Kia ora
 
 I have been marbelling paper for labels but trying to choose ones with not so 
strong colour on them as the strong colours can be hard to read, sounds like 
you got one of the strong colours Ross...might have to save those ones for 
giveaways..

Mandy's Soap
Cinnamon and Orange
 
A small but fairly thick rough cut bar.
 
Packaging
Again, secure and can see the soap. Label gave good information but was a 
little difficult to read.  I love the warning for sensitive skin.  I also love 
the properties listed next to each of the oils.  Resealable!
 
Pre Shower Impressions
Packaging was easy to open and resealable.  The soap was fairly hard and waxy 
with a slight oily feel but still dry.
The colouring was uneven giving a marbled effect.  Not sure if this was 
deliberate or not but it is quite nice.
The cinnamon was very strong and I get a faint orangey note.  I think the 
paprika may have influenced the scent a little as well.  Overall smells spicy.
Moderate hardness when cut.
 
In The Shower
I thought there was going to be some colour bleeding but none!
I was initially a bit disappointed in the lather but once the soap got going it 
was really, really good stable fluffy lather.
I thought the scent might have been overpowering in the shower but it was 
actually quite a nice level.  Some vanilla would have taken the edge off the 
cinnamon a bit (IMO).  No irritation from the cinnamon but then my skin is very 
tolerant.  The scent lingered very slightly on my skin afterwards.
A moderately hard bar.
My skin felt great after using this soap
 
Overall Impressions
This soap performed really well and was interesting all round.  I liked the 
colour and the feel of it.  The scent was a little raw for me but actually 
really invigorating in the shower.  I really liked it and it had personality
