thecandlespastore Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 The pink was supposed to be red, but I did not put enough oxide. But I guess I can live with it:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Love the soap - but the name? What in the world is pap...pad...padpara-whatever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecandlespastore Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 It is a gemstone:And the fragrance that I made the soap with is called Padparadscha as well, it is a yummy fragrance by Satellite:I was going for the red of the perfume with gold, but got pink. Maybe next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thecandlespastore Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 I cant even spell it right the first time:D Thank you so much for taking a peek! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magsglass Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 The pink was supposed to be red, but I did not put enough oxide. But I guess I can live with it:DI could live with it too, so send some to me. LOL! I've been wondering what padparadscha smells like. Bet it's as lovely as it looks!

AnitaG Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I could live with that too. Very pretty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaVida Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Ilike it... and the name.... "Pad-pa-rahd-sha".. am I correct? Similar to my BF's name.... "rashad" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoapInTheCity Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I think the soap looks wonderful, great colors, and swirling. But I agree, the name is a little.........hard to pronounce and odd for someone who doesn't know what it means, you don't want someone overlooking this soap because they don't know what the heck padparadscha is and thinking it's some foreign animal part oil or something............

Brenda Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Like your soap! Pretty just like it is. Now we all really need that elusive "scratch 'n sniff" feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecandlespastore Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 LaVida, you got it right! Soapinthecity, thanks for the suggestion:DI have to leave the Padparadscha part in the title though so that people who know the perfume (it is super popular and highly sought after) can find my site to buy it, the lotion, everything. Keyword positioning to the max! So they know there is a place where they dont have to pay $150+ per bottle:grin2: just to smell yummy!Thanks everyone for looking!

Hibiscus Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Very Pretty!You should be glad you didn't get the deep red color or there might be some bleeding(ugh) when I went deeper with a red oxide it ended up being chunked and set aside for a confetti type creation. Maybe it was just my oxide. My daughter has always loved that gemstone:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystical_angel1219 Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Just lovely- and I love the name. :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YooperCandles Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I think the name is cool and I would look just to find out what it smells like but my opinion (for what it's worth) is maybe call it something like Exotic Gems and Gold - Our version of Padparadscha or ®.Just my Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michi Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Well, it may not have come out as red as the bottle, but dang it's pretty close, and the gold swirls are awesome, you used just the right amount of mica for that.I've never heard of that perfume, but thanks to you I wanna smell it dang it!!!!!!!!!!! I agree, ya gotta keep the name, no matter how long and hard to pronounce it is (hey I got it right the first time-WOW) cuz like you said, it's pretty sought after and you want people to know you're selling a great dupe of it.

Crafty1 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bev Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Beautiful soaps. I have never smelled that perfume but I'd probably gravitate towards it when looking to purchase just BECAUSE of the name. It's too interesting to pass over!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
