Making Canyon Blues Cold Process Artisan Landscape Soap

Arizona Blue skies with a glowing sun setting over the horizon… This month, the soap challenge club technique was creating natural looking stones and marble with cold process soap. Although I’ve decided not to enter this once, I’ve made my own rocks by depicting the Grand Canyon in this landscape design.
This is an amazingly fresh, clean and somewhat manly yet unisex scent that has top notes of jasmine followed by notes of bergamot. Fruity notes of melon, peaches and wild berries come through on a base of musk and amber, finishing with deep woods. It is a new favorite of mine!
I hope you enjoy this video! And if you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments below.

Totally cool and beautiful. I had no idea it was such an in depth process.

[@CreamyObsession]

Glad you liked it!

[@punkcandy07]

I would love to see a video about your entire process, from how you plan out your bars, how you make the pieces for sculpting, ect.

[@CreamyObsession]

Thanks for the idea! I'll definitely think about it!

[@jam4448]

Creamy Obsession same! I'm not a soap maker and I'm really interested 🤣 you must do a lot of mathematics with your soaps, especially when you calculate how many you'll put in the layers in order to scrape off through all layers in this soap. So amazing as always!

[@snwfxnglcrcst]

yes! these are amazing and the design process must be super interesting, would love to see it!

They are too beautiful to use. Thanks for all the effort you put in. Kudos 2u!

[@nisa3612]

@@CreamyObsession btw, how much time do you need before adding each layer? Thanks

[@CreamyObsession]

It really varies, as it is dependent on so many factors... different fragrances and colors can speed up or decelerate trace, plus it depends on how thick the batter is when you pour it... whether you were going for a pour or design that requires a thin batter to fill small crevices or make an ombre, etc or one that should be brought to a thicker trace to mound in a certain part. Sometimes these can be poured and shaped in 5-10 minutes, and other times it can take as long as several hours.

[@nisa3612]

@@CreamyObsession oh I see, thanks, and, should I make several batches of mixture over time (not make all at once at the beginning) when making this many layers because it can harden in the mixing cup before we pour it to the mold? (Sorry my English is so messy 😅)
