Hey Bunny!!! Look what I made

This was my first attempt in exactly a year. I ran out of a cream soap I was given as a gift and almost cried. I was determined to figure it out. This batch is 8 days old today. The "texture" is ground oatmeal. Works great. I left it unscented so I could take a little out here and there and add stuffies to it to see how it would make it different.

THIS is my second and favorite. The color is from herb infused tomato juice and Tumeric powder. I used tomato juice for ALL of the lye sollution and infused it with rosemary, thyme, parsley and lavender. Scent didn't come through though. :embarasse I scented the entire batch with tangerine and lavender essential oils and it smells very very very good.

It's been a very long time since my last hello.

sweeeeeet!!! I am going through soaping withdrawal already!! I am thinking about just closing shop for the month of May until we get completely moved and set up. Keep the pics coming so I can drool over everyone else's stuff! :grin2:

Thanks guys. I adore the process actually. I made these two batches and then one that flopped. This is how we learn. I have greatly modified the flop and plan on doing it tomorrow. The first is "textured" with ground oatmeal because I want it to be a facial scrub of sorts and will be part of two coffee swaps I am hosting. :drool: The second one, the tomato juice batch is a delight to use. It is like silk. I told myself I would never make cream soap after my horrific flop in the beginning of last year. I got a wild hair a few weeks back and it happened to be to the week that I tried it last year. I think I am addicted. :yay:

Thanks to you both. I tossed my first batch too. THEN I waited over a year before I made a new batch. I tossed batch number 3 this time. It never came together. I fixed the recipe though and should be able to get it to my liking this time. :yay:
