Two more today

Taking advantage of Paul being away and made two batches of soap last night which I've unwrapped and sliced tonight. 

The first is made of coconut oil, cocoa butter, shea butter, sweet almond oil, olive oil and castor oil so hopefully will be super moisturising. It also contains aloe vera juice and cucumber puree which gives the beautiful green colour and make it really soothing.

The second is made of olive and coconut oil, cocoa butter, shea butter and my new favourite product - mango seed butter. I love the feel this soap has but hope that it doesn't become too hard. The sunny yellow colour is from an annatto seed infusion (the same thing as they use to colour Cheddar and Red Leicester cheese). I used May Chang (aka Litsea) essential oil which is a beautiful cross between lemon and lemongrass - really lovely. Also got to try my new crinkle cutter which is my new toy :) I don't know if you've noticed but I really love this soap. Just got my fingers and toes crossed that it doesn't get too hard....
