January 2020 | Love Spell | KCK Soapery

I made a second batch of Valentine's Soap for a friend "S".  Plus, I want to make a successful batch using the new heart embed.  This time, I used my usual favorite recipe which includes Olive oil, Coconut oil, Palm oil, Mango butter, Shea butter, and Castor oil.

Scented with a combination of essential oil and fragrance oil described as a lavishly lush blend of orange, peach, cherry blossom, and white jasmine.

This time, I swirled the top using a skewer.

Only five bars out of eleven ended up being what I want them to look like.  Six bars have their bottom layer stuck on the mold.

September 2017 | Chocolate Lovers | KCK Soapery

Fragranced with Chocolate Lovers, a scent described as a mixture of lemon, orange, bergamot and mandarin, lily of the valley and coriander with notes of sweet chocolate, warm vanilla, and musk. 

Inspired by the name of the fragrance oil, I decided to tweak with my recipe and incorporate cocoa butter.  This recipe includes Olive Oil, Palm Oil, Coconut Oil, Castor Oil, and Cocoa Butter.

Since this fragrance oil will discolor the soap to some shade of brown I decided to use that discoloration as the main color of the soap and made swirls of white using titanium dioxide and a combination of red and brown mica for the second color.

Dropped both white and the red brown colors into the main batter.

Used a chopstick to make a diagonal design on the top.

Off the mold.
