My soaps! My first was a peppermint/teatree soap that I didn't take a pic of.

Second attempt was lavender/honey with an oatmeal layer. I have a friend with Celiac's so I made little cupcake molds without the oatmeal layer. The 'mouse turds' are lavender buds.


Third attempt was a salt bar. Scented with a citrus coconut blend that made it seize so I was basically stuffing it into the mold with my hands, lol.


Fourth attempt is a triple layer chocolate/peppermint soap. The swirly middle makes me so happy!

My first CP batch!!! Yay me!!!!! Now I can make more with confidence!!!!!!!!!!!

Noni, WOW, my first batch ended up really clumpy with the swirl, yours is great!!!

TryblTrtle ... how did you swirl that middle layer?!?! Please share! Your soaps are beautiful!

@Amy

Its an 'in the bowl' swirl, lol. Basically, the bottom is just plain soap with Peppermint EO. Then you melt some white chocolate, olive oil, and cocoa powder into a thin brown liquid. Pour it in, stir it enough to swirl in the bowl, then layer it atop the bottom layer. Then the last third gets dark chocolate melted in and stirred until solid brown. Thank you for the compliment!

Very cool! That swirl is killer!

Trybl, Congrats on the swirl!!! Real chocolate? I did not realize we could use that - although it might not make it to the soap Do I see green in the swirl? Is that from the olive oil?

Noni, Love the blue color. I have not ventured from green, brown and cream!

Amy, great job! Using cucumber melon and teatree is a great idea. I have left over cucumber melon I did not know what to do with, thanks for a jolt to my brain.

Yep! Real chocolate from the baking isle! It smells fantastic! Peppermint chocolate, like great big slabs of peppermint paddies. And no, its just a cream color, not green. I have yet to dabble in dyes, but soon!
