September 2014 | Eucalyptus & Spearmint | KCK Soapery


I was informed that a guy who had tried one of my giveaways (grandpa's 90th birthday party) enjoyed the soap and would like to have a full size bar of it.
 
 
This recipe includes Coconut oil, Olive oil, Rice Bran oil, Mango butter, Palm oil and Castor oil.  Scented with Eucalyptus/Spearmint blend.  Additives were Tussah silk, White Kaolin clay, colloidal oatmeal and aloe vera.  I sure hope he would like this new recipe which include more skin loving ingredients than before.
 
 
Ready for cutting.  Colors were woodland green and titanium dioxide for white.
 
 
This was an in the pot swirl and drop swirled into the mold.

September 2014 | Pink Camo | KCK Soapery

 
It was suggested that since hunting season is here, I should also make some camo soaps for the ladies who loves hunting as well.
 

Ingredients include Coconut oil, Olive oil, Rice Bran oil, Palm oil, Mango butter and Castor oil.  Additives Tussah silk, white kaolin clay, colloidal oatmeal and aloe vera.
 

 
This batch was scented with Falling In Love which described as a charming blend of Blackberry, Jasmine, Lemon, Vanilla and Musk.  I sure hope the female hunters would love this.
 
 
Happy Soaping...
 
A video will soon be posted below.  I am trying my hand at adding a music so you guys don't have to listen to me.  Thank you for your patience.

September 2014 | Bergamot/Tarragon | KCK Soapery

 
I was told that some people really love the scent of Bergamot.  I ordered the fragrance oil and made a small batch with it using my smaller mold since the other mold was busy with a camo batch.
 
 
Ingredients were Coconut oil, Olive oil, Rice Bran oil, Mango butter, Palm oil and Castor oil.  Colors were stained glass lemon yellow, woodland green and titanium dioxide.  The yellow started out looking more like peach color but it turned more yellow after 24 hours.
 
 
I added tussah silk, aloe vera powder, colloidal oatmeal and kaolin clay.
 
 
It was a little on the soft side when I cut the bars this morning.  Although I like how the colors turned out just the way I wanted, I am not so thrilled with the swirling.
