dirtybirdsoaps Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I need opinions on a good coconut fo for CP preferably a straight (pure) coconut. I need to make a small batch for my dad so I wanted to use coconut milk as a liquid, and then have a good coconut fo to go with it. Also, can you add dried coconut flakes on the top of the soap? I was just thinking it would give it a nice tropical appearance? Any suggestions would be appreciated.Also, I did do a search and found some helpful info but it seemed most was scattered info.Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabbledoya Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I'm not sure that there's any coconut fo that works right in CP. I tried 3 different kinds a few months ago, and had no luck. And when I researched it, I found out that no one else has had much luck w/ it either (morphs or fades). It's a shame, because it would make an awesome smelling soap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndulgentCreations Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I use a great coconut from ICS called Cocomilk...it's awesome and stick very well. I layer it, color the bottom brown, top white and then sprinkle real coconut on the top. It's always sold fantastic for me. Here's what it looks like... http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25854890HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessiec Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 I have used Coconut Bay. I thought it smelled great, but then my mother in law came by and gave it a sniff.... She said that it smelled like a urinal cake!!!! Needless to say, I don't think I'll be CPing Coconut Bay again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gloworm Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I've used unsweetened coconut flakes on top of my CP soaps. Looked nice.Glo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
