Jem and the Holograms Soap

When I was kid, I remember watching this show, and I liked it a lot. The show was apparently done to promote the sale of a doll (Barbie like), so it only lasted 3 years. However, according to this article, it has developed a cult following (not literal cult, of course) throughout the world. Most… Continue reading Jem and the Holograms Soap

Gingerbread girls soap

This year I wanted to do a something different to the gingerbread man soap I have done in the past. So I went with a gingerbread girl instead. When making the gingerbread man in the past, I have found that adding all the details with soap dough is very time consuming. So this time I… Continue reading Gingerbread girls soap

Snowflake Soap

I had been waiting for Christmas time to make another snowflake soap and test a theory I had from last year. I am happy to say that it worked, at least with the bars in which I tried the solid pour.

Nativity Soap

So, I recently got into tiktok. Before, I had zero interest in it, because I thought it was all about people (mostly girls) dancing provocatively as they follow a popular dance routine. And yes, it is about that; if that is what you choose to watch, or what you choose in your preferences. However, I… Continue reading Nativity Soap

In keeping with the color of sugarplums (a candy that does not necessarily have plums in it), I also used purple Brazilian clay as a colorant, but I was not very happy how… Continue reading Ballerina Soap

Soap Bonsai

One of my favorite shows to watch, is the Great British Bake Off. Though it has been renamed to Great British Baking Show when it airs in America. As a rule, I do not like watching reality tv or competition shows. There is too much drama and backstabbing among the contestants. But this show (and… Continue reading Soap Bonsai

Pineapple soap

I bought this pineapple fragrance formulator a while back and wanted to test it before using it in a blend.  It smells just like pineapple, or pineapple candy, and has stayed very strong in the soap after 6 weeks.  Pineapple is one of my favorite fruits to eat; however I cannot eat more than a couple… Continue reading Pineapple soap

Mangonada Soap

One of the things I liked growing up in El Salvador, is how accessible buying fruit that is already peeled, cut and ready to eat was.  When I was in middle school, right after class, by the school doors, there was a plethora of vendors selling candy, cookies, watermelon, mango, and a variety of fruit already cut… Continue reading Mangonada Soap

Starry Night Soap with dividers

ā€œIf you hear a voice within you say "you cannot paint," then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced. ā€- Vincent Van Gogh Lately, I have been contemplating the idea of making dividers for scenic soaps, rather than using the sculpted layers technique (soap scrapers). I have come to realize that I… Continue reading Starry Night Soap with dividers
