Swirled cold process soap has to be the most beautiful soap creation I've ever seen!

What's a good swirl technique and how many colors can I use? Is it best to pour the colors in together? Or pour them in one at a time and then swirl? Any other advice?

I'd love to see photos of your swirled soap out there too!

There are great directions and videos of swirling CP soap on the Soap Queen blog here; http://soap-queen.blogspot.com/search?q=swirling+soap. It starts at the top with melt and pour but if you scroll down you can get to a pretty blue CP swirling tutorial.

I tried my first in the pot swirl, not as swirly as I had hoped, but still better then a one color batch.

I used titanium dioxide and yellow oxide for the base and pulled out about .2 oz of my RBO to mix up the green oxide. I scented all with the BB Cybilla Ginger Pear and it smells so yummy.

Just wanted to share

Don't know if this is any better, photobucket seems to be distorting it, can't seem to get the happy medium size picture I want it's either too big or too small, go figure.

It's a little fuzzy, but now I can see it. Thanks!
