MochaMama Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Hi all:I wrote about my select shades mess in the soap talk area, and I finally got around to taking a pic. I was going for dark red and things just careened wildly out of control with the melt and pour soap plus the black aussie clay.Anyhoo, imagine my surprise when I cut the soap (I used an 8x8 brownie pan) and the clay had all settled to the bottom. It has a rather funky look, scented with Dragons's Blood FO from Brambleberry, but this one's staying in my shower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DONNAMAC Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Actually, I really like it too, bet you couldn't do that again if you were really trying. It is very unique, and I don't think you would have any trouble selling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerinarkansas Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Very unique and it does look like a scrubby sponge. I like the look. Ginger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very unique, and I don't think you would have any trouble selling it. You are so right. After such a disaster (which was what I thought at first) I didn't bother writing the color combo down. Oh well, there will be plenty more opportunity for mistakes!Thank you all for such nice comments! You made me look at my soap in a new light - though it was not what I wanted, it didn't turn out too bad.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of looks like a sponge with the scrubby on one side :smiley2: , but I do like it!ANgi That's exactly what I thought! I really do like it. How does the black clay feel - is it slick like a kaolin or more scrubby like, um, one of the others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadryga Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I was expecting something ugly from the thread title, but I actually think those are pretty funky! Like some of them said, looks intentional Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The black clay is really slick - comes right off in the first use, sending black suds down the drain - probably because I used too much. The rest of the bar lathers great and is very smooth and silky feeling. I gave it to DH and he really likes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
