Grumpy Girl Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Here's my shampoo bar that I've been working on for a few weeks. It's scented Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific and I worked on a nice little label to match it. These are gonna be for Spellkast's BB swap. Give me your comments about the label, I'd love to hear them.It's super soft, and I probably won't be able to unmold it for another 24 to 48 hours. Bleh. I'm impatient.I tried to match the color of the scent without going overboard. I'm not sure I was sucessful yet. Edited to add:** Okay, this lathers like a raped ape, but it's still too soft for the shower. It goes crazy in the kitchen sink though and the bubbles are nice and white instead of bright pink.

mystical_angel1219 Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 What a pretty color on the soap. I love this scent myself. Just got some in from OT. I love the label. However, being that the colors in the background and the color of the soap are quite similiar u might want to go with a more contrasting color for more kick.

elle110 Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 YUM..I love shampoo bars, the color is fantastic. I have to say your labels are to stinkin cute.

Grumpy Girl Posted February 17, 2006 Author Share Posted February 17, 2006 You're right, I think I need to do a yellow edge or something around the label to separate the two colors a bit. Maybe wrap the soap with yellow tissue before labeling it... I dunno yet.elle, I love my grumpy... thanks for the compliments! I want to be as bizarre as possible.Now I want this sucker to come out of the mold so I can see if it kicks butt like I think it will.

Sara Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Why oh why am I not in Spellkast's swap? Something about posting this is completely unfair. Heh. Hey, I'm real curious on how this works for people. I use handmade soap on my hair all the time, and have never used a *specific* hair bar. Funny, huh? But I truly prefer using my bar soap vs shampoo. So I'm wondering how different/better a designated bar is. (of coarse actually making a shampoo bar is on my ever-growing list...)Can't wait to see these babies cut up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michi Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 OMG that has got to smell awesome- I remember going to my cousins' house when I was younger and they always had that shampoo, and I wanted it soooo bad, but for some reason my mom would never buy it for me. LOLI LOVE LOVE LOVE that label, but I think..... GREEN would look really good as the background and really go good with the pink soap (wasn't the lid on the bottle of shampoo GREEN?? )I'm almost as excited as you to see it unmolded so I hope it hurrys up and hardens a bit so you can't get that baby outta there. LOLYah, exactly what IS the difference between regular homemade soap and a homemade shampoo bar?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy Girl Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share Posted June 29, 2006 Oops, I've changed my domain since this post, here's the label for that soap. I've revised it a bit since this thread but it's still pretty close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
