Recipe For Oatmeal Bar Soap

Make your own soap with oatmeal to exfoliate your skin.


Instead of purchasing soap, you can make your own at home. Making soap at home can be both enjoyable and easy. The addition of oatmeal in soap helps to relieve itchy and dry skin. Once you make your own oatmeal soap bars, you can give them away as gifts, or you can sell them at a craft fair. You can customize the soaps by adding different fragrance oils to them.


Instructions


1. Cut the melt and pour soap base into small 1/2- to 1-inch size cubes.


2. Place the soap cubes into a microwave-safe container. Heat the soap for two minutes and stir it with a wooden spoon.


3. Heat the melt and pour soap for 30-second intervals. Stir the soap each time until it completely melts.


4. Pour the honey into a microwave safe container. Heat it slightly in the microwave. Pour the honey into the melted soap and stir to mix them together.


5. Add 1 ounce of your preferred scent of fragrance oil.


6. Stir in the oatmeal. Stir the oatmeal until it suspends in the soap instead of sinking.


7. Pour the soap into a bar soap mold.


8. Spray the top of the soap with rubbing alcohol to prevent bubbles from forming. Allow the soap to harden overnight.


9. Remove the soap from the mold. Cut the block into soap bars if necessary. Allow the soap to cure for three to four days before using it.
