I was making our best selling Hunter's Moon soap tonight and I took this picture to show how I color our soaps. Using cosmetic grade colorants (color that is safe to be applied to the skin) I custom mix my colors for each soap I make. For example, as shown in the picture, Hunter's Moon is colored with 4 custom mixed colors using a mix of 5 different mica and pigment colorants. You can see the recipe card for my Hunter's Moon soap in this picture. Each soap has it's own recipe card with the exact color combination I designed for that specific scent.

First blog and Christmas soaps
Welcome to our blog!
Here's where Curt and I can share what's happening around the soap shop ( aka kitchen) and
goat barn.
First Christmas soaps of the season were made yesterday. Below is pictured a tray of our best selling Cranberry Orange scented soap. The kitchen smelled wonderful as I was making this soap!
Another holiday edition is Christmas Valley, a fragrance I introduced last season. It became an instant hit. With notes of Siberian Fir and sugared Spruce this is definately not your typical Christmas pine scent. The color this season is different than
last season's but the scent remains the same.
