The hubby is missing my camo designed soap so I made this batch for him.  I used the same usual recipe.


Shave and a hair cut fragrance oil is described as a mix of lemon, bergamot, cool mint, lavender, green accord, sandalwood, cedar wood, amber, and musk.  It smells just like walking in to a barbershop!



Enjoy!

May 2018 | Body Butters | KCK Soapery

I modified my body butter ingredients a little since it is getting warmer and my first body butter recipe melted when I left a container in the car one warm April day.

Although I highly recommend not leaving the body butters in warm space, this new recipe contains beeswax which is known to be very beneficial to the skin and will keep the body butters a little firmer.

I love the process of making up a recipe, adding and weighing the ingredients, and trying to make the final products look and feel pretty.  That is why most of my products have more ingredients than what is necessary. They are all natural, not synthetic, and will give additional benefits to the skin.

The body butters below contains Shea butter, Mango butter, Avocado butter, Coconut oil, Avocado oil, and beeswax.

Cocoa body butter has an added cocoa butter.
Unicorn poop is added with Unicorn poop fragrance oil.
Lavender is added with Lavender essential oil.

May 2017 | Gardener's Soap | KCK Soapery


I mentioned to a friend at work that I will make a Gardener's soap for her since she is starting her garden and herb farm again.


As I search for the perfect gardener's soap recipe, I noticed two recipes that caught my fancy.  I used the recipe from soap-making-resource  since I have all the ingredients on hand and try to make the soap look like the one from Brambleberry's soap queen's super gardener's soap.  I also combine additives like rose clay, lavender buds, activated charcoal and titanium dioxide from both sources.


Oils used were coconut oil, palm kernel oil, olive oil, avocado oil and castor oil.  This soap is chuck full of essential oils of Lavender, Rosemary and Tea Tree essential oils.


This is the largest amount of oils, essential oils and additives I have ever used.


I decided to add the lavender buds to the white soap batter and poured it first to be the base of the soap.


In went the rose clay layer.


Last layer was the soap batter mixed with coffee grounds.


Topped with white I set aside and lined with some leftover rose clay soap batter.  As you can see, some of the batter start hardening as I was spooning the batter.


Managed to swirl it before the top completely harden.


Off the mold.



This is the biggest soap bar I have ever made.
