November 2017 | Christmas and Baby Girl Giveaways | KCK Soapery

I made a couple of giveaways/favors for baby girl favors, birthday girl, and for Christmas giveaways. I was not able to write each as I finished them.  But here's some of them:

Birthday Girl Favors

Christmas Giveaways

Baby Girl Favors

Below are some of the cupcake soap toppers I made from melt and pour.

Used my usual ingredients: Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Palm Oil, Mango Butter and Castor Oil, mica for colors, fragrance oils and lye to make the oils and butter into soap. 

The making of the cupcakes.

Here they are with the toppers and just waiting to get hard enough to get out of the mold.

Here are some of them off the mold:

Hope you like what you see.

Give me a poke, a shout out or just contact me and  let's work on a design for your party or just to pretty up your sinks with customize soap design.

Thank you for stopping by!

November 2017 | Abalone and Sea | KCK Soapery

This was my daughter's color vision.  Her vision was of galaxy and it's a combination of blue, purple and white.

Blue and purple mica and titanium dioxide for white. Scented with Abalone and Sea described as a fresh ocean scent with notes of days lily, sea spray, watery florals, and musk.

Same favorite recipe which includes the following ingredients: Coconut oil, olive oil, rice bran oil, mango butter, palm oil and castor oil.

Poured the white base.

Poured a middle line of purple.

Alternate blue and purple soap batter.

Covered the swirls with white.

Drizzled purple on top of white.

Blue leftover soap batter.

Made a swirl with chopstick.

We were a little worried since the blue seems to overpower the purple.

Off the mold.  The purple is not as prominent but still visible.

Off the mold.

They turned out pretty good!

November 2017 | Peppermint | KCK Soapery

Peppermint essential oil was used to scent this red and white delightful soap batch.

Tilted the mold for the striped tiger swirl I was planning to do.

Only red mica and titanium dioxide for white to color this batch. 

Used the same ingredients, Coconut  oil, Olive oil, Rice Bran oil, Palm oil, Mango butter and Castor oil saponified with lye.

Started with red soap batter poured on the edge of the mold where it is tilted.

Then goes in the white.  I was able to do this swirl and had it photographed since my kid is home.  

Poured the red and white alternately until I was satisfied with the stripe look I got.

Placed the mold flat on the table.  

Covered the stripe with red.

Piped the top with the rest of white and red soap batter.

Off the mold.

Finally cut. My son did most of the cutting with this batch.

I am very happy with the result. My daughter said, I should not stop making soap again since my design technique is getting better.

Thanks for stopping by!

November 2017 | Holiday Berry | KCK Soapery

Scented with "Holiday Berry" described to be a blend of ripe raspberry with orange zest and warm musk.

I decided on red, green and white for holiday.

Poured the white as the base.  I used the same recipe I have been using recently which include, Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Palm Oil, Mango Butter and Castor Oil.

Dropped most of the green for some green swirls.

Layered the red on top and drizzled it with some white.

Drizzled the leftover green.

Swirled the top using chopstick.

Off the mold.

Finally cut.  Each bar is different in a way.  I love how these turned out.

Thank you for stopping by!

October 2017 | White Christmas | KCK Soapery

Scented with "White Christmas". This is a fragrance oil described to be a blend of pine, fir needles, cedar bark, and eucalyptus.

Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Palm Oil, Mango Butter, and Castor Oil.

Adding lye to the oils and butter.

Blend until batter is thick enough to pour. 

Poured batter into mold.  Main soap batter is not colored in any way.

Dropped swirled with white melt and pour.

Dropped swirled with soap batter colored white with titanium dioxide.

Textured the top using spoon.

Added white melt and pour snowflakes.

Out of the mold.

Cut by hand using knife since the snowflakes made the soap taller than my cutters. I tried to slice it as straight as I could but I have a crooked hand.

Enjoy!

October 2017 | Pumpkin Pie All Natural Lip Balm | KCK Soapery

These are now labelled, packaged, and sealed ready for shipment to their new temporary home where they will be packaged again to be part of a baby shower giveaways.

Ingredients includes Castor oil, Olive oil, Beeswax, Carnauba wax, Soybean oil, Candelilla oil, orange mica, and sweetened pumpkin pie flavor.

Pouring into the tiny tubes, holds 0.15 oz. each.

What a production! My challenge is always in the labelling and it took me hours to finish sticking labels and sealing off the tiny tubes. But they are worth all the work!

I hope the host of the party and recipients of the giveaways will love them.

Thank you for stopping by!
