Cocoon Creations - Touch of Silk

Full of goat milk and loaded with Turmeric

"For Eternity"

My entry for this month's . I have not been able to participate in the competitions much this year and have been quite on social media too. Lots going on my side.

But it feels good to be back.

This month we had to showcase the use of milk in our soaps. I use goat milk or coconut cream in all my soaps . But this month it was a different technique of incorporating the milk. I froze the goat milk and used lye to replace water completely. We also had to leave atleast 50% of the soap uncolored to showcase the color that milk typically imparts.

I wanted to embrace simplicity of fluid soap batter and the endless possibilities of pour techniques. I retried this technique after a few years now. Credit

Hope you like it.

Thanks Amy for teaching us this.

Best wishes from our family to yours

As this year's Soap Challenge Club contest comes to an end, i am happy and grateful to be placed Third in the winner's category. I almost didn't make the soap as I was under the weather.

Thank you to everyone who voted for my design. I am most grateful. 🙏


Congratulations to the winners and everyone for coming up with such creativity. Great job everyone.

Thank you Amy and bubble 🫧 support team 💙 ❤️

Thank you Majestic Mountain Sage for your generous sponsorship.

My bonus entry for this month.

I like the abstractness of this one but my colors were tending to lose the delicate feathering . But I still love this as if it tells a story .

"Meanderer"

This is my entry for this month's .

We revisited the Kiss pour technique this month which is inspired by fluid acrylic pour by Olga Soby. Joanne Watkins introduced it to our soap making community in 2019.

The traditional kiss pour technique involves pouring the colors from 2 containers in one spot. Variations include pouring the soap in multiple spots in the slab. For my design I chose the traveling kiss pour where there is lot more movement in each bar.
The key challenge is to ensure a fluid batter without making the colors murky.

I was toying with color scheme for this month and then I asked my kids for ideas. My 6 year old immediately said rainbow 🌈. And it sank in my head 🙃.

I used 7 colors total , one of them being white.

Hope you like it.

Thank you, Amy, for hosting the challenge this month and to bubble support team 🙌.

Thank you for sponsoring this month's challenge. I love some of your fragrance oils.
