5th CP!!

Assalamualaikum,

please feast your eyes on my 5th CP soap.

i wanted it to look different from the previous soaps so its stripey!!

this one is Canola Oil, Olive Oil, Palm Oil, Sunflower Oil, Coconut Oil, Coconut Milk, NaOH, Grounded Almonds, Turmeric Powder, Activated Carbon Powder, Patchouli Essential Oil, Black Pepper Essential Oil & Sweet Orange Essential Oil..

top pix: this was after the pour..

this was when i tried to do some pattern on top!

this is a very nice view from the side.. 

well, i loike!!

this is, obviously, the top view..

boleh laa..

cut bars..

as you can see the farthest one on the left is the biggest size.. 

i wanted to have 8 bars but somehow i ended with 6+ 1 giant!!

you can see the grounded almonds, not so grounded actually.. 

did end up with some slightly chunky pieces.. but this chunky is still not that chunky but still chunky, get me?

different design on each bar ... =)

not so bad size too  =)

had some problem 

see the colour..

got white stuff on it.

maybe ash..

because I didnt cover it? maybe?

my standard way of arranging soap (blurry pic)

top view..

stacked view

more stacked view..

serious white problem

very serious..

sigh..

chao chao!!

Same but thicker with Almonds as a sCrUbBy!

Salam,

Feast your eyes..

sabun ni sama cam the last one but i cut it thicker.

and i mixed almonds kat dalam sabun instead of tabur kat atas.

ada serbuk kunyit, 

serbuk charcoal ke carbon. m dah confused.

ada cili kering blend, ada serbuk kayu manis.

see the colours!!

the texture for the top..

i only have 4 double bars left.
gave one to my aunty.
one to my cousin and
i was supposed to give one to an old friend.
have not had the time to do so yet.

the top texture, i used the back of a spoon. i like!

the soap is still soft.
i added a lot of water when i was melting it.
i dont like grating soap.
but you got to do what you got to do!

havent used it yet.
it is going to turn mushy in my hand even after the first use,
guaranteed.
like the sister soap.
but the almonds will feel like a scrub, hopefully =)
i like scrubby soaps!

tau. sabun ni panjang sangat kan..

nanti potong dua k.

chao

4th Batch!! Curdled again!!

Salam,

My 4th batch, curdled. 

not as much as my 1st batch. 

still, it curdled.

see pics below.

nice colour haa ;)

looks so creamy.. 

bahan-bahan yang digunakan ialah 

minyak kelapa sawit, minyak zaitun, minyak canola, dan NaOH. 

tak lupa juga santan kelapa sebagai ganti air.

no fragrance.

 

see the texture?

cantik kan...

bila lagi nak perasan..

hehehe

i lined it all in a box.. love the texture..

you cant really see the curdled spots. pix not clear.. the white dots..

 

so i grated it..

letih giler dok garit sabun ni k.

next round kena lebih berhati-hati.

the coconut cream must not be too too frozen.

nanti curdle lagi, lagi payah!!

melted it and added cili kering 

ayah kata kalau kulit tu luka, kena cili ni mesti pedih.

tapi m dah letak dah, tak leh nak buat apa-apa lagi.

pedih nanti pun pedih laa..kalau ada luka laa.

i also added cinnamon and activated charcoal powder..

cili kering tu nampak cam kaler oren.

cinnamon tu nampak cam brown ke purple?

and activated charcoal doesnt really look grey, 

nampak cam kaler biru pun ada gak. kan? 

blue grey gitu..

kat atas ni gambar sabun yang dah dipotong..

if you can see in some pictures, i sprinkled and pressed hard, on top, crushed almonds..

as hard as i pressed it doesnt stick to the soap much!

why o why!!

yang ni gambar 2 hujung..
the top end, can see that i didnt pack the soap nicely coz
you can see some gap there between the coloured soaps.

 

you can see that each bar is different from one another.
all unique bars..

cun!!

top picture,
the brownish purplish one - cinnamon,
(macam kaler lebam kan..)
orangy - dried chilli powder
bluish grey - activated charcoal powder.

see the lines in top picture, that was made when i cut the bars,
the crushed almonds followed the knife as i cut.

i cut too thin..
and senget benget
so ada yang gemuk at one end and thinner kat hujung.

gambar2 atas ni ialah gambar2 yang gatal nak dimasukkan

ye la, pas guna nanti dah tak ada proof nak tunjuk atau nak ingat balik , 

"oo m, pernah buat sabun pelik ni.."

hahaha

chao!!
