Soap Makers Fall Swap (BOXES SENT!!!!!)

[cheeptrick]

JUST got my box!!

BEAUTIFUL soaps everyone! Sorry about the pumpkin flakes mucking up the labels!!
Amber...I jumped in the shower with EARTH Child right away...I smelled patchouli and orange...right??

I cannot wait to try the rest!

 

[Morgaine]

Woohoo! Hope everyone else gets theirs today too.

I used the earth child blend on rainbow meadows site. It's Lemon, Orange (I used 5 fold sweet), Lavender and patch. Let me know what you think of the bar when you get a chance.

Arrrrr! I'm so jealous! Maybe mine will come tomorrow.

Ggggrrrrrr.... It will be tomorrow on mine since I'm so far away.... and the USPS is not as bad as FedEx but they're up there....

 

[Morgaine]

I don't know, Cheeptrick must have some good mojo because you would think Tennesse and alabama would get there before New England from Texas.

I think I forgot to send a note to everyone, but the cotton ball looking thing in the baggie is silk for everyone to try. It should be enough for about 40-50 pounds of soap. A little goes a long way.

Should of checked the mail before I posted. The package came.

It's like an early Christmas! I see I'm the only one that didn't put their soap in plastic baggies. Sorry.

Should I wait till everyone gets their package before I start posting reviews?

ETA: Thanks for the silk! I could not figure what it was.

 

[ametauss]

Amber -- how do you use the silk in soaps??

Not that I got my box yet but there's always today's mail.... The anticipation is killing me....

 

[cheeptrick]

Ok...I just washed my hands 7x's

I'm going to rate them using the hardness, cleansing, conditioning, bubbly, creaminess scale on soap calc. 10 being the most 1 being the least AND what my favorite thing about each bar.

CW- Hard-10, Cleansing-10, Conditioning-10, Bubbly-9, Creaminess-7 YOUR scent reminded me of my grandmother's perfume (thanks for those good memories grandmama) and your swirl was lovely! (-: EDITED TO ADD I loved the seeds also!!

Blue Swirled Goatsmilk Bar- Hard-11, Cleansing-10, Bubbly-8, Creaminess-7 THAT was an awesome swirl and I loved that you had NO soda ash at all!

TM Chickens- Hard-8, Cleansing-10, Conditioning-10, Bubbly-10, Creaminess-8 When the water hit your scent it multiplied x100!! VERY nice bar! I prefer my soap softer!!!!

NanaKat- Hard-10, Cleansing-10, Conditioning-10, Bubbly-8, Creaminess-7 Your lard bar was my favorite!! You really used so many oils and that is my favorite part...you are a soaper who LIKES to experiment. LOVED the sea algae also!

Morgaine- Hard-10, Cleansing-10, Conditioning-10, Bubbly-10, Creaminess-8 I smelled like an OLD Hippie all day yesterday! Your scent was very strong and lasted very well...and YOUR BAR was simply PERFECT! OH and I liked seeing the size of the 4x6 muslin bag...I've never ordered them so I think I'm going to order them now! I cannot WAIT to use the silk!! Thank you!!!!!!! DH gave you all 10's!! (-:

Badhbh- Hard-10, Cleansing-10, Conditioning-10, Bubbly-10, Creaminess-10. My first thought was this is a hot process soap...am I right? IT WAS THE MOST CREAMY LATHER OF ALL THE SOAPS. YAY for meat soap!

Ameteuss...Hard-10, Cleansing-10, Bubbly-10, Creaminess-8 AND I loved the soap pocket...WAY nice...going to steal that idea YES I am!!

NOW for MINE....
Cheeptrick- Hard-8, Cleansing-5, Conditioning-5, Bubbly-7, Creaminess-5 This soap was NOT gelled...I tricked you all!! HAHAHA Also...superfatted it at 35 % to show you it can BE done...which takes away the cleansing properties. I personally hated this bar...the scent was weak, the pumpkin flakes UMMM just gross, THE only part of this bar I like was the carrot juice layer. So there...I gave myself the worst review.

THIS WAS SUPER FUN!! Thank you all who participated.

 

[Badhbh]

The meat soap was indeed hot process, with lots of castor oil

I got my soap yesterday!!!! Everyone did such a wonderful job

I have not used them all yet and I have to admit that I used your Dragon's Blood soap first Amber

I can't help it, I absoloutly LOVE that scent

I don't know wich bar to use next. I thing I'll have to use cheeptrick's way of doing it. Other wise it will take me forever to get through them all. And I can't wait to use all the goodies that came in the box. Thanks for the silk Amber. I am going to use it with this next batch of soap that I do. I have to make more of my better selling ones. The next one is a peppermint and vanilla EO combination. The lotion is divine and I love the that I now have have a jar of the black salve. I have been wanting to make some but I haven't been able to order anything for a while. This will give me a good chance to see if I want to attempt making it. I love all the scents and looks of everyones soaps. And the meat soap smells great and I think it looks great as well. I will definitly have to start washing even more then I do now lol. I love soap
