoVaSoap! You can anchor the lemon eo with a bit of litsea cubeba eo next time.
