I’ve been thinking about making soapย for a while, as I have quite sensitive skin. Even better now, you can buyย melt and pour soap thatย is SLS free, which is a a nasty harsh ingredient, thatย is put in most cleaning agentsย and evenย bars of soap. I bought mine from Just a Soap, I already had some essential oils I could use.
I cut up the soap base into smallish pieces………

and gradually melted it in the microwave at 30 second intervals and kept stirring it.

Then when it had melted I added my essential oil and citrus peel I was using. I used vetiver with orange zest and rosemary oil with lemon zest.

I used a large serving spoon to put it into the molds.

When it is set you can pop it out of the mold and voila, you have soap!

Because I’m me, I made pretty wrapping for some of them ๐

……….and yes, I am going to make more!
