You can use Pink clay scents. I've used it alot and like the color, it's a soft pink

OOOOOOoooo! What are pink clay scents? I did use Morrocan Red Clay (about 1/2 oz) for the red part. But the scent ROCKED! I used cranberry citrus with the red swirl and a lemon sage with the beige swirl (which wouldn't have been beige except I didn't know not to use all the hibiscus tea with the lye cause it turns orange.) Spotted cat, what are pink clay scents?

Wow! Look at everybody knocking out these swirls!!! Terrific!

Beautiful swirls, spotted cat! Looks like you're a pro at the funnel method already.

Thanks, SpottedCat. I think I'll be ordering some pink clay. Lisa, your soap appears a soft pink on my screen. Is it actually a deeper red from the Morrocan red clay or did it give it a pink tone? Very nice swirled with the lighter tone. I've never scented my colors separately. Do the cranberry citrus and lemon sage combine to give a new fragrance? Sounds like a nice combo. I think SpottedCat was referring to my screen name "scents"; but pink clay scents do sound intriguing. Maybe you're on to something.

The clay turned a dusky rose BUT you have to take into account the base soap was really tan so that may have affected it. But the more it ages, it seems to get prettier and prettier. Anyways, worth a try. If I had more cranberry citrus, I would try again without the hibiscus tea and see what I get.

And I do think the red/pink part with cranberry citrus and the beige part with the sage/lemon did create something where I can kind of smell two different scents in the same soap and they work together to make a bigger more interesting soap. But that may be my imagination because I seem like I am high all the time now that I am sniffing scents and lye a couple of times a week!

Hi Lisa,

Is the sage/lemon a FO or did you make your own combination of EO? I'd like to try the cranberry citrus, is it good on it's own?

Your funnel swirls are absolutely beautiful , well done

thanks, it was fun to do and actually wasn't that difficult once one figures out the timing on the trace.
