Ocean Rain - Behind the Soap



Ocean Rain is one of my favorite soaps right now!  As soon as the fragrance oil got here and I cracked it open... oh man!  The scent is a mix of salty rain, light basil and that wonderful smell right after a storm, ozone.  It's almost indescribable how good it smells.  Also, I got to use my new shimmer mica colorants and they were a blast!  They are the same type of shimmer used in eyeshadow and they really made the soap pop!  Here are a few behind the scene shots.










Aren't those sparkles amazing?  After making this soap I couldn't wait to do a few more with the shimmer micas.  Some of the others are black cherry, lavender and herbs and bamboo.
