Just made a new batch of White Rose, this is a very feminine bar of soap with the fragrance of, you guessed it, roses.
This bar was made especially for my Mum who only likes using plain white soap, but I just couldn’t resist adding the extra touch of pink:) but she doesn't seem to mind just the small amount of colour and I think it adds the finishing touch to this bar.
It contains Macadamia oil and Mango Butter, both excellent emollients, making it a really nice bar to keep your skin feeling soft and moisturised.

That is a really beautiful soap. What is the colour made with?
ReplyDeleteThank you Ambra, I used pink clay, it normally is a paler pink than this, I must have been a bit heavy handed this time:) I'll probably make it a bit lighter next batch.
ReplyDeleteWow I absolutely love your soap it's just my kind of soap! and pink clay too and roses it's just so pretty,,,x
ReplyDeleteAmber's right! Beautiful colours! And beautiful swirling. How do you get the rose scent... rose water? EO? The EO is sooooo expensive here, I can't really afford it!
ReplyDeleteI love the little touch of color- Perfect for a rose soap. I'm sure your mom is going to love it!
ReplyDeleteQue bonito jabon y el color hermoso besos Magdalena
ReplyDeleteHey Magdalena, lovely Rose soap!
ReplyDeleteI actually do use rosewater for my rose soaps. It's not pricey here and I have made rose soaps without it and can tell that the rose scent is less intense. Truely. Jen, I also use Rose Geranium and Rosewood and add a little Palma Rosa and Patchouli for anchoring
oops! Sorry about the name mix up, AromaBeauty :) Thought your was Magdalena
ReplyDeleteHow gorgeous does this look!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much ladies, I really appreciate it:) I use Essential oil's Jen and they are expensive here too, not much profit in it at all, unless you are a large soap making business, which I'm not, but what can you do when you love making them LOL.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'd use rose water as I'm not sure if the rose fragrance would last and as you'd know, rose otto EO is really out at $188 for just 6mls, phew! I use Rose Geranium and Palmarosa and you still get a lovely rose fragrance, just don't be heavy handed with the Palmarosa, the first batch I made I used too much and it was awful, you only need a little:)
Wow... How did you get the soap so white? It looks so clean and beautiful! All I know is sweet almond makes somewhat white bars, but I've never had enough luck. :P
ReplyDeleteThank you Between Friends:) that mix of oils always seem to give me a nice white bar, I used cold pressed light olive oil in it and that helps.
ReplyDeleteOh this looks delightful and I love how white the soap came out.
ReplyDeleteMARAVILLOSO!!!!
ReplyDeleteBESOS.
