Thread: WeatherWaxWorkshops ( Homemade soap)

Here's the new one : Houhi-gassen


Bit of a "troll soap" hence the name.
Tried to get as close as possible to cold process soap, to see if you could make a "instamum soap". Turns out, practice says no, theory says no. Two colours that will slowly reveal a "yin yang" hopefully is as far as I could go.

It's a "glycerin soap" like my previous Oulipo. Which means it's a very strange beast when you compare it to the usual shaving soap. Chiefly, it will never be completely dry, and will always have a sweaty/sticky surface.
That's ok, it's a trade-off, which allows me to get something ridiculously easy to load on a brush, and that lathers like a beast.

The fragrance is a delicate and deep mint, with added menthol for an eye-watering freshness. Hinoki adds pepper, tea tree adds depth, lemon zest adds an acid fruitiness.

30% superfat, with coco, shea butter, avocado, castor and jojoba.

Just in time for summer!

Great work
