How I make Oatmeal Soap and Salt Soap

  
Oatmeal Soap:
1. Before starting sprinkle some whole rolled oats in your molds.

2.Blend 1 ounce of rolled oats into your blender. (You wont use it all) Have it close by as you make your soap.



3. Follow steps 1-3 here, using the goat milk base in step 1.


4. In step 4, I add 3 tablespoons of oatmeal, milk and honey fragrance oil.

5. Stir in about half your powdered oatmeal and stir. Keep stirring until it stays mostly suspended in the liquid.

6. Pour into your molds quickly because it sets up very fast once the oatmeal is in.

7. Then you can sprinkle a little more powdered oatmeal on the top if you'd like, and it hasn't started solidifying yet.

8. Spritz with alcohol to finish the soap and break up any bubbles on the top of the soap

9. Let sit for 3+ hours, then pop out of mold.






Salt Soap
1. Measure out 6-8 ounces of medium grain pink Himalayan sea salt.

Use the Shea base in step 1. 
I use 2 Tablespoons of apricot freesia fragrance oil in step 4.
3. Stir in the salt, and get it well coated in the soap liquid. The salt will sink to the bottom.

4.Take a tablespoon and scoop it back out of the mix and pour a layer into your molds.Probably about 2 tablespoons,or enough salt to cover the bottom of your mold.
You will have to work fairly quickly to get smooth soap, because it will start to thicken up on you.
 5. After you  have an even coat of salt in each mold, pour the melted soap over the salt.


6. Spray with rubbing alcohol to disperse bubbles.
