Ingredients Needed For DIY Natural Soap

I’ve taken some of the guess work out of the process here. I’ve linked the products I used to make these gorgeous soap bars below. Most of the ingredients are inexpensive and easy to get, you can order everything online and be making soap by the weekend…or at least that’s what I was doing…maybe you have a more exciting life than I do.

Make your soap on whatever day works for you, it doesn’t have to be during those prime time fun hours of the weekend. 🙂

Supplies: 
½ pound natural glycerin soap base
¼ cup cream or goats milk
1/3 cup honey
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1/3 cup oats, ground, reserve 1-2 tablespoons
1 teaspoon sweet almond oil
Spray bottle of rubbing alcohol
Soap Mold
