Are you a patchouli person? I spent years of of life living in Colorado, seemingly the patchouli capital of the US. I had a love and hate relationship with it. I like it, in small quantities, but in excess it can be overwhelming. Fortunately for me, and for patchouli lovers the world over, it can be blended with other fragrances to create something less overwhelming.
This week, I'm releasing a soap that features a fragrance just like that!
No. 28 - Smell Sexy and Don't Get Murdered
If this name sounds familiar, it's probably because it's a riff on the phrase "Stay Sexy and Don't Get Murdered", which is popular amongst true crime fans that call themselves Murderinos. The color combo and fragrance (Called Bitches Brew by it's manufacturer) made me think about badass women... so here we are. Smelling sexy, like patchouli blended with pine, vanilla and violet.
This design was *supposed* to be a skinny shimmy, but I didn't use a tall and skinny mold and I think I complicated the design and shimmied it too much.. so instead, I see boobs. Do you see it? Or is it just me? #lactationconsultantintraining
Next up, my lovelies, is a soap inspired by childhood and requested by my child!
No. 29 - Cherry Paper Pulp
This bar is a partially rebatched confetti bar. I'm gonna level with you. The first incarnation of this soap was hideous. ABSOULTELY HIDEOUS. So I grated it up and rebatched it, leaving some of the soap shreds in tact, giving it this cool paper pulp look.
The scent on this one is called "Cherry Bomb" and let me tell you... my kitchen smelled JUST like Dr Pepper for several days after I made it. My older kiddo loves this scent.
Lastly, we have a brown sugar salt bar.
