heather_dw Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Didnt have any color to use but i was itching to make soap...Carmen helped me (she rocks by the way)We have a recipe using rice bran, coconut, beeswax, castor, shea butterwhen i added the lye to the oils. it thickened up immediately. I was starting to freak out but i made sure to mix it really well. I added the FO and mixed some more. By the time i got to put it into the mold. i sorta just glopped it in there.It actually did gel (I was so excited)Here it is cut.. nothing fancy like the rest of ya, but it is scented sweet pea (yummy)it is still a bit soft and warm but how do you guys think it turned out?

Michi Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Looks pretty good to me, natural looking I bet it smells really good (my whole house smells like Sweet Pea right now-I made bath salts in this scent last night! ).Good Job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebcandles Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 You go girl. You guys, if you dont know Heather, she is a riot! She was itching to make soap with only a few ingredients. We had to come up with something for her otherwise she would have ended up in the loonie bin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ange Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 LOL....it looks very nice. Do let us know how it soaps. Did you use alot of beeswax? I am pretty curious about how it feels.I have only added it to a castile bar to harden it up abit at 1% but cant really feel anything since its so little.
