Oceangazer1 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Calendula petals on top and I was thinking maybe some seeds/clays? I want to do cpop. This is for my Mom and I want it to be a banging soap!! Any crazy ideas? I have butters, most oils, lots of clays, ect. Thanks for some imagination...

Stella1952 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I make mine CP with triple strength coffee (substituted for H20) and coffee grounds for abrasion. You could certainly CPOP as well. The soap formula itself is high in cleansing properties offset by a high conditioning value. Mine is naturally very dark brown and resembles a hocky puck when cast in a round soap mold. Great for filthy, stinky hands. I scent with garden sage, cinnamon, eucalyptus, peppermint or other fresh smelling scents. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She hates dark soap and lather,(I should have said that) but I can definitely use some coffee grounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
