New Soaps

Honey Soap

My trip to "Madu Pramuka" is always a nice trip.  I bought honey (of course), bee pollen and beeswax there.  This soap made with honey I bought there and lightly scented with coconut lime verbena fragrance oil.






Rice Soap

Since I read an article about the benefits of rice for skin, I want to make a rice soap. Then I have this cute mold, why not using it?  Little girls loooove this soap :)






Facial Bar

For facial bar, special oils were selected :olive, coconut, rice bran and palm. No artificial color and fragranche.  The left one is activated charcoal and rice powder, the middle one is rosehip and rice powder, the right one is actually Sirih soap. Made with homemade sirih leaves powder and Sirih essential oil. Women love this soap for personal hygiene.

Milk Soap

When I first made milk soap, I have no idea that it will turn brown (I hoped to see pure white soap :D).


This is 3 milk : cow milk, rice milk, and oatmeal milk, frozen.


I added the lye to this frozen milk.  It made orange-brown lye solution. This is the result.

Ingredients : Coconut Oil, Palm Oil, Canola Oil, Water, Sodium hydroxide, Milk powder, Oatmeal powder, Rice, Essential Oil

I used essential oil blend: peppermint, fennel and nutmeg.  No additional color.

Rice Soap

I ordered this silicone mold a while ago and have no idea what to do with it so I made this rice soap.

Here are the soaps

This soap is made with palm oil, castor oil, canola oil, sodium hidroxide, water, rice powder, and sugar. Lightly scented with fruits fragrance oil blend and colored with cosmetic mica.  I'm happy with this one, the leather is nice and not drying.  The shape makes it forgiving for me who can't cut soap straight to save my life :D

3. Plain Bars

I get this commet quite often : your soap is too pretty to be used (honestly I feel there are way more prettier soaps than mine), so I made these plain bars. They are colored with milk (although milk is not colorant but in CP soap sometimes it makes your soap a bit tan), orange peel powder, paprika infused oil, and simply Titanium dioxide.




4. Pink Roses

Actually I wanted to make red roses but came up with this color ;(.  So far my attempts for really red color (just like Indonesian flag) hasn't been successful.  I'm quite happy with the result anyway.  This soap is scented with Rose FO
