Nancy Dozier's Soap Recipe
Bon Aqua Blues Soap by Nancy Dozier
From this pocket of our cosmos comes a soap that reflects the old mineral spa that was popular in the late 30s-early 40s. Bon Aqua Spa was known world-wide and frequented by many of the upper-class, the old-timers around here say. A part of the old hotel still stands on the hill above the spring that fed the spa. Many people of the county I live in still come to fill their water jugs from the spring.
The water I used in my soap is filtered water from the spring. The blue comes from a derivative of indigo. It is from El Salvador, South America.
