chamomile bergamot soap - handmade cold process

From HeatherAnnMroz

chamomile bergamot soap - handmade cold process
chamomile bergamot soap - handmade cold process chamomile bergamot soap - handmade cold process
All of my soaps are handmade from scratch - never melt and pour or from a pre-made base. I create my own recipes based on the properties of the fatty acids in different oils, carefully balancing them out to create the ideal bar of soap. I melt the oils in small batches and combine them with lye and water using the old fashioned, cold process method. Bars are then hand-cut and cured for about 6 weeks to insure that all of the lye is saponified, guaranteeing that they will be mild on your skin. I also superfat my soap - meaning I add a little more oil than necessary to condition your skin.

Chamomile bergamot is a classic herbal fragrance with a hint of orange citrus. The bar is a creamy, pale yellow color with ground chamomile flowers embedded throughout and whole chamomile flowers pressed in to the top while the soap is still soft.

*This listing is for one approximately 3.5 ounce bar packaged in a brown cardboard box with a colored label listing the ingredients and proudly proclaiming that it's Made in the UP! You will not get this exact bar of soap, but you will get one from this same batch :)

*Remember your soap will stay harder and last longer if you can store it in a soap dish that holds it out of standing water
