so here it comes, my first try in soap making. a lovely tiramisu soap. it was so hard not to try and eat the stuff 🙂
this is what i did: dived my melt and pour soap into two parts.
part 1 – mixed it with coffee oil, coconut oil and brown food coloring
part 2 – mixed it with vanilla oil, coconut oil, one drop of yellow food coloring and real amaretto
then i poured it in layers into a cake tin. on the top i sprinkled a little cocoa.
it just smells incredible!
and this is what it looks like:
here is the first try making my own cosmetics! it is lip balm with chocolate mint flavour (and colour). i used beeswax, shea butter, sweet almond oil, milk chocolate and peppermint flavour oil.
so easy, so delicious! doesn’t it look lovely?! i can hardly keep myself from eating the stuff.
