March 2020 | Fresh Corona | KCK Soapery


A friend suggested a corona virus inspired soap.  This is what I came up with.  

Colors used were:
- yellow, orange and pink mica for bright and vibrant corona virus
- white, titanium dioxide for, hopefully, peace soon
- black for all the chaos spreading around the world.


I used "Fresh Linen" fragrance oil which is a clean accord with soft subtle back notes of powder and musk.  Notes include jasmine, lilac, peony, Egyptian musk and French vanilla.




Enjoy!

March 2020 | Kentish Rain | KCK Soapery



My vision for this batch was a rain drop in the middle but the soap batter got hard fast and did not behave the way I needed it to give me the look I wanted.  It still has a unique look which I like very much though.
Fragrance oil used is described as a fresh and earthy mix of basil, green leaf, ozone, lily, rose, 
jasmine, violet, sandalwood, and tonka bean.


Same usual recipe olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil, shea butter, castor oil, and mango butter.
Activated charcoal for black, titanium dioxide for white, and blue mica.



My camera ran out of memory in the middle of my designing. You still get to see most of the pouring though.

Thank you for stopping by!

February 2020 | Coffee and Cream | KCK Soapery


This batch was inspired by my hubby who love coffee and enjoys roasting his very own gourmet green coffee beans.  This was made using the recipe I found in "LovinSoap".   I  changed the patchouli and orange essential oils to rosemary and peppermint essential oils for this batch, however, I used the same main recipe in Lovin soap.  Surprisingly, it turned out just as expected!


Instead of water, I used brewed coffee from Costa Rica from the hubby's supplies. The coffee grounds for some exfoliation and some coffee beans for the top.


Wet soap.

Here is the video of the making and cutting.
