Final Soap Pour

AH! The end is here! I have poured my final soap of the semester. I am not going to lye (pun intended), the smell of aloe Vera is starting to make me want to vomit! Quite like a pre-assessment and a final assessment, this soap is exactly the same as the soap that I created for my very first attempt seven weeks ago. For my final post, I hope to have a side by side comparison of the visual aesthetics of the two soaps.

This soap is simple, well at least today it was! Now that I have a mojo going, this process does not take me an entire evening anymore! After doing some reading on a Facebook group I joined, I started to realize the “chunks” in my soap are not bad things! Whew! That was something that I was really irritated about, that it seemed like I could never mix the aloe enough to turn it into a smooth gel. This is what they are calling pulp. The irony is that I hate orange juice with pulp so I subconsciously realized why I was so angry about the pulp in my soap!

Check out my process here, and stay tuned for my final reflection post about my soap-tastic adventure!
