Pineapple Soaps

We have been busy In our soap kitchen these past few weeks. There been no time to really sit and blog.  So it's time to catch up.  We wanted to use up a fragrance that our shop just loves.  So pondering what to do with the rest of our Jungle Love fragrance from Natures Garden we decided on a Pineapple soap. Nodding some research on pineapple it has a lot of great skin and health benefits.  It's a natural anti inflammatory fruit and can act similar to ibuprofen.  Wow, who knew! It removes dead skin cells and brightens your skin. Great for the winter.  It's aids with bruises and sprains.  So drink it up and use it on your skin. 

Fresh purée pineapple 

after emulsion we added the pineapple to the soap. It's sparkling in here. Beautiful. 

we used a white TD for half the batch of soap. Green and yellow for the other half. 
Love the colours 
We poured the white first then poured high to get a deep pour into the mold with the yellow and green. 
Used the rest of the colours to decorate the top and used a skewer to swirl design.  We dropped the left over micas to add extra detail. 
Beautiful!
After we cut it open here is the result.  Gorgeous I think! Our standard recipe of olive, coconut, palm, castor,distill water, sodium hydroxide. Micas from TKB trading.  Their colours stay true in cp soap.
