Mermaid Success!!!

I checked the soap after only two hours......good thing, it was set and ready to cut. It looks perfect and smells heavenly! In three weeks it should be cured and I can try it out~

Mermaid Sea Salt Bar!

I recently read about the loveliness of Sea Salt Bars. I bought 10 lbs of sea salt and 6 oz of Red Hawaiian Sea Salt. I created my recipe and took the plunge. I've always wanted to make a soap called Mermaid~ I colored it with Spirulina powder and added the red Hawaiian salt for the pink. The scent is ylang ylang; Bulgarian lavender and clementine essential oils............we'll see! It was a 'wham bam thank you ma'am!' kind of soap making experience.... The only step left is waiting for it to set up enough to cut, before it turns rock hard ;) Wish me luck~

ShamPooch Dog Soap

I finally made my first batch of ShamPooch! The neem oil has an interesting smell.......to say the least. In four weeks, I'll bathe Gunner and see how he likes it! I used eucalyptus, cedarwood, and citronella essential oil as well as raw goat's milk and oatmeal. It should be soothing to his skin and a repellent for the fleas and ticks.
