Cold Process Method - Artistic Soap

I always believed that CP soapmaking was a lot more difficult and time consuming than the basic M&P method.   Though lately I've been experimenting with several CP recipes, and I seem to be getting the hang of it.   
Looking at You tube videos has given me more confidence somewhat to work with various colours in particular mica pigments !  

I still need to get to grips with the proper swirling techniques, as there is a myriad of many different kinds of swirls to create in soap!!

What do you think of this one?!!

Lime swirl technique soap!!

Generally, CP soaps contains less chemicals than M&P ones with the exception of sodium hydroxide.  For the above soap I used olive oil, sustainable palm oil, coconut oil, shea butter, lye solution (basically a mixture of water and sodium hydroxide) & lime essential oil, and three different mica pigments.
