Purple projects closed out the #SoaptheRainbow series this week. It’s hard to believe it’s already over. We loved seeing all your beautiful creations. There is still time to enter to win a Grand Prize worth more than $250. Enter to win here. If you’re in the mood for more purple inspiration, this blog post has you covered.
The DIY Sugar Scrub Cubes are colored with a few drops of Liquid Violet and scented with Violet Fragrance Oil. They’re made with sugar to exfoliate, Clear Melt and Pour Soap Base to cleanse and sweet almond oil to moisturize. They will leave your skin feeling fresh and clean.
The Violet Confetti Cold Process Soap has Violet Fragrance Oil as well. It fits perfectly with the purple theme. The soap is colored with Queen’s Purple Mica and has Lavender Mica sprinkled on top. To get the confetti look, shredded cold process soap is added to the middle layer. You can grate bars you have around, or use soap scraps from other batches to create the confetti.
Nicole with Nicole’s Apothecary of Soaps used a combination of purple and white in her Lavender Vanilla Soap. Her cute bars are this week’s Facebook Photo of the Week.
The swirl in Nicole’s soap is a perfect base for the detail on top. I love the different hues of purple in the flowers. They’re so cute! For more floral details, check out the Green Meadow Melt and Pour Soap. Real flowers make great soap toppers as well, as seen in the Kombucha SCOBY Cold Process Tutorial.
Above (clockwise, top) are Nicole’s Coconut Citrus Sorbet Soap, Black Tie Soap, Lavender Chamomile Soap and Exotic Coconut Soap. For more purple inspiration, check out the Relaxing Lavender Cold Process Soap. The Melt and Pour Soap Gems are fun to customize with your favorite scents and colors.
