February 2020 | Aromatherapy Energizing | KCK Soapery


    I made this batch of handmade soaps a few weeks ago using a mold I bought for myself for Christmas and Valentine's!

    I always love the look of the soaps made with the dividers.  The different colors are more evenly distributed and not intermingling over each other.

    This batch is made using my usual recipe olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil, shea butter, mango butter and castor oil. Colors used were purple, teal and pink mica and titanium dioxide for white.

    Fragrance used is called Aromatherapy Energizing which is described as an uplifting blend of fragrance and essential oil blend of fresh and airy notes of lemon, garden peppermint, spearmint, wintergreen and floral notes of gardenia, jasmine, and rose.


I also bought a cutter for this batch.  


As of the writing of this blog, my cutter and mold are both unavailable.  I will keep an eye for when it will be available and add the link in the next post.


Wet soap after swirling. 
I always love the look of wet soap.


The two different cut made by the new mold and the new cutter.

Here is the video of the making and cutting of this mold.

February 2018 | Puppy Love | KCK Soapery


Scented with a blend of violet, gardenia, jasmine with fresh grapefruit, vanilla, and white woods.


Another goat's milk soap with my recently concocted recipe that includes Coconut oil, olive oil, rice bran oil, palm oil, shea butter, mango butter, and castor oil. I thought of just using activated charcoal for black and titanium dioxide for white for this batch.


Once saponified and at the right trace, I divided the batter into two.


Made a zebra swirl.


Covered the top with white.


Drizzled the leftover black batter.


Made a swirl with chopstick on top.


Out of the mold.


Cut and ready for you to enjoy!
