ladysj Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I received a bar of soap in one of the swaps. It had what looked like to me tiny pebbles for the top layer for the massaging part.I'm thinking they laid a layer of what ever this is/was in the bottom of the mold poured a layer of soap and added more massaging thingies and then more soap.What I'm trying to figure out is what would be the best things to use in this soap for the massaging part? I absolutely loved the feel of the massaging on my body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carmellajarvis Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 What color were they? I use vita burst beads, they are blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 No it's none of those. They look like some kind of seeds or little bitty rocks. I'll have to see if I can find it and try to get a good pic of it. It's an amazing bar. I may just have to dig a piece out to see if it will mash like a seed or not.

carmellajarvis Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 May sound crazy, but do they look like poppy seeds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Was there a list with ingredients on the label? Since you received it in a swap, PM the person that made it.ETA - I would like to know too what it is. You've got me wonderin.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I've put tapioca pearls in my soap, but they are round, and white... And I had them throughout the bar (which made cutting interesting).I think I sent them out in a swap, probably OMH scented and a tan bar???Or maybe it's not me!

ladysj Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 The label is long gone. It was from the Essence of Nature swap I think it was called that Grandma Arial hosted. I'll have to see if I can find out who made it. If I find out what they are I'll let ya know.Of course I can't find that damn bar of soap now. I saved some of to see if I could figure out what they were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockmonkey Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Coffee grounds?Lemon peel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 I got it in the Quench My Thirst Drinks of Summer Swap. Shannon WY made them. Maybe she will chime in here.No they are about the size of a split pea but not split LMAO They they have to be some kind of seed I would think but I just have no clue what kind of seed they could possibly be. I just can't see putting little bitty rocks in there due to drain issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carriegsxr6 Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 sounds like whole coffee beans or something. Was it the iced vanilla late one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovescents Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 She may have used Apricot Seeds. I use them for my kitchen soap. I love the refreshing massage and exfoliation it gives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 sounds like whole coffee beans or something. Was it the iced vanilla late one?Bingo Carrie I think you might be right. Gonna have to buy a few and give them a try.It really did a great job of massaging really made me feel relaxed. So I'm going to buy some and try to make a small batch of cp with them and see what happens. I'll keep ya posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Lush has a massage bars with adzuki beans - nice in theory but the execution leaves something to be desired... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
