Soap making takes a long time. It would usually take 5 to 6 weeks to make soap. During my first mission this summer, my group made soap. Each of us made 2 bars of soap. One bar of soap was made from aloe and one was made from goat’s milk. We melted a bar of soap that was already made and put in additives. When it was ready we put the soap into molds to give it new shape. Then we put it in the freezer to make the soap harden faster. We left it until the next day. Then we wrapped the soap in paper and tied it with string for our presentation. Soap making is fun and interesting.
Here is a list of additives we used :
lavender oil
lemon grass
sweet orange oil
lavender leaves
grapefruit oil
oatmeal
cinnamon
