It's a little messy right now, poured it a little too thin. |
I am a soapmaker, crafter and photographer and this is where I share what I do

Busy, Busy, Busy Day
After being in training all week, going into to work after training, I came home and made three batches of soap for my luxury line. The first is Passion Fruit Papaya made with aloe juice, goat's milk, and organic sweet potato, cocoa butter, shea butter, olive oil, avacado oil, coconut and canola oil. The second was made with goat's milk and the same butters and oil. The third batch is my first beer soap made with Miller Lite, white tea and the same butters and oils. Let me tell you, when I made that beer soap, I thought that was I was in an old brewery! I am hoping that it will mellow out, I can smell a slight fruity scent and I am hoping that will come through. I will post cut pics when they are ready.

New Soap Line
I am making a new line of soaps. My luxury bars. They are made in small batches no more than 3 lbs. they will be made with cocoa butter, shea butter, mango butter, olive butter and other rich butters that will feel wonderful on your skin. Not that my regular line doesn't feel as wonderful as well, I just don't use as much of those rich butters in my regular soap. Two batches I made already are Angelica and Sage Leaf. Cocoa butter makes the bar a bit harder but it is also a skin softening agent in soap. Honey is a humectant and helps retain moisture. Mango butter is another moisturizing butter. Olive oil helps retain the moisture in your skin. You can use 100% olive oil for a castille bar. It is a softer bar but great for the skin nonetheless. These are just a few of the ingredients that I will be using in my new luxury line of soaps.
