This weeks soap making!

Hi girlies, Ive had a pretty busy week working on a few new products and re-stocking some of the favourites. The best thing for me about making products is the constant learning curve that you take when creating.


Freshly cut this morning is my Zingy Lemon Slice. This is made with Shea butter, coconut oil, palm oil, olive oil, sweet almond oil, Castor oil, and silk. I used a new nozzle for the piping on top and really like how it turned out. I'm loving all the fresh vibrant scents right now.



Today i had my first attempt at an all coconut recipe for soap. This is 100% coconut oil with added goats milk and a super fat of 23% so it should be really bubbly and moisturising. It wasn't the easiest of soaps to make as it didn't want to blend together very well and so we will have to see what its like when i cut it. Fragranced with a sweet coconut it reminds me of holidays.


I also made a repeat soap of my Strawberry slice. This one has a biscotti fragranced base made with oatmeal for a light exfoliation and a delicious strawberry scent topping. This sells really well so i try to keep it well stocked.



Lastly i made my first attempt at making sugar flowers. I use them to go on the top of bath bombs and they are quite expensive to buy if you use them a lot like me so i thought id give it a shot. I know they are not perfect but I'm quite pleased with them as a beginner. I will use these when i make my next batch of vanilla cupcake bath bombs.


Thanks for reading and hope you all had a good weekend xx
