Genius Hour Week 5

Over the weekend Ella and I went to Rocky Mountain Soaps, we bought 4 different soaps in hope to compare them with the ones we made.

We bought lemongrass, lavender, pumpkin and cedar wood & fir.

This is what the soap base looks like before we put it into the microwave.

After putting the soap in the microwave for a few seconds at a time it became liquid. Once we mixed in the scent and color we realized that the soap base hardens very fast. We noticed this when we were making our fist soap and recognized that for the upcoming soaps we would have to work a lot faster in order to put the soap in the mold before it solidified.

This is what the soaps looked like after it set and we packaged them.

This is the side to side comparison of our lavender (the bottom one) and the Rocky Mountain Soaps (the top one).
