Brenda Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 ...get the coloring the way I want. This attempt comes closer to what I have in mind, but isn't there yet. Here it is all trimmed up. Pardon the poor pic. It's a gloomy morning and I haven't yet made a "light box" for taking pictures.For this recipe and scent I've tried: white & moss green swirled, a layered bar which I didn't like at all because this recipe doesn't hold the oxides in suspension well during the gel and I get separation no matter how thoroughly I blend it, and now these blues. I seem to be coloring impaired with this recipe. :rolleyes2 But I do love the soft aqua mica I used for swirling that I got from Kimberly's co-op! Maybe next time color the base with the mica and swirl with only the blue....I can't give up on this formulation because it is a very moisturizing body bar that is requested by repeat customers. Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 So try it the way you just listed if you don't like it this way I think it looks great, but I can see it with an aqua background and blue swirls too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerriWV Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Well, I don't see anything wrong with it at all. I'd say heck with it and leave it the way it is. Very pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenda Posted June 7, 2006 Author Share Posted June 7, 2006 Thanks, everyone! Nice! Hope you are enjoying your summer I've been doing CHORES that I never seem to have time for when I'm working. That and making a little soap and bombs! (Which is the fun part.) I'll really relax next week when my husband and I fly to New Mexico.... Thanks for the sentiment, smellywax!
