We created this Bramble Swirl Soap to celebrate our 20th anniversary! It's scented with Bramble Berry Fragrance Oil, which is a delicious blend of berries, white florals, and a touch of amber and musk. The swirl incorporates our favorite colors - pink and purple!

This is an advanced soap project. It requires a good understanding of trace, because you need plenty of time to pour all the colors into the mold and swirl. Be ready to work quickly. To aid in the creation of this recipe, we recommend adding the dispersed colorants into each container before emulsifying the soap. Adding the fragrance to each individual container right before pouring also helps keep the soap fluid longer.

If the soap starts to thicken as you pour, don't panic. Keep whisks nearby to whisk each container throughout the pouring process. This helps keep the soap fluid and pourable. Towards the end when the soap is at its thickest, you can also drizzle the soap with a spoon if pouring become tricky.
💜Bramble Swirl Soap Recipe:
18 Bar Birchwood Mold
Silicone Liner for 18 Bar Mold
5.3 oz. Avocado Oil (7%)
15 oz. Olive Oil (20%)
2.3 oz. Castor Oil (3%)
18.8 oz. Palm Oil (25%)
18.8 oz. Coconut Oil (25%)
15 oz. Rice Bran Oil (20%)
10.5 oz. Sodium Hydroxide Lye
23.5 oz. Distilled Water
3.5 tsp. Sodium Lactate
3.5 oz. Bramble Berry Fragrance Oil
Titanium Dioxide
Queen’s Purple Mica
Merlot Sparkle Mica
Rose Pearl Mica
Activated Charcoal
Once all the soap has been poured into the mold and you're happy with the swirl, insert the dividers. The dividers create 18 perfectly-shaped bars of soap. We recommend promoting gel phase with this batch by covering the mold and placing it on a heating pad for 1-2 hours. A thorough gel phase will help the soap release easily from the dividers. Give the soap a full 3 days before trying to unmold to ensure the bars do not tear.
