Coconut Lime Verbana

I have been looking for a nice Coconut fragrance.  I browsed the online stores.  Checking out the descriptions and visualizing color schemes.  I happen to come across an interesting combination in Nature's Garden's Website.  Coconut Lime Verbana.  Well that sounded pretty interesting, and the description certainly drew me in:
A citrus bouquet of lime, kumquat, grapefruit, lemon, with a soft floral undertone of jasmine, on a background of musk and sandalwood.

There was also no discoloration, acceleration or ricing.  With that in mind I decided to try something that I have been curious to do.  Soap with Heavy Whipping Cream!

I did dissolve my lye with the water first and used a portion of my water measurement and  subbed it with the cream.  I added the cream to the cooled oils and it worked like a charm. 

The mixture was certainly happy that it allowed me to mix my colors properly.  I was pretty excited when I got the chance to see the final bar.  My drop swirl came out pretty cool! 

 

As always I used Titanium Dioxide for the white, Green Oxide for green and the brown is actually of Activated Charcoal and Orange Oxide :)

I am pretty proud of myself. 

I have been working on a couple of additional batches.  More milk soaps for sure.  I hope to be able to post a blog later this week. 

In the mean time, thanks for checking out my blog!!!

HAPPY SOAPING!
