Sometimes you just have a day so draining and so busy, you decide to do something that makes you feel much better. By better I mean making CP soap:)
I've been infusing chamomile and alkanet root (separately) in olive oil for a month now and I was awaiting for an occasion to make some soap.
Having finished reports cards, parent-teacher interviews, more meetings and events that take time and effort- I say, "I'm gonna make me some soap!" Not just any soap, I'm making purple soap!
So I measured my oils, infused oils and decided that for this soap, there would be no colourants.
After mixing the infused alkanet oil, I noticed that the colour was more "red" tone. Which made me think, "hmm... ok, we can make this work...". I thought a sunset theme might work.
Holding my breath, I mixed the Goat's milk + lye mixture...Lo and behold! It turned purple instantaneously! OH YEAH!
Then for additive, I mixed in some ground oatmeal.
TIP! I read somewhere that if you mixed oatmeal with your fragrance it should last longer. So far, so good!
