Jennifer says: "The art of soap making is what captured my interest initially. I wanted to learn all of the techniques and learn how to execute them perfectly. I am not a dip your toe in the water kind of person when it comes to learning. I tried Hanger Swirls, Drop Swirls, Splash Swirls, Feather Swirls, Tiawan Swirls, Ombre, Woodgrain....the list goes on. Then one of my coworkers told me that he heard I made soap and he wanted to know if I could make his daughter a Sea Moss soap. She had 3rd degree burns over 70% of her body. I took on the challenge and after about a month of serious research I made her a fragrance free Aloe & Oats Sea Moss soap that she absolutely loved. Then I became much more ingredient based in my soap making. I still love my Swirls, but the recipes are what I work on the most. I never stop formulating. I always have a notebook with me so I can jot down a recipe or an ingredient to explore. I had never liked using artificial colorants, but now I exclusively use all natural ones. Mainly your clays as you know. 😆 I also do Oil Infusions, but your clays pretty much cover any color that I need. I do need more Black, Greylicious, and Dark Green for sure. I just made a soap using a Y Fragrance dupe that sells out all the time. I have already pre sold half of my bars, so I need to get on making another loaf and I have maybe just enough to get it done. I am in love with the bluish grey color I get with Greylicious!!!"
