Suds Soap Log ~ Candy Land

Soap logs can be so much fun! Everytime I unmold a log of

Candy Land, I think to myself, "I have to get a picture of this!!"

Well, this morning I finally did.......... :-) This one has me drooling!

SUDS SOAP DISPLAY

This past weekend we had such a great time at our SUDS show! We met so many nice people and had a lot of laughs. It seems that the world is full of scent junkies......it is good to know that we aren't alone! We'd like to welcome of all of our newbie SUDS addicts to the greatest addiction in the world. :-)

DETOX FOR HIM - Detoxifying soap bar for men

This SUDS special recipe includes active charcoal and bentonite clay, making Detox For Him a superb facial bar for men. The charcoal and the clay both work to gently draw out impurities from pores while the nutrient rich oils (including Olive, Safflower, and Shea butter) create a fresh, natural and moisturizing bar. Detox for him is fragrance free and a must have for every man who cares about his complexion!

Who says that cold process soap can't be bright and colorful?

Time and time again, we hear people say that they like melt and pour soap because it is fun and colorful. While the bright and colorful soap that you see, many times is melt and pour soap base, it is also often filled with undesirable ingredients, such as surfactants. Because melt and pour can be made with very little time and effort, it is a commonly found "handmade soap" on the market. The process of making melt and pour is quite simple. Just melt down the commercial soap base, add your color and fragrance, pour in your mold..... voila! Cold process soap from scratch, on the other hand, takes a month to ready and a great deal of skill and knowledge regarding the various ingredients involved.

The overall consensus is that soap from scratch looks plain and boring. Well, the truth is that, many times, it is. However, we have worked really hard to go against the grain on this one. We do make our soap from scratch and we do make it bright, colorful and fun. You can have the best of both worlds.

Suds Black and Red Soap

I was playing with some masculine scent ideas and came up with this fun new bar. Hubby says that we should call it SCORPION........I like it! This one isn't ready to hit the stores just yet, but this is definitely one to consider!

I love uncut soap logs!!

When they are good they are Oh So Good! These uncut soap logs are absolutely droolworthy. Lemon Head makes one gorgeous log of soap ..... and that makes me one happy soaper! =) I think that I will post more pics of uncut soap logs in the future, for your viewing pleasure. They are so darn cool that I think they need to be seen before they are chopped up into individual bars. I can't be the only one that appreciates their unique beauty........ can I?

Spice So Nice!

With the start of a new school year just around the corner, that good old Fall feeling is creeping into my bones. I decided to play with two of my favorite "cozy" kind of scents, cinnamon and vanilla. The result is a fabulous shea butter bar with the most AMAZING fragrance!! Warm cinnamon and spices swirled with the richest, creamy, french vanilla. This is so incredibly dreamy! I have not stopped sniffing my hands since washing with this bar...... I think I've done it 5 times while typing this entry! :-)

This recipe is definitely going to be added to the SUDS line, the moment that it is finished curing! This is a must have!
