Not So Spooky and Not So Scary Fun Halloween Cold Process Soap

Halloween Cold Process Soap_eccentricities by JVGIt is already mid September, it’s hard to believe, but it is time to start thinking about Halloween treats for friends and family this year.  I found some fun molds over at the craft store and thought about what better treat than a fun, skin loving soap.  I love making cold process soap and taking into account the cure time, it is now the time to get started.  These soaps turned out very cute and have a wonderful scent.  I used the Amethyst fragrance oil for these soaps.  This fragrance seems to me the perfect blend for Halloween and Fall, so I made a few Halloween soaps and some Fall themed soaps as well.

For these Halloween soaps I used a pour method called in the pot swirl using black, purple and the natural color of the soap. I used two themed molds one fall themed and one Halloween themed. Both were a breeze to unmold the soaps after 24 hours after the pour.

Fun Cold Process Soap for Halloween

First, mix the sodium hydroxide (lye) with distilled water.  I have an aloe vera plant at home, I used the juice of two medium size leaves as part of my liquid.  I also like using coconut milk in my soaps.

Weight and melt your oils.   Allow the lye solution and oils to cool.  I normally soap at room temperature, it gives me enough time to swirl and have fun with colors.

Mix the lye solution with the melted oils and bring to a light trace, then separate the mix into three equal parts.  For the colors, I used a black oxide and an ultramarine violet. I left one-third of the batter the natural soap color.  For small molds I recommend using the in-the-pot swirl for swirling, it adds an extra visual intricacy and makes for a fun colorful soap.

Pour in the molds and unmold after 24 hours. Allow four to six weeks of curing time before using and the soaps will be just wonderful, super skin loving.

These past few days I have been good at keeping my daily painting practice. I realized I have a few palettes, however, since I mostly use watercolor and regular gouache I sometimes keep the leftover paint in the palette since I can rewet and use it. I found myself looking for another palette and decided […]
