Infinity Swirl Soap on Soap Queen TV

Filed Under: Cold Process Soap

The infinity swirl is a beautiful method for adding an interesting design to your soap. And it’s really easy to do! The Multi-Pour Sectioning Tool is a re-usable tool perfect for this technique, but you can make your own out of cardboard. Although I love the wispy look, if you want a bolder design just use a swirling tool with a wider diameter (like a spoon handle) to drag more of the colors together. Scented with a blend of Lime and Crisp Anjou Pear fragrance oils, this soap smells fresh, sweet and crisp. Find out how to create it via the Soap Queen TV video below!

  1. Now that Brambleberry makes the sectioning tool for the smaller mold, I tried it and cut it this morning. Of course, I had to adjust the amounts and colors for the smaller batch so it is slightly different. However, it turned out great. Thanks for the idea. I have a bag of quickmix and I think I’m going to try the red, white and black hanger swirl you folks just posted.

    Check it out on youtube.com under theorgelmeister

  2. I would love to make this recipe, but I only have an 8″ silicone mold and no Multi-Pour Sectioning Dividers : (
    Last time I tried sectioning with cardboard, it was a bust !! Are there any dividers in Brambleberry that I could purchase that will fit my mold? Thank you : )

    • Hi Rosy!

      Right now, we only have dividers for the 5 pound Wood Loaf Mold. However, if those cardboard dividers were giving you trouble, you can also try out plastic (like maybe a thin cutting board). You could also use glass, or anything around the house that would give you straight lines! 🙂

      Make sure to avoid aluminum – that can react with the lye and create toxic fumes.

  4. Hi,
    I’m a newbie to soap making. Love your site! I want to make a spicy masculine scented soap. Maybe like old spice zanzibar or safeguard beige. Have you got any suggestions?

    Thank you,

    Scott

    • Hi Zapp!

      That’s a great question! We don’t factor those in when calculating the oils for our main batch. The added oils are typically very small, so they’re just a little extra luxury for your bar. 🙂

      If you prefer, you can factor the color amounts into your recipe. To do so, mix those colorants with 1 Tbsp. of oils from your main batch of oils. That will ensure no extra oil is added and your colorants are dispersed evenly. 🙂

      • Thanks Kel,

        So do you mean that as a tablespoon is 0.5 oz that if you were using 4 colors than that would be 2 extra ounces. So you should run that through the lye calculator? And if you don’t, wouldn’t that just be considered superfat? I’d just like to know because I’m not partial to oily feeling soaps.

        Thanks again!

        P.S. I’d also like to offer a suggestion that for any other recipes you guys put forth could you always give a suitable, more common substitute for any exotic oils you guys use. I can’t imagine a whole lot of people have chia seed oil laying around.
