I've not been online much over the past few weeks, since before Christmas because I suffered a small heart attack and got diagnosed with a heart condition that pretty much wiped me out physically for awhile. I'm now mostly recovered and back in the soap alchemy lab heating up the cauldron to churn out some soapy creations. Pictured are some the recent soaps I have made both cold process and hot process. The first is called Mint Rose, and is actually a rebatch of Secret Rose Garden which was originally cold process. The lye was bad and the soap remained too soft and had to be redone. Ingredients include oils of olive, coconut, sunflower, rice bran, and castor, distilled water, soymilk, sodium hydroxide, sodium lactate, cosmetic micas and glitter, lemongrass essential oil and other fragrance oils (custom blend), titanium dioxide, sugar, rose bud petals and mint leaves.
This next one was inspired by Fairies and springtime! I call it Fairy Garden and I absolutely love this one!
And lastly is a restock of one my favorites, Lovely Lavender with oils of olive, coconut, castor, avocado, sustainable palm, water, sodium hydroxide, kaolin clay, lavender essential oil, and lavender buds.
Well, there's more to come as spring approaches. I've already got plans to restock my popular sea salt soap bars and am planning a tea soap with a southern twist!
