Soap parties in little sparkling !

The last few weeks I really carbureted in soap making. Well yes… the holidays approach and I think that handmade soap makes a wonderful gift. Especially when we did oneself. So I wanted to make very festive know.

When we speak we often think of celebrations with champagne or sparkling I thought it would be nice to give them this key, but hey put champagne in my soap is not yet in my ways !! So I continued my research on the internet and when the fragrance champagne and I we crossed… given that much to this…

HV grape seeds 32 % (well yes a must… champagne… raisin…)
HV coconut 30 %
HV olive 25 %
Palme HV bio 13 %

Water and soda to recalculate
Surgras 7%

Additions to the trace :
Mica noisette + Mica doré
Shiny silver mica food on top
Fragrance champagne

Difficulty : Conservation : Several months

Method of cold saponification :
Always the same for soaps. Melt the oils together. Add soda water (not the other) and cool. When both mixtures, soda + water and oil temperature are 40 ° C, pour the soda water mixture in your oil and mix with a hand blender until the appearance of the trace. Then add the rest of your ingredients (fragrances, oxides and mica) , pour into your molds. Wait 48 h and unmold your soaps with gloves, they cut it if necessary. Place in a dry place for a cure 4 weeks.

Here to create a worse I first put a little mica in my dough. Pay first, add mica, mixed, donate and so on. This is a slight deterioration golden… we do not really see the pictures… it's a shame. I then did the same technique of drawing on my savon Weeds… cutting with a star.

I made it there about four weeks… I will not say how much I look forward to using it ^ ^ !

Still it is after seeing the technique to make nice drops in our soaps with the technique of Ka.

Method that I call “rebound” used for this soap visual

In fact I have done exactly as in the Ka video you can see here… but I did my very slight traces ! This means that my dough was much more fluid than his.

I took a plastic mold from a height of approximately 6 cm I lined with parchment paper. I think the mold material is important for the “rebound” if Fasse. I did this technique in a wooden mold and the effect is not the same but still very nice. I'll show you the result with another of my creation savonnesque.

I separated my dough one remained unchanged and the next I added the turmeric. I poured some of my dough and made clear vertical tracks quickly with my colored paste. With a spatula I applied the rest of my dough and made clear my marbling with the rest of my orange mixture.

Well no it's not that simple ^ ^.

My impression soap
I like turmeric in soaps… here he gave me a pretty rusty ! The foam is very soft and fine. And the smell… oufff but the smell is to die I love !! I would do this synergy that's for sure ! Here I used the’Orange essential oil from at Soapsession, it is really good in soap, which is not the case for all essential oils citrus.
