Lavender Peppermint Shea Butter Soap



I took a small hiatus from soap making, but had run out of some ingredients. Part of me said to wait for my supplies to arrive, but the other part yearned to get into my soap corner and make something. This soap, and the micas I chose begged to have a citrus scent, which I didn't have. So instead I used a combination of lavender & peppermint essential oils.

As much as I love lavender I am excited to do something different. This week I am making a new batch of shampoo bars, after lots of tweaking and help from testers I have found what works best, I am using a citrus essential oil blend for those.  I will update later this week with those, and some fun soaps for Valentine's Day!
