Thanks everyone!

Question: What is a "reverse swirl"?

It's when you whiten a portion of a soap that is known to discolor. The tan in the chai, for instance, was due to the fragrance (containing vanilla and other compounds known to darken CP). I reserved a portion of the soap and added Titanium Dioxide (or pearl mica) so that the swirl evolves to white against the darkening background.
