Firefly Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 This one was a new custom blend I made and the soap traced so fast I could barely get it in the mold. It has: Benzoin, Balsalm of Peru, Cinnamon, Bergamot, Rosewood and a few others I can't remember. I made it after Chelsea Market in New York City as I was in New York on holidays recently and loved that market. Here it is in the mold:Here are the cut photos. I'm dying to try this one out to see what it's like:Lemongrass in the mold, my sister had fun designing the top:I'm hoping to unmold this after work.

Scented Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Umm I wanna sniff Mystic Vale!!! I have I think those EOs and would love to whiff the combo. Are you hand forming your balls or making a different way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 Thanks everyone.Scented,I'm hand forming my balls. There is a soaper that makes perfect soap balls and I don't know how unless maybe she is using a mold to form them. It took me awhile to get them pretty even and my palms were quite sore. I can only make so many at a time and then I take a break and come back to it.If I make this combo again I'll know what to expect as I had a really cool design idea with a three colour swirl and I just couldn't do what I wanted. Next time I'll just make a simple batch knowing I don't have much time to work with this scent. I'm not sure the scent is going to stick very well but I'll know more in 6 weeks. I used too much Bergamot I think which I know really fades in CP and I would up the Cinnamon. I had my mom and sister sniff as I was creating it and they would give me great feedback saying it was too heavy or needed a little of this and that.

Scented Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Some have been using the melon ball silicone molds, but I can't help to wonder if there's something that isn't just a little bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
