whippey? not whipped.





well... im not crazy bout the whole whipped soap thing. im definitely not whipped. cutting it was TERRIBLE, even with wire. tried the knife first and you can just forget that. the wire was better, but i really cant say im a fan of the soap. well, thats not entirely true, the soap itself is nice. ive got a high content of kokum butter and shea in it.. which makes it a really nice bar of soap, but i dont like the look. it feels nice... but eh, that choppy rough edge thing just gets to me. smells wonderful... grapefruit and sweet orange essential oils in it, with a tad of peppermint. its a real nice scent.

one great thing about it? it makes perfect soap for molded embeds in other soap bases. its fluffy creamy texture is perfect for molding, almost like playing with soft fimo clay! so with the ends i cut off i rolled into tiny little dots... for my next batch, the chocolate polka dot soap. ( see photo above) lol..
