Mangosteen soap with Eucalyptus essential oil

After a lot of research about how to make Mangosteen soap in various web site. I could not learn any thing much apart from their very nice soap picture. It's a light Purple colour or swirls soap.

Mangosteen have a lot of benefits in health and skin. It's been used to treat skin disorders, fight infection, ... and a very powerful antioxidant.

Excited enough, today I decided to make my very first own Mangosteen soap.

All right, let's do it.
Start with peel off the skin and then take the soft Purple meat to use in soap.

I'm using sieve to milled the fibres.
One thing you may noticed is the colour of the Mangosteen fibres, it's not Purple isn't it ?
I don't understand too.

Infact, it's a brown colour and i'm using fresh fibres. I added the fibres in to the light traced soap then keep mixed thoroughly. I stirred to trace for 10 minutes then poured into mold for set.

I'm abit disappointed with the colour, I thought it will be at least light Purple or Pink.
Turn out, it's more like a green colour with some dark spots.

These pictures are all before curing time. Will se how it will be after curing time. The pH changes may changes the colour, i hope.

Have anyone have any experiences with this soap ? Please leaves your comment.
I'm eager to learn some info from you all. BIG BIG THANKS.
Await to hear from you.

EucaMatcha

It's almost that i'm obsessed with Matcha green tea and hasn't get over it yet.
I have done yet another Matcha green tea recipe with Eucalyptus essential oil.

I hope after curing time, the green tea colour will become a bit brighter.
Love it already.

Gingergrass soap

Hi Everyone,

We are really excited with the release this week our new Gingergrass soap. This is a particularly nice morning soap that has an earthy, spicy aroma that can be emotionally uplifting and at the same time calming. A great way to start the day!!!!

As usual with all of our soaps, we superfat  to 7%, which provides a particularly mild and moisturizing soap suitable for all skin types, and especially those with dry skin. 

We have some limited numbers in stock now (first in best dressed), and are now taking new orders for this new soap.

I plan to make "cup cake soap" recipe to day.
Had been prepare all the mould, the oils, the herbs and everything else.......from yesterday, plus study the technique.

But my cake still look like this, this morning.

Too bad, I cannot allow my product to look like that.
Have to do some "quick fix " immediately, as you have known already that soaps turned jelly just in a minute.

This is my " quick fix " result:

Will have to practice more and more...
Still love my " heart rock " though.
