I decided to try a new fragrance oil that I've had sitting on the shelf for some time: Lavender Martini.
Well I thought of Lavender and I though: "Purple". So I decided to do a purple and pink color scheme. Once again I decided to try the drop swirl technique. In the past I have not been very successful with it but recently I have been getting the hand of it little by little.
Here are the final results:
Now...why I'm I complaining...well because I close my eyes and smell the bar and all I can think about is lemons...yes...lemons. That's yellow...I close my eyes, and think yellow, and I open my eyes and I see purple and pink.
I check out the description of this fragrance oil and this is what I get:
lavender martini fragrance begins with top notes of tangy lemon zests, orange, and carbonation; followed by middle notes of spicy bergamot, mint, and lavender; sitting on a base note of rosewood. Tangy Lemon Zest...this is a good lesson to learn next time I soap again. Always double check the notes of the fragrance before you start to dream away...In the mean time. Here is my purple lemon :)
Thanks for checking out my blog! Happy Soaping!

Looks great, I really like the colors Roxana!
ReplyDeleteThank you Laura! I am glad to hear from you! I have been wondering about you and I am glad you are back to blogging!
DeleteThe soap looks fantastic, Roxana! I love the droplet effect, and you got such a nice purple and bright pink.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenny! I really like the combination. Too bad the fragrance did not match the color scheme! LOL!
DeleteI've had that happen to me before! But I think this soap looks great, and it'a perfect Lemony Purple. =)
ReplyDeleteThank you Anne-Marie! Coming from you it makes me feel a lot better! Thanks for checking out my blog :)
DeleteNice work, Roxana!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, it can happen to anyone! What about purple eucalyptus (when green turns into purple), or green lavender (when purple likes to go green)? Well, that happened to me, but the soaps were all used up,anyway! Your purple lemon looks fanatstic!
Thank you for the encouragement Diva Soap!!! Green turning to purple? I would have started to cry :), I'm glad it all turn out ok. Thanks for checking out my blog :)
