Soap Flop?

Last week I was anxious to try a couple of new cold process soaps.

Here’s a video of one of them.  It’s on YouTube too.

The soap set up super fast and was nearly solid when I smushed it into the mold.

I was afraid the layers might split apart once it was cut, but all is good!

It doesn’t have the exact look I was going for,

but the layers stuck.

The bars don’t look too bad considering

what it took to get the soap into the mold.

It’s scented with a refreshing lime mint.

This one still needs a name.  Any suggestions?

Oatmeal Soap

Last week I made a couple of my most requested soaps.

Oatmeal, Milk and Honey

Cold Process Soap from Scratch

They are so fun to make because I know people are going to want them and enjoy them.

Here's a video of me making the Oatmeal Soap.  It is fragranced with Oatmeal, Milk and Honey fragrance from Bramble Berry.  It also contains ground oatmeal, which adds interesting texture and is mildly exfoliating.  Oatmeal is also wonderful for our skin.

This is my first soap with the Pink Blender from Bramble Berry that I got for Mother's Day.

Video Adventures

I just posted another video to YouTube.  I have a long way to go to get the hang of this video stuff.  I hope practice helps.  You can watch the video below or on YouTube.

I spent way too much time trying to figure out how to edit the video.  But my persistence paid off!  I was able to trim the 13 minute video (yawwwwwwwwwn) down to about five minutes.  A good three minutes of the video in original form was of a pan of soap just sitting while I was off camera getting other things ready. 

As I get more practice at this, I hope to learn to have everything in one spot ready to go so the videos don’t contain minutes of still shots.

I’ll post pictures of the soaps later.
