New Batches of Soap




I made 3 small batches of soap this week, which should be available in my Etsy store in a few weeks. One batch of real castile soap, (first try), made from 100% olive oil, one batch of lemongrass, dandelion root shaving soap and one of prickly pear, tea tree oil shaving soap. Unfortunately the prickly pear soap ended up looking a little rough as I did not tap the molds enough to prevent air bubbles from forming. It is still useable, but just a bit more "rustic" looking. I am looking forward to trying out the castile soap, as it is a basic, but extremely mild soap, that can even be used as a baby soap. Since I break out from just looking at the wrong product, I will be the perfect person to test this one, to find out how mild it really is. If I don't break out, the majority of the world's population shouldn't either! I will let you know if I am one giant walking rash or not, in a few weeks. Needless to say, should I end up red and itchy, this soap will not go up for sale!
