eugenia Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 EO blend from Rainbow Meadow. I love that site. I have about 15 EO's and I swear I could come of with 100 blends using their blends. This one is colored with charcoal, I wanted it to be dark and mysterious.e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 By the name of the thread I thought it was going to be an ugly mess...LOL. Do the suds go dark from the charcoal?I think I'll go search charcoal now. Can't figure out why it would be good in soap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapbuddy Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 That looks cool!I've made charcoal soap for people that have oily skin, but mine didn't come out as dark as yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louise Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Wow! How neat is that?! I too thought, by the title of your thread, that I was going to see a blob of something, lol. I'll also have to search the charcoal thing. Is it a special kind of charcoal? or like charcoal used in fish tank filters? Are people using it for the black color or what? I don't get it either. Glad to hear it doesn't make black suds, I'm thinking that could be bad, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I'll send you some if you'd like Carrie. That is dark, but at some point it's got to release some black I would think ... I would hope it doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SliverOfWax Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 That soap is spectacular. Just spectacular.Did I miss the oils you blended? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugenia Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 Soap is like a box of chocolates; you never know exactly what you are going to get..... Sliver, EO's are peppermint, lemongrass, lavender and rosemary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Your soap is so cool looking and the eo blend sounds divine!! I finally ordered some and can not wait to get my charcoal. I hope my soap turns our half as cool looking as yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I hear ya Meridith. Mine's here and if she can go this dark then this could be ultra fun, especially not having to let mixed black oxide sit for a couple days and then only use a little. This could be wicked looking in a witches brew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
