Naturally colored. Naturally scented. Lusciously delectable.
Just went to Michaels today because I had a gift card. I got soap colorants, essential oils, and a mold! (As well as a pretty couture designed box to store everything in, which was on sale).

I didn't use the colorants for this project, because the cinnamon creates the pink color.

Yield: 3, 2oz bars.
or 2, 3oz bars.
makes 6oz.

  • How to make soap. Luscious Soap - Step 1
    Step 1

    Take your soap bar and grate it (3/4 of a bar or about 3.5 oz of soap pieces).
    This works best when it has been sitting in water for a good amount of time.

    Put this into a good sized pot which has a little under 1/2 cup of water boiling in it.

    Take a smaller pan and add the cinnamon with 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil, then let steep off of heat for 10 minutes.

    ****This is a colorant. If you do not want the soap to be a pastel pink, you may omit this step all together.****
