eugenia Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 I totally suck at swirling. DH just made me a slab mold and I decided to give it a whirl. This is orange and sandalwood EO's colored with paprika and cocoa for my natural line. First two color swirl I've tried. I know you pros do this stuff all the time but it never ever works for me; soap too thick, etc.Looks like dessert now that it's cut....

eugenia Posted September 2, 2006 Author Share Posted September 2, 2006 Thanks for the kind words. That is the mold that was "made to order" for 3.5 x 2.5 soap to fit the boxes. My Kelsei makes 3 x 2 and I wanted bigger, of course! I just recently started with the EO's and it's fun playing with natural colorants. Still love my FO's and Select Shades as well.

CareBear Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 well, obviously you don't need that Kelsei any more, so I'm gonna go stand outside your house till you come out and hand it over. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purple Lilac Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 I think we are our own worst critics - you did a wonderful job of swirling, the swirls is throughout the whole bar and when I think of sandalwood, I think of browns and earthy colors. Sometimes it's just a matter of changing the name of the soap to match the finished product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
