As with all my soaps, this is more than 50% olive oil. I always add coconut oil to harden the soap and help give it a bubbly lather. For the rest of this recipe, I used some sweet almond oil which helps to create a lasting lather, and some rice bran oil, both of which keeps the soap mild and conditioning. And I added some avocado oil, a skin loving oil, as mild and conditioning as olive oil.
The bottom layer is colored with red oxide, the middle line is created with red clay.
This soap was made, like all my soaps, using the cold process method. I used lye, just like grandma used to. But make no mistake, this is no harsh soap to only use for laundry! No siree! My soaps are MORE than mild enough to use on face and body!
Each bar is a hefty 5oz.
The edges of the bars are currently unbeveled, but if you would like them beveled, just drop a note in the customer comments when ordering.
If you are interested in more than 1 bar, check out my listings for multiple bars, or just convo me. :)
