I got around to doing some soapmaking last night, finally! :)

Made 1 batch of shampoo bars and 1 batch of soap bars.

Rosemary mint shampoo bars. I want to see if I like the hand feel of the smaller bars compared to the donut size.

Made some larger size ones too.

I'll clean them up later once they've cooled and set. I let it go to trace a little too thick because I didn't have the molds set up proper before hand and panicked a bit haha

Almost castile soap bars (olive oil, castor oil) i added in some red mica soap coloring.

As well, Thought I'd share a small update on the shampoo bars themselves,

This is what's currently left of the first batch i made, I quite like it so far and am at this time planning to fully switch permanently. Switching again to bar was a bit weird cause most other shampoo bars have really dried out my hair Within a fairly short time.

This so far hasn't done that. There's still that weird feel between wet to dry, but once dry, hairs nice and soft. Not to snarly and is managable.

I did stop using the conditioner bar, it is nice on occasion but not quite manageable with my hair type. Made my hair brush very very linty and my hair more snarled the day after even with rebrushing and braiding the night before. I did find i liked the conditioner bar a lot for dry cracked winter skin so I suppose that's a win and a future gift idea.

Bonus, I've been able to work on some quilt repair the last couple weeks.

i like to use blue thread and scraps to repair quilts.

Its been a bit challenging doing this by machine, but it has gone by a lot faster than by hand. So for now, I'll keep rolling with it :) after this repair work is done i intend to start binding the next quilt I'm working on.

Thanks for stopping by!

Rowse Beauty Founder, Nuria Val on Hair

Q - Let’s talk about hair. How often do you wash it?

Nuria - Since I’m using ROWSE's solid shampoo I feel my hair is more healthy and I don't need to wash it every day anymore, I usually do it every 2-3 days. Having very thin hair, I thought that I needed to wash it every single day, but now I’ve understood that I was feeding my hair with chemical products that created this need that I wasn't aware of.

Q - How do you take care of your skin and hair when you’re travelling?

Nuria - I help my skin with extra care, especially while I’m on the plane and my skin gets stressed and dehydrated. I always carry a plant-based oil to moisturize my face, hands and lips. Spraying some floral water to rehydrate the skin is really helpful too.
