As promised, more soap!

Here are the rest of the new soap pictures. I am sure I mention this a lot, but Dylan sure can take nice pictures of soap. Luckily all he "charges" me is for his regular shower/shampoo soap and the occasional shaving soap. Pretty good deal don't you think?

This first soap is my Sensitive skin bar. It is made with all kinds of oils that are great for sensitive skin. This bar feels so smooth in the shower, I just love to use it.

This soap hasn't actually changed in look, but we took some new photos anyways. This is Lavender Shea. It has a nice calming scent and smooth texture. If you look closely you can see the tops are brushed with a purple mica to give them some shimmer.

Up next is Jewelweed and Comfrey. It is made with olive oil infused with both of the herbs. Very nice bar of soap and these herbs are reputed for getting rid of the oils from a poison ivy bush.

This is my Jasmine Salt bar. Lovely scent and pretty color. The salt is a fine grain so it does not scratch. It makes a nice lotion-like lather.

Now to make some ginger souffle salt bars! Just need to decide how to make them look...any suggestions?

Eucalyptus Perfume Oil


In high school, I always carried around my roll on tube of Opium essential oil "perfume" and I thought I would try to come up with something similar. I made this essential oil "perfume" using eucalyptus essential oil diluted in sweet almond oil and a little vitamin e t-50. I do like it, but I think I will increase the amount of essential oil since the scent is not quite as strong as I would like. I used 8 drops of essential oil in about 8 mL of carrier oil. Anyone else made something like this?

Green tea deodorant

I just took a picture of the labels I made for my deodorant that I wanted to post. I think I need to make them taller and increase the logo size so there is more color. I really love this deodorant though. It withstands hard workouts and still keeps me smelling eucalyptus-ie.
