Just to clarify..







..that I haven't given up making cosmetics after starting sketching :P
I don't do it every weekend though- just imagine how would I use all the stuff if I keep making every weekend..agreed I give them as gifts too..but still :))

These are some of my recent creations -
Milk Bath Bombs - Yes ofcourse the signature ingredient being Milk Powder to add more moisture. Also tried to color them this time to make them look pretty.
Pink - Pink food grade colorant
Creamy Yellow - Annatto Seeds infused olive oil
Light Purple - Blueberry fibers with some dried lavender petals on top

Oh I really don't intend to include artificial cosmetic colors :-)

Soaps -
100% olive oil facial soap - for olive oil makes the most gentle soap and how can we compromise with something that goes on the face :P

Layered round soap - made in paper cups. Green color comes from food grade chlorophyll and the pink comes from lip safe merlot mica. And the cream colored ones have marigold petals :-)

Now you know I haven't been a slug after all :-)

  2. Hi Sindhura,

    Thanks for stopping by. I usually add 1/4th cup of milk power to my usual bath bomb recipe. You can play around and see what works best for you. Don't add too much though, that would make the bombs weak and brittle.
