Genius Hour Update

Devan and I have got the basics down for making the soap and now we are working on the aesthetics of them. We used bubblewrap to make a honey-like texure on the top of the soap bar. We used honey, oatmeal, coconut oil (after seeing how great it worked last time) and yellow dye so that you are able to tell what theme we based this soap off of. All of these ingrediants are awesome to keep your skin moisturized.

This is what the soap looked like before we used the bubblewrap and scroll down to see if it worked out how we had hoped…

IT WORKED!

Thank you,

Stay tuned for next week, as we will be posting our plan for our presentation in February and how we have progressed over that period of time!

Genius Hour Update

Devan and I were informed that Coconut oil is good for your skin, so we added some to this weeks soap. Rocky Mountain Soaps stated that it helps with skin conditions like eczema. I have eczema so I tested out on my skin and over a couple days, I got the results I wanted! Below is a picture of a message the company sent to us.

Before using the soap After using the soap

The coconut oil we used. Before the soap molded. After the soap molded.

We noticed that the soap was much silkier after adding the coconut oil to it. We also didn’t have to rush putting it into the mold after taking it out of the microwave like we did the times before due to how fast it hardened.
