If you’ve never made your own soap before, you would probably be surprised by how easy it can be. Adding essential oils to homemade soap is a wonderful way to infuse potent, natural fragrances. Not to mention, it allows you to experience any benefits the oils may hold for the skin. The step-by-step instructions for this DIY Soap are easy to follow, with an end product that smells lovely and you can personalise it to the issue you’re treating or the mood you’re trying to create.
For example, lavender and arborvitae for sleep and relaxation and peppermint and lemon for an invigorating morning wash!
It’s very important to use safe natural essential oils that are Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade.

A melt-and-pour soap base
Silicone soap moulds

This sounds fabulous Sarah, i normally make cards and gift boxes/bags, might have a go. But do people still buy soap these days? Would make wonderful gifts. x

Hi yes I think gifts would be lovely, soap bars might not be as popular in shops now, but natural products are on the rise so these should sell well. I’m going to do a Facebook live on it on Monday and a YouTube video about it if you think this is a good idea? Thanks x
