I was making one of my all time favorite soaps yesterday. OM Shanti is one of two soaps in my meditation
collection. I have spent the better part
of a year thinking about how this soap should look and the colours I wanted to
use.
At first I thought that this should be a soft looking soap,
with gradient colours, but I’m passionate and fiery inside and that is my inner
peace!
OM Shanti finished
and in the mold. This white mold is the small one from Bramble Berry. It holds
40 oz of soap base.
The Birds Eye View
Gender Appeal: Unisex
The Colours: Red Reef Clay and strawberry red natural
colouring from New directions, Annatto (Liquid) Natural Colouring, French Yellow
clay which is almost green in colour .
The base of this soap
is tinged yellow from the Wheat Germ oil in the formula.
Although the yellow clay is interchangeable with Lemon yellow
natural colouring from New Directions.
Fragrance: This soap
smells wonderful. It’s a blend of Fragrance and essential oil that is reminiscent of top quality Indian incense.
Warm smelling with a slight hint of musk, It imparts a
woodsy, earthy undertone that to me is very grounding.
Dare I say I love this blend!
