Soap Naturally Recipes
4th International Soap Swap
Laura Obert-Thorn's Soap Recipe
Rosy Rocks by Laura Obert-Thorn
Rose Clay is the central ingredient of this spa-treatment soap. Gentle on the skin, yet detoxifying, the soap's shea butter, virgin coconut and olive oils moisturize while the clay deeply cleanses and draws toxins from the skin. The color reminds one of the Utah desert. The texture? Adobe and butter. Scent blend is light and uplifting. Lavender, rosewood, geranium, patchouli, rose-otto, blood-orange.
Ingredients [*]
- Cocoa butter
- Coconut oil (I used half virgin coconut oil, can use 1/3 babassu, 1/3 virgin, 1/3 regular 76 deg.)
- Olive oil
- Shea butter
- Distilled water
- Lye for a little more than 5% Superfat
- Rose clay [...]
- Jojoba oil for Superfat.
