Candy Cane Soap
Ok, this picture doesn't even do this soap justice. But I had to share....this is my new Candy Cane soap that I cut this morning. It smells just like, well, candy canes!!! I used Moroccan red clay for the coloring and it turned out nice and creamy.
Now, I just have to wait for it to cure...(sigh)....

Star Anise
I just received 1 lb. of star anise from Monterey Spice Co. and was dying to make something with it. So....I made Star Anise soap (but unknowingly...ugh...forgot my dividers at home). Oh well, I'll just have to handcut these. But check out the morphing!
Can't wait to unmold this one and see what I end up with!
Til tomorrow...happy soaping!

Orange Whipped Sugar Scrubs
I've just finished making a batch of Orange Whipped Sugar Scrubs. I can't believe how incredibly simple, yet fantastic this recipe is. I've been making regular sugar body scrubs but hadn't attempted them whipped...until now. Look how fluffy they are....
Available at the soap shop or online at my Etsy shop for $8 (8oz container).

New Holiday Soap!
Well, with a little help from my friends, I made a lovely Spice soap today. It actually turned out better than I thought it would (so far, anyway). I even threw a bunch of unscented soap chunks in my pot to add a bit of intrigue.
I'm not sure exactly what to call it, other than Spice, so let me know if you have any brilliant ideas. It's made with orange essential oil, ground cinnamon and ground cloves...yummmm....smells like the holidays!!

Orange Cocoa Body Butters
I just made these freshly whipped Orange Cocoa Body Butters and they smell so delicious! I love the smell of citrusy orange. Combined with natural cocoa, shea & mango butters, these body butters melt into your skin on contact.
A little goes a long way, so you can apply every day after showering, without having to worry about re-applying later. Your skin will feel soft and moisturezed all day long!
