Teach Soap

This one was a new custom blend I made and the soap traced so fast I could barely get it in the mold. It has: Benzoin, Balsalm of Peru, Cinnamon, Bergamot, Rosewood and a few others I can't remember. I made it after Chelsea Market in New York City as I was in New York on holidays recently and loved that market. Here it is in the mold:



Here are the cut photos. I'm dying to try this one out to see what it's like:



Lemongrass in the mold, my sister got to design the top:



I'm hoping to unmold this after work.

Debb, Those are great soaps! Love the yellow color - perfect for sunflower frag. What did you use to color it? Your swirls are excellent.

Ana Maria,

I used cocoa for the middle.

This was an adventure in color. Wanted yellow and lavendar, but in the end got shades of purple, green, cream, black and yellow. At first I thought it was the blending of colors, but upon further study of my soaps I see that I got partical gel. So the multicolored ones were from the center of the loaf and the normal colored ones were from the ends. I did put it in the fridge... should have used the freezer.
This was my first attempt at a two color swirl.
