- This is the soap I created for the Soap Challenge Club's secret or reverse feather swirl challenge. I decided to do both swirls in one soap. Thanks so much for watching!

In case you’re interested, I have an affiliate store where I’ve listed all of the soap making supplies and materials that I purchase on Amazon: www.amazon.com/...
If you use those links to buy anything, it won’t cost you anything extra, but I will receive a very small percentage of the sale. Every little bit helps, though, so thank you very much if you do! :)
For the blue, I used a method by Amy Warden, host of the Soap Challenge Club. Amy's method involves dissolving the blue indigo powder in a small amount of oil and letting that sit for a little while. It worked perfectly and left no specks or grit. After going through gel phase, the blue was even darker. For the green, I tried the same method, but the green indigo powder just wouldn’t dissolve and left specks. In this soap, I simply used my green indigo infused oil (amounts listed below).
Remember to always wear safety glasses and gloves when making soap. If you've never made cold process soap before, check out these helpful videos:

This is so beautiful! Where can you find green indigo?
Thank you! The place I purchased mine has gone out of business. But oat straw and nettle leaf powders each produce similar green colors and seem to be easier to find.
Gyönyörű lett:)
hermoso!
Gracias! :)
Amazing. Your designs are the best I've seen. Creatively beautiful. How long do you let your soap set before unmolding?
+Valisha Saadiq Thank you! I usually try to keep them covered for at least 24 hours just to avoid soda ash on top. If the soap is still soft, I will open the mold at 24 hours and then allow it to sit for a few more (just until I know it won’t dent or anything when I touch it). Thanks for asking!
Thanks for sharing the video, it's a great technique. The soap is amazing! After how long did you unmould the soap?
Thank you!! I let this batch sit covered for a couple of days to prevent any ash forming on top. It was still slightly soft when I unmolded and removed the paper, so I let it sit for another 4 hours until the corners were harder. I will normally unmold & unwrap my softer soaps (very carefully) and allow them to dry a bit longer before cutting. If the liner paper pulls the sides, I just wet a papertowel with distilled water and wipe the sides smooth. Thanks for asking!
So Pretty
