Gorgeous! What do you use for colour? I love the lilac colour. And the white one is your single oil soap? Can't wait to hear how it lathers after it cures! I tried some true "Castille" soap, with just Olive Oil and it looked great but the lather was goopy. Wait to go! xo Jen

Thanks!

Jen-I used pop micas for colors. The lilac ended up being a combo of grape pop and titanium dioxide since I had to dump the swirled soap back into the pot so that I could add in my forgotten fragrance oil. :p

I am eager to see if the avocado soap will be usable like castille. It is so incredibly hard and white and has similar properties to olive oil. I find castille to be goopy too, although a super long cure seems to really help with that.

I love the mild swirls in the tangerine vanilla. I'll bet it smells delish too!
