Eucalyptus and Spearmint ITP Swirl

[cwayneu]

After a several month sabbatical from soaping (boating and other fun stuff) DW Billie has made a new batch. She did an ITP swirl with a white base and pale green swirl, using eucalyptus and spearmint FO, and a touch of heavy cream. Smells pretty yummy. To be complete, she also drizzled and swirled the dab of remaining green on the top of the log mold, because very little color ended up on top after pouring. So I guess this is an ITP/ITM swirl. :smiley2:

From silicone 8" log mold

After cuts, plus a heart I poured with the left over batter (hehe)

Thank you for the nice comments everyone.

I was having severe soap making withdrawals after five months. LOL It sure is addicting.

Those look beautiful! I love the colors.

Mind saying where you for the FO/EO? I'm looking for some good Eucalyptus and Spearmint.

Thanks

Susan, this one came from Alabaster. It is nice but I can't say it is overly strong.

[AnitaG]

I like that.

Really love your soaps Billie and Wayne.

I'm working on a eucalyptus peppermint exfoliating foot soap today myself. I love that EO combo it's so soothing.

Gorgeous soap, Billie! Welcome back, I have missed you all. I just started back making soap. did 8 small batches this past weekend. It does feel good to be back, doesn't it?

Hi, Wayne!

Hi Wayne & Billie: Good to see someone from the neighborhood! Your soap is beautiful, I am only experimenting with M&P, and I won't subject anyone to a picture of my attempted swirl! Wonder if you have tried Eucalyptus & Spearmint from Bluegrass on the southside, it is a great smooth scent that throws very well. I gifted a co-worker with that a candle in that scent, and she said it was the best candle she has ever had! Angie is a sweet person, and everything I've tried from her has performed like a champ in straight soy, and a parasoy blend. Her Berry Creme Brulee will blow the doors off your house! Anyway, just wanted to stop in and say hi! :wave:

Thanks for the comment. We have not tried Bluegrass' products, but was in contact with them when they were first setting up their website. We'll have to check them out. If you want to see more on swirls, we have some videos posted on Youtube ( http://www.youtube.com/user/cwayneuc#p/u ).

BTW, your location and screen name did catch our eye (smallwhitedogs). We have two small white Maltese dogs, Casey and Amy. Quite a coincidence.
