Happy Earth Day Inspo Soap!
Happy Earth Day! In celebration of Earth Day, I am posting a new soap I made with sea glass-inspired embeds. They had nowhere to go but when @brambleberry released the Sea Glass fragrance it was the perfect inspo to make this. I photographed it to look like it was underwater. I am enamored with how it came out. I wanted an under-the-sea vibe that was also a bit gritty and raw, just like nature with some abstract flair. A little pink and purple iridescence mimics the look of a jellyfish.
I asked my husband who is an encyclopedia of info for earth day facts and what I got was “Did you know that 100% of the earth’s oceans contain water?”. He either has an in-depth response or a Dad joke. 😐
Here’s a real fact about how seagrass is made from Wikipedia:
Sea glass begins as normal shards of broken glass that are then persistently tumbled and ground until the sharp edges are smoothed and rounded. In this process, the glass loses its slick surface but gains a frosted appearance over many years.
Naturally produced sea glass ("genuine sea glass") originates as pieces of glass from broken bottles, broken tableware, or even shipwrecks, which are rolled and tumbled in the ocean for years until all of their edges are rounded off, and the slickness of the glass has been worn to a frosted appearance.
So there you go, now you know how it’s made.
This soap is made with 100% coconut oil meaning it is going to suds and foam like crazy. The embeds representing sea glass are glycerin. Scented with a fresh ocean and salt fragrance by Bramble Berry as part of their Salt of the Earth collection.
