Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb / 450 g goats milk soap
- 1 tbsp raw honey
- 25 drops vitamin E oil
- 12 drops lavender essential oil
- 10 drops lemon essential oil
- 2 tbsp purple jojoba beads (optional)
- high-proof alcohol
Instructions
- Cut the goat’s milk soap base into small cubes and place them into a microwave-safe jug.
- Melt the soap cubes in the microwave set on low in 30-second bursts and stir gently in-between until the soap is liquid. Melted soap can be quite hot, so be careful to avoid burns.
- Add the vitamin E oil, honey, and essential oils. Whisk until well combined.
- Place the silicone mould on a tray or cutting board.
- Spritz with alcohol and sprinkle the bottom with jojoba beads.
- Slowly pour the soap into the mould.
- Spray the top of each soap with alcohol to dissolve the bubbles. Sprinkle with additional jojoba beads.
- Place in the fridge for 30 minutes or until the soap feels hard to the touch.
- Once the soap is fully hardened, gently flex the mould to release the soap bars.
- Optionally, use a vegetable peeler or pairing knife to shave the soap and create beveled edges.
Notes
- Use a digital scale for accurate measurements.
- Melt soap in short bursts to prevent burning.
- Spritzing with alcohol eliminates bubbles.
