I have been playing with vegetables and fruits in my soap and I am really loving how much of a vitamin punch it gives the soap. The next batch I'm making will be with carrots and perhaps goat milk or buttermilk. Haven't decided. I am going to make it a facial bar so I am thinking white clay, a few extracts, chamomile, shea butter and rice bran oil. I'm not sure if I should scent it with an essential oil or just leave it pure. My feeling is leave it pure and unadulterated. I'd like to use carrot seed oil, but I don't have any on hand and it is quite pricey. Budgeting now... trying not to spend everything I have before the holidays.
There are so many fragrance and essential oils I want to try and there are so many I have that I don't use. I wish there was a room where everyone could put their unwanted oils and choose the oils they wanted from others and it wouldn't cost anything. We could just trade up.
Yeah, I'm a dreamer. But that would be nice, right?
