Besides smelling good, it helps improve the look and feel of your skin.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Exfoliate</b>. This pink salt scrub uses Himalayan salt to exfoliate your skin. By removing the top layer of skin, it makes your skin look brighter and feel smoother.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Moisturize</b>. Lock in moisture and embrace a healthy glow with each application of the rose petal salt scrub. The fractionated coconut oil penetrates deep to soften rough patches and rejuvenate dry skin, leaving you feeling pampered and refreshed.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Aromatherapy</b>. As you indulge in the rose petal salt scrub, experience a profound sense of relaxation and stress relief, transporting you to a state of blissful serenity.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Rose Salt Scrub Ingredients</h2><p><br /></p><p>Before we get into the crafting process, let's familiarize ourselves with the star ingredients that make this recipe a skincare sensation:</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Rose Petals</b>. Derived from the petals of the majestic rose flower, rose petals infuse our scrub with their enchanting aroma and potent skincare properties. Rich in antioxidants and vitamins, they help soothe and rejuvenate the skin, unveiling a youthful radiance. Only use <a href="https://tidd.ly/3OIS8C3" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">dried rose petals</a>; fresh rose petals can rot quickly.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Pink Himalayan Salt.</b> <a href="https://tidd.ly/3uD4p4f" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Pink Himalayan salt</a>, mined from ancient sea beds, is a mineral-rich salt that gently buffs away dead skin cells, promoting circulation and revealing a velvety-smooth complexion.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Fractionated Coconut Oil.</b> Say goodbye to dry, parched skin with <a href="https://tidd.ly/48qFNcO" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">fractionated coconut oil</a>—a lightweight yet deeply moisturizing base. Packed with essential fatty acids, it replenishes the skin's moisture barrier, leaving it soft, supple, and oh-so-kissable.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Essential Oils</b>. I added some <a href="http://aspireiq.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=24&aff_id=1885&url=https://mountainroseherbs.com/rose-absolute" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">rose absolute</a>, but you can use other essential oils. Lavender essential oil works well with roses. You can also find the <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2022/02/best-substitute-for-rose-essential-oil.html">best substitute for rose essential oil</a> if you don't have rose essential oil.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd-VPbEhCeAwdnyEZ2S7ti-DAGDlMQf9MLBz-t6uXBXkSjgnKzXzgC6BVmHcE94iAnQOCIbbhkGcvtT1PObGT-Y6UD_OzG9xId4tTNFdRArVuUHSNBpwku_fzB7iapwGzsZaSWcxF9z1zNV94reSHTuliskLUzZFHd6szXG7L6xLB18zBBTnWEZyPj2oUT/s933/RosePetalScrub%20(7).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="933" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd-VPbEhCeAwdnyEZ2S7ti-DAGDlMQf9MLBz-t6uXBXkSjgnKzXzgC6BVmHcE94iAnQOCIbbhkGcvtT1PObGT-Y6UD_OzG9xId4tTNFdRArVuUHSNBpwku_fzB7iapwGzsZaSWcxF9z1zNV94reSHTuliskLUzZFHd6szXG7L6xLB18zBBTnWEZyPj2oUT/s16000/RosePetalScrub%20(7).jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How to Prepare Rose Petals to make a Rose Salt Scrub</h2><p><br /></p><p>You can use dried rose petals or dry your own from a bouquet of fresh flowers. Make sure the rose petals are fully dry to reduce the chances that the scrub will grow mold.</p><p><br /></p><p>Crush the rose petals to release their aromatic essence and create a textured base for our scrub. Use a <a href="https://amzn.to/3Pbi5L9" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">mortar and pestle</a> or simply crush them between your fingertips until they reach your desired consistency.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Optional Additions and Variations</h2><p><br /></p><p>This is a basic rose petal body scrub. You can also add some optional ingredients for more benefits.</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Add 1 teaspoon of <a href="https://amzn.to/48kJssH" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">raw honey</a>. Honey has vitamins to nourish your skin. It's also an emollient.</li><li><a href="https://www.shopboleks.com/product-page/pure-natural-vitamin-e" target="_blank">Vitamin E oil </a>is high in antioxidants for your skin. It helps reduce the signs of aging and combat damage from free radicals.</li><li>I like using pink Himalayan salt, but you can also use sugar or sea salt. Learn about <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2016/04/salt-scrub-vs-sugar-scrub-which-is.html">salt scrub vs sugar scrub.</a></li><li>I used fractionated coconut oil because it's a dry oil that soaks into your skin quickly.

Allow the exfoliating granules to slough away dead skin cells, revealing a luminous complexion beneath.</p></li><li><p>After massaging, allow the scrub to linger on your skin for a few minutes, allowing its nourishing ingredients to penetrate and revitalize. </p></li><li><p>Rinse well and pat your skin dry. </p></li></ol><div><br /></div><p style="text-align: left;">You can use this scrub on your hands, feet, or body.

You can use your favorite mold. I like to use a <a href="https://amzn.to/3Q47nWm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">rectangle mold</a> or this <a href="https://amzn.to/46FwpC0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">small loaf mold</a> for melt and pour soap.</li><li>You can use your choice of soap bases. I used a white soap base from <a href="https://www.shopboleks.com/product-page/glycerin-opaque-white-soap-base" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Crafty Bubbles</a>. You can also find goat's milk soap base or shea butter soap base at <a href="https://Naturesoil.com?ref=everythingpretty" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Nature's Oils.</a></li><li>Since I'm using my charcoal soap recipe for specific skin concerns, I used my favorite skin blend: <a href="https://bit.ly/3W9KUIA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Bumps and Boo Boos</a>. I also like the <a href="https://bit.ly/3Q8Uz0K" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Clear Skin blend</a> from Simply Earth. </li><li>You can also create your own skin care blend. Use my <a href="https://tidd.ly/3May4aD" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">essential oil blending worksheets</a> to create your own blends.</li><li>I did one pour to make my soap. You can also make layers or swirls with white soap for a fun effect.</li></ul><p></p><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqeNWvJJGJCq_WtYzd-DAKj0Ob4dDDBHtblxhMbujEarucBaFPWQhJM-bZZPA17DJLj5_B7K7xKkniCndYo-h6h7VnjF73X3p6G6Jn38nZ5i1LkSan-cuGNVWlnCJvjPPUe7D7vZwOfedZjw8Rs3kaaadrCvl1m91AroxQAy63S7mzHVgNm4g4UwEXZYZy/s700/charcoalmeldandpoursoap12.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="467" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqeNWvJJGJCq_WtYzd-DAKj0Ob4dDDBHtblxhMbujEarucBaFPWQhJM-bZZPA17DJLj5_B7K7xKkniCndYo-h6h7VnjF73X3p6G6Jn38nZ5i1LkSan-cuGNVWlnCJvjPPUe7D7vZwOfedZjw8Rs3kaaadrCvl1m91AroxQAy63S7mzHVgNm4g4UwEXZYZy/s16000/charcoalmeldandpoursoap12.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><div><br /></div><h2 style="text-align: left;">How to Make Charcoal Soap Without Lye</h2><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">You will need the following supplies to make this easy charcoal melt and pour soap recipe:</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Melt and Pour Soap Base:</b> I used a white soap base.

It retains the plant's beneficial properties while providing a longer shelf life. You can get aloe vera powder from <a href="http://aspireiq.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=24&aff_id=1885&url=https://mountainroseherbs.com/aloe-vera-leaf-powder" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mountain Rose Herbs</a>, <a href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=140557&u=818856&m=19017&urllink=https%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Estarwest%2Dbotanicals%2Ecom%2Fproduct%2Faloe%2Dvera%2Dpowder%2Dorganic%2F&afftrack=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Starwest Botanicals</a>, or <a href="https://amzn.to/3QC1kdm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Amazon</a>.</li><li><b>Carrier Oils</b>: Essential for diluting Aloe Vera powder and carrying its healing compounds deep into the skin. Common carrier oils include jojoba, almond, coconut, and olive oil, each with unique nourishing qualities. </li><li><b>Beeswax</b>: This natural substance acts as a binding agent, giving the salve its thick consistency and sealing in the active ingredients for extended effectiveness.</li><li><b>Essential Oils</b>: These highly concentrated plant extracts add therapeutic scents and enhance the healing benefits of the Aloe Vera Salve. Lavender, tea tree, and chamomile are popular choices.</li></ul><p></p><div><br /></div><h2 style="text-align: left;">Selecting Carrier Oils for Your Salve</h2><p><br /></p><p>Choosing the right carrier oils is crucial as they can significantly impact the overall quality of your Aloe Vera Salve. Each carrier oil has distinct properties, ranging from fast absorption to deep moisturization.</p><p><br /></p><p> Blending multiple carrier oils can maximize their benefits, providing the best results for your specific skincare needs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Since this aloe salve recipe is used to promote healing for dry or irritated skin, I recommend using a heavier oil with more skin benefits.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here are the oils that I recommend:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Avocado oil</li><li>Argan oil</li><li>Chia seed oil</li><li>Rosehip seed oil</li><li>Hemp seed oil</li><li>Safflower oil</li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><p>You can learn more about <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2015/03/list-of-carrier-oils-and-their-benefits.html">carrier oils and their benefits</a> to choose the best one.</p><p><br /></p><p>I buy my oils from <a href="https://www.shopboleks.com/natural-oils" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Crafty Bubbles</a>, <a href="http://aspireiq.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=24&aff_id=1885&url=https://mountainroseherbs.com/catalog/ingredients/carrier-oils" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mountain Rose Herbs</a>, or <a href="https://tidd.ly/449SVkB" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HB Oils.</a></p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhi_F1VTVgDpiPeZSoDdyMWleaMSlhCQLqZryGRuCc0WgeRKiwZiOb-rkFtzoRzSohalqrm9dhYBw4PrT4o1-kfVQAxCKsasAsHoJxcn5LZguM2vg98_1wbFb7uwLofLEBJM2lDbovrWpjBYWOLwkETyT0Jgit4W_de5KeXpekpot8NTnlOP87moJ0nuqSj/s700/aloesalve10.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="467" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhi_F1VTVgDpiPeZSoDdyMWleaMSlhCQLqZryGRuCc0WgeRKiwZiOb-rkFtzoRzSohalqrm9dhYBw4PrT4o1-kfVQAxCKsasAsHoJxcn5LZguM2vg98_1wbFb7uwLofLEBJM2lDbovrWpjBYWOLwkETyT0Jgit4W_de5KeXpekpot8NTnlOP87moJ0nuqSj/s16000/aloesalve10.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Using Beeswax as a Binding Agent</h2><p><br /></p><p>Beeswax is a natural wonder in the world of skincare products.

After you melt your ingredients, you can take a small amount of the mixture and place on a spoon. Let cool for a minute and test the consistency. Add more oil or beeswax as needed.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Storing and Preserving Your Aloe Vera Salve</h2><p><br /></p><p>Opt for <a href="https://tidd.ly/3KCl38Y" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">dark glass jars</a> or <a href="https://tidd.ly/3KCl38Y" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">metal tins</a> to protect the salve from exposure to light and air, which can lead to the degradation of its active ingredients.</p><p><br /></p><p>You can also pour it into <a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=6220&awinaffid=293543&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.etsy.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dpaper%2520tubes%26ref%3Dsearch_bar" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">paper tubes</a> for easier application.</p><p><br /></p><p>Store your Aloe Vera Salve in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Personally, I like using castor oil in a blend for a hot oil treatment or in a hair mask.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have thick curly hair that tends to get dry, and castor oil helps make my hair soft and shiny again.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Understanding the Composition of Castor Oil</h2><p><br /></p><p>Castor oil is derived from the seeds of the castor plant (Ricinus communis) through a process called cold-pressing. This method ensures that the oil retains its valuable nutrients and properties. </p><p><br /></p><p>Castor oil is rich in triglycerides, specifically ricinoleic acid, which is responsible for many of its therapeutic benefits. </p><p><br /></p><p>Additionally, it contains essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals that nourish and strengthen the hair follicles, promoting healthy growth and overall hair health.</p><p><br /></p><p>In addition to castor oil hair benefits, you can also use this natural oil on your skin. Learn more about the <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2023/07/skin-benefits-of-castor-oil.html">skin benefits of castor oil.</a></p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Rich in Essential Fatty Acids</h3><p><br /></p><p>One of the key reasons why castor oil is so beneficial for hair is its high concentration of essential fatty acids. These include omega-6 fatty acids, such as linoleic acid, and omega-9 fatty acids, such as oleic acid. These fatty acids provide deep nourishment to the hair follicles and help to strengthen the hair shaft, preventing breakage and promoting healthy growth.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Packed with Vitamins and Minerals</h3><p><br /></p><p>In addition to essential fatty acids, castor oil is also packed with vitamins and minerals that are essential for hair health. It is a rich source of vitamin E, which is known for its antioxidant properties and its ability to repair and protect hair from damage caused by free radicals. </p><p><br /></p><p>Castor oil also contains minerals like magnesium, calcium, and zinc, which play a vital role in maintaining the overall health of the hair and scalp.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">High Protein Content for Stronger Hair</h3><p><br /></p><p>Protein is a building block for healthy hair, and castor oil is a natural source of this essential nutrient. The high protein content in castor oil helps to strengthen the hair strands, making them less prone to breakage and damage. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is particularly beneficial for individuals with weak or brittle hair, as it can help restore strength and vitality to their locks.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixDjOBy0p_m-MZ4FaIRT0vwNv8IuSL_vdAn9pYnLE0zRkjdRUSD4sJYrOVCNIO3_aq-np4l52Cku6GV8WFPv3XneMkOGw7P52N-jNNQiRUsNI0Nr-RVQBPw-UH07lYsq7ueP9W8UJpR6XjGBcBLHOqtL2UH9GggurHvZw3ZoYGFBSSG10vI05ZlexCGVTs/s700/casteroilforhair%20(3).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixDjOBy0p_m-MZ4FaIRT0vwNv8IuSL_vdAn9pYnLE0zRkjdRUSD4sJYrOVCNIO3_aq-np4l52Cku6GV8WFPv3XneMkOGw7P52N-jNNQiRUsNI0Nr-RVQBPw-UH07lYsq7ueP9W8UJpR6XjGBcBLHOqtL2UH9GggurHvZw3ZoYGFBSSG10vI05ZlexCGVTs/s16000/casteroilforhair%20(3).jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Castor Oil for Hair Growth</h2><p><br /></p><p>Many people use castor oil for hair to encourage hair growth. Although castor oil isn't a miracle product, it can help support healthy hair growth in the following ways.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Stimulating Hair Follicles with Castor Oil</h3><p><br /></p><p>If you're looking to enhance hair growth, castor oil is a must-have in your hair care routine. The ricinoleic acid present in castor oil has been shown to stimulate blood circulation to the scalp, which in turn promotes better nutrient delivery to the hair follicles. </p><p><br /></p><p>This increased blood flow nourishes the follicles, encourages healthy growth, and can even help revive dormant hair follicles, leading to regrowth in areas of thinning or balding.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Increasing Blood Circulation to the Scalp</h3><p><br /></p><p>Improved blood circulation is crucial for optimal hair growth, and castor oil can help achieve this. When massaged into the scalp, castor oil increases blood flow, ensuring that the hair follicles receive an abundant supply of nutrients and oxygen. This revitalizes the follicles, promoting healthier and faster hair growth.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Boosting Keratin Production for Thicker Hair</h3><p><br /></p><p>Keratin is a protein that forms the structural foundation of the hair strands. Castor oil has the unique ability to penetrate the hair shaft and nourish it from within. By supplying the hair with essential nutrients and proteins, castor oil promotes the production of keratin, resulting in stronger, thicker, and more resilient hair.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbnj6zvxSPVc-KtDmucNtZ0QNsxHDZMA7Cq2yhZM18wcn5k_2i0L5NTImOnrepXPqjafOIn3Fc7pyXRK8LaKAoezEDVmyhzOaMA6RaeunaFe0OiXzhKU1Ro92UYyrNOEriJLcFLoTyO-6hZ_n5CCMkSQYugdaMWdj_C-s7x0BA5H9B088GgjsT-oIKIXe5/s700/casteroilforhair%20(4).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbnj6zvxSPVc-KtDmucNtZ0QNsxHDZMA7Cq2yhZM18wcn5k_2i0L5NTImOnrepXPqjafOIn3Fc7pyXRK8LaKAoezEDVmyhzOaMA6RaeunaFe0OiXzhKU1Ro92UYyrNOEriJLcFLoTyO-6hZ_n5CCMkSQYugdaMWdj_C-s7x0BA5H9B088GgjsT-oIKIXe5/s16000/casteroilforhair%20(4).jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Preventing Hair Loss</h2><p><br /></p><p>In addition to promoting hair growth, castor oil for hair may help prevent hair loss.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Nourishing the Scalp with Castor Oil</h3><p><br /></p><p>A healthy scalp is essential for preventing hair loss, and castor oil excels in this area. Its moisturizing and nourishing properties help to keep the scalp hydrated and free from dryness, which can contribute to hair loss. </p><p><br /></p><p>By providing the scalp with the necessary nutrients and hydration, castor oil supports a healthy environment for hair growth and reduces the risk of excessive shedding.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Strengthening Hair Roots and Shaft</h3><p><br /></p><p>Weak hair roots and a fragile hair shaft can lead to increased hair loss. Castor oil strengthens the hair from the roots to the tips, reducing the chances of breakage and hair fall. </p><p><br /></p><p>Regular use of castor oil can fortify the hair follicles, making them less susceptible to damage and helping to maintain a fuller head of hair.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Combating Scalp Infections and Inflammation</h3><p><br /></p><p>Scalp infections and inflammation can contribute to hair loss and hinder healthy hair growth. The antibacterial and antifungal properties of castor oil make it effective in combating these issues. It helps to cleanse the scalp, removing impurities and bacteria that can cause infections. </p><p><br /></p><p>Additionally, castor oil soothes inflammation and calms irritation, creating a favorable environment for hair to grow and thrive.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">More Castor Oil Hair Benefits</h2><p><br /></p><p>In addition to hair growth and preventing hair loss, this oil also helps make hair more manageable. It can make hair softer and works well for most hair types.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Deep Conditioning Properties of Castor Oil</h3><p><br /></p><p>One of the standout qualities of castor oil is its deep conditioning properties. It penetrates deep into the hair shaft, moisturizing and nourishing each strand from within. This helps to improve the overall health and appearance of the hair, making it softer, smoother, and more manageable.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Locking in Moisture and Preventing Dryness</h3><p><br /></p><p>Dry hair is prone to damage and breakage. Castor oil acts as a natural emollient, sealing moisture into the hair and preventing dryness. </p><p><br /></p><p>It forms a protective barrier on the hair strands, locking in hydration and reducing the risk of moisture loss. This makes the hair more resilient and less susceptible to environmental stressors.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Restoring Natural Shine and Luster</h3><p><br /></p><p>Dull, lackluster hair can be transformed with the help of castor oil. Its nourishing properties enhance the natural shine and luster of the hair, giving it a healthy and vibrant appearance. Regular use of castor oil can revive even the dullest of hair, adding a beautiful sheen and radiance that catches the eye.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Treating Dandruff and Flaky Scalp</h3><p><br /></p><p>Dandruff can be embarrassing and difficult to manage. Applying castor oil to the scalp helps to moisturize and nourish the skin, reducing dryness and flakiness. Its antifungal properties target the underlying cause of dandruff, providing long-lasting relief and preventing its recurrence.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Sealing Split Ends and Preventing Further Damage</h3><p><br /></p><p>Split ends can travel up the hair shaft, leading to more breakage and damage. Castor oil's thick and viscous consistency makes it an excellent sealant for split ends. </p><p><br /></p><p>By applying a small amount of castor oil to the ends of the hair, you can help to seal the split ends, preventing them from spreading and causing more damage.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgepkazSVZqIgpyHSwlXZLnJFjpFdT6GCC-0w2_PrFFq_RSulIU81Jhwn6_J0yNH47YJ3237Vkdw5wKTqbwy6fFXbQyAm4YdhU3U23OaA9B44YCaVRl-_ah20C9uR2ZZPRc9PL7roYc_RyZIbTsVDjd3-diS1L8IDGIKgvkKvMTphBG37TS-HYu2F-FSYRk/s700/casteroilforhair.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgepkazSVZqIgpyHSwlXZLnJFjpFdT6GCC-0w2_PrFFq_RSulIU81Jhwn6_J0yNH47YJ3237Vkdw5wKTqbwy6fFXbQyAm4YdhU3U23OaA9B44YCaVRl-_ah20C9uR2ZZPRc9PL7roYc_RyZIbTsVDjd3-diS1L8IDGIKgvkKvMTphBG37TS-HYu2F-FSYRk/s16000/casteroilforhair.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Choosing the Right Type of Castor Oil</h2><p><br /></p><p>When it comes to selecting castor oil for hair care, it's important to choose high-quality, cold-pressed, and organic options. Look for castor oil that is pure and free from additives or synthetic ingredients. This ensures that you are getting the full benefits of castor oil without any potential harmful effects.</p><p><br /></p><p>I recommend buying a high quality castor oil from <a href="http://aspireiq.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=24&aff_id=1885&url=https://mountainroseherbs.com/castor-oil" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mountain Rose Herbs</a>, <a href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=140557&u=818856&m=19017&urllink=https%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Estarwest%2Dbotanicals%2Ecom%2Fproduct%2Fcastor%2Doil%2Dvirgin%2Dorganic%2F&afftrack=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Starwest Botanicals</a>, or <a href="https://tidd.ly/3PPntoh" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HB Oils.</a></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How to Use Castor Oil on Hair</h2><p><br /></p><p>There are several ways to incorporate castor oil into your hair care routine. One common method is to apply castor oil directly to the scalp and massage it in using circular motions. </p><p><br /></p><p>This helps to stimulate blood circulation and distribute the oil evenly. </p><p><br /></p><p>Another approach is to mix castor oil with another carrier oil, such as <a href="https://tidd.ly/3K4jDE9" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">argan oil</a> or<a href="https://tidd.ly/3DhEXCf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> jojoba oil</a>, to create a hair mask. This allows for better absorption and provides additional nourishing benefits.</p><p><br /></p><p>You can also use castor oil in place of the carrier oil in DIY hair care recipes.

The primary fatty acid found in castor oil is ricinoleic acid, accounting for approximately 90% of its composition. </p><p><br /></p><p>Ricinoleic acid acts like a barrier on top of the skin to protect the skin. It also helps soothe dry skin and reduce roughness.</p><p><br /></p><p>Other fatty acids, such as oleic acid and linoleic acid, are also present in smaller amounts. These unique fatty acids contribute to the distinctive properties of castor oil that make it beneficial for the skin.</p><p><br /></p><p>These fatty acids are what makes the skin benefits of castor oil. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><h2 style="text-align: left;">Types of Castor Oil Available in the Market</h2><p><br /></p><p>There are two types of castor oil available: cold-pressed castor oil and Jamaican black castor oil. Cold-pressed castor oil is made with minimal heat, which retails more of the natural compounds and nutrients in the oil.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jamaican black castor oil is dark in color. It's made by roasting the castor beans before extracting the oil. This gives the oil a darker color and is often used in hair care products.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVLSNK9rXtN_TpCav398I_DnVv634iIfIpZmTlllhaq2r72PkfeLFUBAZWFKKn1rdAOT1ZmBnSqb_pqUb4FVnoElb_QMxgDVzYDccz51bHmAFQhkG0EVq-_wQdnBh17T0WQ-lNgCtOLtgWcDGLPliuMJ1eH-OLu3_uCH831vguj7MWtBhR206sHSMnqwRS/s1040/castoroilskinbenefitstall.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1040" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVLSNK9rXtN_TpCav398I_DnVv634iIfIpZmTlllhaq2r72PkfeLFUBAZWFKKn1rdAOT1ZmBnSqb_pqUb4FVnoElb_QMxgDVzYDccz51bHmAFQhkG0EVq-_wQdnBh17T0WQ-lNgCtOLtgWcDGLPliuMJ1eH-OLu3_uCH831vguj7MWtBhR206sHSMnqwRS/s16000/castoroilskinbenefitstall.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Castor Oil Benefits for Skin Health</h2><p><br /></p><p>These skin benefits of castor oil make it a wonderful carrier oil for DIY skin care recipes.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Moisturizing Properties of Castor Oil</h3><p><br /></p><p>One of the remarkable benefits of castor oil for the skin is its moisturizing properties. It acts as an emollient, forming a protective barrier on the skin's surface that helps to prevent water loss and keep the skin hydrated. </p><p><br /></p><p>This makes it especially beneficial for individuals with dry and dehydrated skin, as it helps to restore moisture and promote a smoother complexion.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">How Castor Oil Helps to Retain Moisture in the Skin</h3><p><br /></p><p>Castor oil's ability to retain moisture in the skin is attributed to its dense molecular structure and high viscosity. When applied topically, it creates a barrier that locks in moisture and prevents transepidermal water loss (TEWL). </p><p><br /></p><p>This makes castor oil an excellent natural alternative to commercial moisturizers, which often contain synthetic ingredients that can be harsh on the skin.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Anti-inflammatory Effects of Castor Oil</h3><p><br /></p><p>In addition to its moisturizing properties, castor oil possesses potent anti-inflammatory effects, making it beneficial for soothing irritated skin and reducing redness and inflammation. </p><p><br /></p><p>The ricinoleic acid found in castor oil has been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory properties, helping to calm various skin conditions.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Soothing Irritated Skin</h3><p><br /></p><p>Irritated skin can be caused by a variety of factors, such as environmental stressors, allergic reactions, or skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis. Applying castor oil to the affected areas can help alleviate discomfort and redness. </p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Reducing Redness and Inflammation</h3><p><br /></p><p>Redness and inflammation are common skin concerns that many individuals face. Whether it's due to acne breakouts, rosacea, or other inflammatory conditions, castor oil can help to minimize these issues. </p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Antimicrobial Properties of Castor Oil</h3><p><br /></p><p>Castor oil possesses antimicrobial properties, which means it has the ability to fight against bacteria, fungi, and viruses that may be present on the skin. This makes it a potential ally in the treatment of acne and other skin infections.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Potential Use in Treating Acne and Other Skin Infections</h3><p><br /></p><p>Acne is a common skin condition that affects many individuals, and the antimicrobial properties of castor oil make it a potential natural remedy for acne-prone skin. By inhibiting the growth of acne-causing bacteria, reducing inflammation, and keeping the skin moisturized, castor oil may help to prevent and manage acne breakouts.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Anti-aging Benefits of Castor Oil</h3><p><br /></p><p>In addition to its moisturizing and anti-inflammatory effects, castor oil offers anti-aging benefits for the skin. These benefits include stimulating collagen production and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Stimulating Collagen Production</h3><p><br /></p><p>Collagen is a protein that plays a crucial role in maintaining the skin's elasticity and firmness. As we age, collagen production naturally decreases, leading to the formation of wrinkles and sagging skin.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, castor oil can help stimulate collagen synthesis, thanks to its ricinoleic acid content. By promoting collagen production, castor oil can contribute to a more youthful and plump complexion.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Reducing the Appearance of Fine Lines and Wrinkles</h3><p><br /></p><p>Fine lines and wrinkles are a common concern for many individuals, and castor oil can be a valuable addition to an anti-aging skincare routine. </p><p><br /></p><p>Regular application of castor oil can help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, thanks to its moisturizing and collagen-stimulating properties. </p><p><br /></p><p>By keeping the skin hydrated and boosting elasticity, castor oil can contribute to smoother and more youthful-looking skin.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Castor Oil Benefits for Specific Skin Conditions</h3><p><br /></p><p>Castor oil's versatility extends beyond general skin health benefits. It can also be beneficial for specific skin conditions. Let's explore how castor oil can help with acne-prone skin, sensitive skin, hyperpigmentation, scars and stretch marks, as well as sunburns.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Castor Oil for Acne-Prone Skin</h3><p><br /></p><p>Acne-prone skin requires special care, and castor oil can play a role in managing breakouts and promoting clearer skin.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Controlling Sebum Production</h3><p><br /></p><p>Excessive sebum production is a common factor contributing to acne development. Castor oil can help regulate sebum production, preventing the skin from becoming too oily. By maintaining a balance, castor oil reduces the likelihood of clogged pores and the formation of acne.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Preventing Clogged Pores</h3><p><br /></p><p>Clogged pores are a major concern for individuals with acne-prone skin. Castor oil's lightweight texture and ability to penetrate the skin deeply make it effective in unclogging pores. </p><p><br /></p><p>Regular use of castor oil can help remove impurities, excess sebum, and dead skin cells, reducing the occurrence of blackheads, whiteheads, and other types of acne.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Soothing and Calming Sensitive Skin</h3><p><br /></p><p>Sensitive skin often experiences redness, inflammation, and discomfort. Castor oil's anti-inflammatory properties help alleviate these symptoms, providing relief to sensitive skin. Regular application of castor oil can help maintain a balanced complexion and minimize sensitivity-related issues.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Evening Out Skin Tone</h3><p><br /></p><p>Uneven skin tone can be caused by various factors, such as sun damage, hormonal changes, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Castor oil contains antioxidants that help neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative stress on the skin. With regular use, castor oil can help even out the skin tone, giving it a more uniform and radiant appearance.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Promoting Skin Regeneration</h3><p><br /></p><p>Castor oil's ability to stimulate collagen and elastin production is particularly beneficial for promoting skin regeneration. When applied to scars or stretch marks, castor oil helps improve the skin's elasticity and texture, gradually reducing their visibility. Regular massage with castor oil can aid in breaking down scar tissue and enhancing skin renewal.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Minimizing the Appearance of Scars and Stretch Marks</h3><p><br /></p><p>While complete removal of scars and stretch marks is not guaranteed, castor oil can significantly minimize their appearance. With consistent use, castor oil improves the overall texture and tone of the affected areas, making scars and stretch marks less noticeable. Patience and regular application are key to achieving the desired results.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Providing Relief from Sunburned Skin</h3><p><br /></p><p>The cooling and moisturizing properties of castor oil make it an excellent natural remedy for soothing sunburned skin. </p><p><br /></p><p>When applied topically, castor oil helps alleviate the discomfort, redness, and inflammation associated with sunburns. Its emollient nature creates a protective barrier that allows the skin to heal more efficiently.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizkmMU6Wbn_zHl4pDg089Hd5lTykj5yzrH15aVsYfkKy0J6QVuMbuhu166f5TQiD8ABfaYSoMVmKlF__LnjSNoctOKilY4Y9ZwnEnt6RkoQKQbYSKxtVPPDBhALIzRjyb3gjMUe_SU73WpjB6er1qK7_C-Yyky0M1zB3JIEwo_svjOFcbyVSsSDgbIjEe4/s700/castoroilskinbenefits%20(3).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizkmMU6Wbn_zHl4pDg089Hd5lTykj5yzrH15aVsYfkKy0J6QVuMbuhu166f5TQiD8ABfaYSoMVmKlF__LnjSNoctOKilY4Y9ZwnEnt6RkoQKQbYSKxtVPPDBhALIzRjyb3gjMUe_SU73WpjB6er1qK7_C-Yyky0M1zB3JIEwo_svjOFcbyVSsSDgbIjEe4/s16000/castoroilskinbenefits%20(3).jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Methods of Application</h2><p><br /></p><p>There are various methods of applying castor oil to the skin, depending on personal preference and the desired outcome. With all of these castor oil benefits, you'll want to use it in several different recipes!</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Applying Castor Oil Directly on the Skin</h3><p><br /></p><p>Direct application involves using clean hands or a cotton ball to apply castor oil directly to the skin. Massage the oil gently in circular motions, ensuring even coverage. </p><p><br /></p><p>This method is suitable for targeted areas or smaller areas requiring attention, such as scars, stretch marks, or specific blemishes.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Blending with Carrier Oils or Other Skincare Products</h3><p><br /></p><p>To enhance the benefits of castor oil, you can blend it with carrier oils or incorporate it into other skincare products. Mixing castor oil with carrier oils like jojoba oil, almond oil, or coconut oil can create a customized skincare blend that addresses specific concerns. </p><p><br /></p><p>Additionally, you can add a few drops of castor oil to your moisturizer, serum, or face mask for added nourishment and hydration.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Potential Side Effects and Precautions</h2><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Allergic Reactions to Castor Oil</h3><p><br /></p><p>While castor oil is generally well-tolerated, allergic reactions can occur in some individuals. If you experience symptoms such as itching, redness, swelling, or a rash after applying castor oil, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Possible Skin Irritation and Redness</h3><p><br /></p><p>Although castor oil is considered safe for most skin types, it may cause mild irritation or redness in some individuals. If you have sensitive skin, it's advisable to perform a patch test and start with a lower concentration of castor oil. If any irritation occurs, dilute the oil or discontinue use.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Safety Considerations During Pregnancy and Breastfeeding</h3><p><br /></p><p>Pregnant and breastfeeding individuals should exercise caution when using castor oil topically. While there is limited research on the effects of castor oil during pregnancy, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional before using it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Castor oil should not be ingested during pregnancy, as it can act as a stimulant and potentially lead to complications.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYomBkaH3cWDdPTL9jdPWjkNcAeYhsI4LU5jo6RKhLj2o1YctOH6E33AjRqYj5Ge1D0Cl2HlKwTUsGet9Dtq1RnbhxpaRrepjaajvdye3u8QZ_O0fyRdenGZ-hOfvnxPAZPAcVMvSo5cWCfb9643TEpucVtW1JkF4fDYRLm4j5apJr9bNDWYcZ0U7W9AS1/s700/castoroilskinbenefits.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYomBkaH3cWDdPTL9jdPWjkNcAeYhsI4LU5jo6RKhLj2o1YctOH6E33AjRqYj5Ge1D0Cl2HlKwTUsGet9Dtq1RnbhxpaRrepjaajvdye3u8QZ_O0fyRdenGZ-hOfvnxPAZPAcVMvSo5cWCfb9643TEpucVtW1JkF4fDYRLm4j5apJr9bNDWYcZ0U7W9AS1/s16000/castoroilskinbenefits.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)</h2><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Can Castor Oil Be Used on All Skin Types?</h3><p><br /></p><p>Yes, castor oil is generally suitable for all skin types.

One popular option is Natrasorb, a versatile natural absorbent with excellent detoxifying properties.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">What is Natrasorb?</h2><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://bit.ly/3NX84Ro" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Natrasorb </a>is made from tapioca, but it's not the same as tapioca starch. It's a powder, but it absorbs large quantities of oils. </p><p><br /></p><p>It has small pockets that can hold a lot of oil, making it perfect for making a bath powder recipe. It also holds essential oils or fragrance oils to hold more scent than other powders.</p><p><br /></p><p>I highly recommend using Natrasorb to make rose bath powder, but you can also use <a href="https://tidd.ly/44dPIkM" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">arrowroot powder</a> or <a href="https://tidd.ly/3PJxHXg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">tapioca powder</a>.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYo20AkF-ZgSY24tRZkJ6Nx7focKB-NHC2fBNq_FdV4xXhgMM8nAcwYbmsD-LylrnF1nOhFDStaDBe3GRE49-tQdN2o8pzX63qMv9_97ILs1sUGXgtsOVi9g3E4D-TxpmCnu2M822mPeKtDso2ZaR9V1wURtwa_J_mYXvPXBoNlXyRFE6cFbfIBWRpZJ9o/s1050/bathpowderrecipe8.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1050" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYo20AkF-ZgSY24tRZkJ6Nx7focKB-NHC2fBNq_FdV4xXhgMM8nAcwYbmsD-LylrnF1nOhFDStaDBe3GRE49-tQdN2o8pzX63qMv9_97ILs1sUGXgtsOVi9g3E4D-TxpmCnu2M822mPeKtDso2ZaR9V1wURtwa_J_mYXvPXBoNlXyRFE6cFbfIBWRpZJ9o/s16000/bathpowderrecipe8.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Exploring the Various Herbs and Botanicals</h2><p><br /></p><p>I made rose bath powder with rose petals, but you can also use one of the following herbs:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Lavender</b>: Renowned for its relaxation and stress relief properties, <a href="https://bit.ly/3CGt4G3" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">lavender </a>adds a calming and soothing touch to your bath.</li><li><b>Chamomile</b>: Embrace tranquility with <a href="https://tidd.ly/43jDvtK" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">chamomile</a>, known for its calming effects and skin-soothing qualities.</li><li><b>Rose Petals</b>: Elevate your bath into a luxurious experience with the aromatic and moisturizing properties of <a href="https://bit.ly/3JK4I1o" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">rose petals</a>.</li><li><b>Eucalyptus</b>: Clear your airways and enjoy respiratory support with <a href="https://tidd.ly/3pD7grm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">eucalyptus</a>, perfect for refreshing baths.</li><li><b>Calendula</b>: Nourish your skin with the gentle and healing properties of <a href="https://tidd.ly/46Cbgcg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">calendula flowers.</a></li><li><b>Peppermint</b>: Revitalize your senses with invigorating <a href="https://tidd.ly/3riEAEQ" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">peppermint</a>, offering a refreshing and cooling effect.</li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Incorporating Essential Oils for Aromatherapy Benefits</h2><p><br /></p><p>Rose essential oil would be wonderful to make rose bath salts.

If you encounter clumps in your bath powder, simply break them apart with a fork or your fingers until the mixture is smooth and even. You can also pass the powder through a fine sieve to remove any remaining clumps.</li><li><b>Adjusting the Scent Strength to Personal Preference:</b> Everyone has different preferences, so don't hesitate to reduce the amount of essential oils in your bath powder to suit your liking. Do not use more than called for in the recipe. Use an <a href="https://tidd.ly/3PItAdL" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">essential oil dilution chart </a>to ensure that you use the correct amount.</li><li><b>Not Properly Drying Ingredients</b>: Ensure that your herbs, botanicals, and colorants are thoroughly dried before adding them to the bath powder mixture. Moisture can lead to clumps and reduce the shelf life of your creation.</li><li><b>Save Your Recipes.</b> Keep track of your favorite recipes with a <a href="https://tidd.ly/46wVLT5" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">printable essential oil journal.</a></li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How to Use Bath Powder</h2><p><br /></p><p>Now that you have your beautifully crafted bath powder, it's time to indulge in a spa-like bathing experience.

Learn more about <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2013/03/your-guide-to-melt-and-pour-additives.html">melt and pour soap additives</a>.</li><li>Quick results: Unlike other soap-making methods, melt and pour soap doesn't require weeks of curing time; you can start using your soap as soon as it solidifies.</li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><p>When selecting a melt and pour soap base for your cotton candy soap bars, consider factors such as:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Transparency: Decide whether you want a transparent or opaque soap base, depending on the final look you wish to achieve. Keep in mind that a clear soap base will give you vibrant colors. White soap base will be subdued.</li><li>Ingredients: Look for high-quality soap bases that are free from harsh chemicals and contain nourishing ingredients for the skin. </li><li>Melting point: Different soap bases have different melting points, so choose one that suits your melting method and desired consistency.</li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><p>I recommend using melt and pour soap from <a href="https://tidd.ly/44mWBjx" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HB Oils</a> or <a href="https://bit.ly/42CPTVI" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Simply Earth</a>.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqlmx1JoKbppVteLH5Tl-83XfXg_SV1bLD5C3B4scwT9i_70gB__J83a_hMg1ms6j6JvyDH_kvnEOs5dRxOR5HMakajAjBUKTgEbVCELIhxHjvXtwbYIGRysTtI9DRdB-XG1aAgdb4CNBfxTnnaLgw7IVyw1wvKcbGCQKWYbtMN7lCwpYAm0Jv1WAVRJVC/s700/cottoncandysoap8.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="467" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqlmx1JoKbppVteLH5Tl-83XfXg_SV1bLD5C3B4scwT9i_70gB__J83a_hMg1ms6j6JvyDH_kvnEOs5dRxOR5HMakajAjBUKTgEbVCELIhxHjvXtwbYIGRysTtI9DRdB-XG1aAgdb4CNBfxTnnaLgw7IVyw1wvKcbGCQKWYbtMN7lCwpYAm0Jv1WAVRJVC/s16000/cottoncandysoap8.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Cotton Candy Soap Ingredients and Supplies</h2><p><br /></p><p>To get started on your cotton candy soap-making journey, you'll need to gather the following ingredients and supplies:</p><p><br /></p><p>Ingredients:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Melt and pour soap base: Choose a high-quality base suitable for your desired texture and transparency. I used both white and clear soap.</li><li>Polysorbate 80: <a href="https://tidd.ly/3NN8r0O" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Polysorbate 80</a> is optional, but I like to add it to soap and bath bombs. It helps disperse the colorant and scent throughout the soap since it's an emulsifier.</li><li>Fragrance oils: Opt for fragrance oils that capture the essence of cotton candy, such as vanilla, strawberry, and sugary scents. <a href="https://Naturesoil.com?ref=everythingpretty" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Nature's Oils</a> has a natural cotton candy fragrance oil. Or try one of these <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2020/03/fun-essential-oil-blends-that-smell.html">essential oil blends that smell like candy.</a></li><li>Colorants: I like to use <a href="https://tidd.ly/3prCrpB" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">mica </a>to color my soap because it doesn't bleed like some liquid colorants. I used white, pink, and blue mica.</li><li>Skin safe glitter: I added pink and blue skin safe glitter for some extra sparkle. This is optional. I like to use a <a href="https://tidd.ly/3Nrq0C3" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">biodegradable glitter.</a></li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><p>Supplies:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Microwave or double boiler: Depending on your preferred melting method, ensure you have either a microwave-safe container or a double boiler setup.</li><li>Heat-resistant containers: Use separate <a href="https://amzn.to/441oHkj" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">heat-resistant containers</a> for melting the soap base and mixing in fragrance oils and colorants. I used three soap containers to make three colors.</li><li>Soap molds: Look for fun and whimsical soap molds or choose simple <a href="https://amzn.to/3PySjBu" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">rectangular molds</a> for classic bars. I used this <a href="https://amzn.to/3pmkecX" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">cute swirl mold</a>.</li><li>Mixing utensils: Have a dedicated set of heat-resistant utensils, such as silicone spatulas or stainless steel spoons, for stirring and mixing.</li><li><a href="https://tidd.ly/3qV1B06" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Spray bottle</a> of rubbing alcohol: This will help eliminate air bubbles that may form while pouring the soap.</li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsHv9vtLUSKaHNYl-t8sddfkyGM2BVjmbkRyi4LF1h7-yBTuZSZvNdgyzrckT5HtDtrG5Fp-_V7iymUyEBpJjqGhQHzwio8artCObZfPQ29AeYkfy4pq9r5d575IWtR4rYTcCy3W-l1eJG8JOg2yAiQ1pTCiuNxTVQWQ03nXk6wcskuIaQFaTX453NoKJI/s700/cottoncandysoap1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="467" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsHv9vtLUSKaHNYl-t8sddfkyGM2BVjmbkRyi4LF1h7-yBTuZSZvNdgyzrckT5HtDtrG5Fp-_V7iymUyEBpJjqGhQHzwio8artCObZfPQ29AeYkfy4pq9r5d575IWtR4rYTcCy3W-l1eJG8JOg2yAiQ1pTCiuNxTVQWQ03nXk6wcskuIaQFaTX453NoKJI/s16000/cottoncandysoap1.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Melting and Pouring the Soap Base</h2><p><br /></p><p>Now that your have the ingredients for your cotton candy soap, it's time to start melting and pouring the soap base.

If using the microwave, place the soap chunks in a microwave-safe container and heat in short bursts, stirring in between until completely melted. If using a double boiler, fill the lower pot with water and place it on the stove over low heat. Put the soap chunks in the upper pot and stir until melted. Melt each container separately because the soap will cool between layers. I started with the white soap first.</p><p><br /></p><p>Melt the white soap and add 1 teaspoon of Polysorbate 80, 1/3 of the fragrance oil or essential oils, and white mica. Stir well.

Invest in a <a href="https://amzn.to/44hZKku" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">digital scale</a> to weigh your ingredients precisely.</li><li>Experiment with layering: Create a visually appealing cotton candy soap by pouring different colors in layers.

Here are some <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2021/09/tips-for-layering-melt-and-pour-soap.html">tips for layering melt and pour soap</a>.</li><li>Avoid overheating: Be mindful of the soap base's melting point and avoid overheating, as it can affect the quality and appearance of your soap.</li><li>Addressing air bubbles: If you notice air bubbles in your poured soap, lightly spritz the surface with rubbing alcohol and use a toothpick to pop any remaining bubbles.</li><li>Troubleshooting discoloration: Some fragrance oils may cause discoloration in the soap.

I really like the <a href="https://simplyearth.com/products/succulent-essential-oil-diffuser?rfsn=2333287.8ad8cd&offer=Special Offer: Free $45 e-giftcard when you subscribe!&coupon=EVERYTHINGPRETTYFREE&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=1744687" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">succulent diffuser</a> from Simply Earth.</li><li>Reed diffusers use porous reeds to draw the oil upwards and disperse it into the surrounding air.

I have the <a href="https://bit.ly/42ImjOb" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">stone diffuser </a>from Simply Earth, and it's really pretty!</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Choosing the Right Passive Diffuser</h2><p><br /></p><p>When selecting a passive diffuser, there are a few factors to consider. Firstly, think about the size of the area you want to scent. For smaller spaces like bedrooms or bathrooms, a compact diffuser would be ideal, while larger rooms may require a diffuser with higher oil capacity.</p><p><br /></p><p>I use a clay diffuser in my bedroom to diffuse right before bed. I don't want to mess with filling a diffuser with water or making sure I shut it off before I go to bed, so it's perfect.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, for the bathroom or an office, I want a longer lasting scent. This is where I use a reed diffuser for a constant scent without having to add oils often.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxUqWpZjei4Wo0mAm3blezW19ywjaHyS6Hr13ojbHjQueS_-kRRQoBJP09FxGXqyakBgg6U5AWZX1UTpIaf8UGHWk4XCBkHHvA1eKRVWU2AN0m1xIan4ooCawndkbVQMDV0OjtL0IhCfURH1drxF55qfHmw-iZXRIykS-IisyZ0tg60lHQKGgc8NKu3g/s700/passivediffuser5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="467" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxUqWpZjei4Wo0mAm3blezW19ywjaHyS6Hr13ojbHjQueS_-kRRQoBJP09FxGXqyakBgg6U5AWZX1UTpIaf8UGHWk4XCBkHHvA1eKRVWU2AN0m1xIan4ooCawndkbVQMDV0OjtL0IhCfURH1drxF55qfHmw-iZXRIykS-IisyZ0tg60lHQKGgc8NKu3g/s16000/passivediffuser5.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Best Practices for Using an Essential Oil Passive Diffuser</h2><p><br /></p><p>To maximize the benefits of your essential oil passive diffuser, follow these best practices. First, consider the placement and positioning of your diffuser. </p><p><br /></p><p>For even distribution, place it in a central location with good air circulation. Avoid placing it near open windows or air vents that could disrupt the diffusion process.</p><p><br /></p><p>Even though passive diffusion doesn't reach as far as a water diffuser, you still need to be mindful of who will be in the room.</p><p><br /></p><p>Only use oils that are safe for any pets or children who will be near Also make sure to use oils safe for elderly or pregnant women if applicable. </p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Caring for Your Passive Diffuser</h2><p><br /></p><p>Proper care and maintenance ensure the longevity and effectiveness of your passive diffuser. Cleaning your diffuser regularly prevents the buildup of residue and allows for optimal diffusion.</p><p><br /></p><p>For clay diffusers, gently wipe the surface with a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or soaking the diffuser in water, as this can damage the clay. </p><p><br /></p><p>Reed diffusers require periodic maintenance. To clean the reeds, remove them from the bottle and rinse them with warm water. Let them air dry completely before reinserting them into the bottle. If the reeds become clogged or discolored, replace them with fresh ones for better diffusion.</p><p><br /></p><p>Troubleshooting common issues with passive diffusers can ensure their optimal performance. If the aroma becomes weak, try adding a few more drops of essential oil. If the diffuser is not emitting a scent, check the positioning and airflow around the diffuser to ensure proper circulation.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">DIY Passive Diffusers</h2><p><br /></p><p>The Simply Earth box contains supplies to make four different passive diffusers.

Its alkaline nature reacts with the citric acid, creating the fizzy reacti</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br />on that makes bath bombs so captivating.<p></p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Epsom Salt: Promoting Relaxation</h3><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/45i55tw" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Epsom salt</a>, scientifically known as magnesium sulfate, not only enhances the therapeutic effects of your bath but also aids in relaxation by soothing tired muscles. Its inclusion in your bath bomb recipe will elevate your bathing experience to new levels of tranquility.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Citric Acid: Creating the Fizzing Effect</h3><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3MwJ6rh" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Citric acid</a>, a naturally occurring acid found in citrus fruits, is the primary component responsible for the fizzing and bubbling spectacle. When combined with baking soda and water, it triggers the effervescent reaction that brings your bath bombs to life.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Cream of Tartar: Enhancing the Bubbles</h3><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://tidd.ly/3M2q0YE" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Cream of tartar</a>, a byproduct of winemaking, serves as a booster for the bubbles. Adding this ingredient to your bath bomb recipe helps create a more voluminous and long-lasting fizz.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">SLSA: Even More Bubbles</h3><p><br /></p><p>SLSA is what makes thick bubbles. It's a plant based surfactant that helps create lather in bath and body products. </p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Mica Powder: Color Your Bubbling Bath Bombs</h3><p><br /></p><p>I like to use <a href="https://tidd.ly/41Fwkew" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">mica powder</a> for a natural colorant. Start with a small amount, about 1/4 of a teaspoon, and add more as needed.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Carrier Oils: Moisturizing Your Skin</h3><p><br /></p><p>To ensure your bath bombs provide more than just visual and olfactory delights, consider incorporating carrier oils into your recipe. Almond oil, coconut oil, or jojoba oil are excellent choices, as they moisturize and nourish your skin, leaving it soft and supple.</p><p><br /></p><p>I like to get my carrier oils from <a href="https://tidd.ly/41PWqM0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HB Oils</a> or <a href="https://www.shopboleks.com/natural-oils" target="_blank">Crafty Bubbles</a>.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Witch Hazel: Binding and Spritzing Your Bath Bombs</h3><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://tidd.ly/42Z1ler" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Witch hazel</a>, a natural astringent derived from the witch hazel plant, plays a crucial role in binding the ingredients of your bath bombs together. Witch hazel can be used as a spritzing agent to add moisture to the mixture when necessary, aiding in the molding process.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Molds: Choosing the Perfect Shape for Your Bath Bombs</h3><p><br /></p><p>Selecting the right molds for your bath bombs allows you to unleash your creativity and personalize your creations. You can find a wide range of molds in various shapes and sizes, including spheres, hearts, stars, or even novelty shapes.

Preparing Your Workspace</h3><p><br /></p><p>Before you embark on your bath bomb-making journey, it's important to set up a clean and organized workspace. </p><p><br /></p><p>Gather all your ingredients, tools, and molds, ensuring everything is within reach. Lay down a protective covering, such as a plastic sheet or parchment paper, to make cleanup easier.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">2. Measuring and Mixing the Dry Ingredients</h3><p><br /></p><p>Start by measuring the dry ingredients: baking soda, citric acid, cream of tartar, and Epsom salt. Accurate measurements are crucial for a successful bath bomb. Combine these ingredients in a mixing bowl, using a whisk or your hands to ensure even distribution. I also add the mica with the dry ingredients.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjylBlRGZQe4bSrrh1_S90YIxf2SvGShIRcU8d0sI2jNkes46eYxw22vtMqEQc0gJGcVBuJXUgzKvajOZMO-6CZwWzEpX8C1-mc7Ap2wqlW5RBoQVmDBKDgAy49I44NWfZizywCxsP5NJSPCPBuNq2bpaetz7cnwFrVGgfaJprOcJgZgVHWV1mSRaHsFA/s700/bubblingbathbombs2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjylBlRGZQe4bSrrh1_S90YIxf2SvGShIRcU8d0sI2jNkes46eYxw22vtMqEQc0gJGcVBuJXUgzKvajOZMO-6CZwWzEpX8C1-mc7Ap2wqlW5RBoQVmDBKDgAy49I44NWfZizywCxsP5NJSPCPBuNq2bpaetz7cnwFrVGgfaJprOcJgZgVHWV1mSRaHsFA/s16000/bubblingbathbombs2.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">3. Combining the Wet Ingredients</h3><p><br /></p><p>In a separate container, combine the carrier oils and a few drops of your chosen essential oils. Mix them well to distribute the fragrance evenly. This mixture will act as the moisturizing and aromatic component of your bath bombs.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggKo5Mb0NotVdDBod8TcqYaJJmZvCNFGa-Fkh7Ps3FuzY2ZFWqbGqagnSyfuPGjg5kyHDvA3G1QE0UbyXNgXnvd1hx3Uml01Vgzv3_SBb5xzZCzX94ygrofGiQjVDvAgDsb7bVbuA_2DZyCHNcccRTp1fEtqG3rbVfFDk3WymW23CYrK1o_ZP0hvI3Mw/s700/bubblingbathbombs3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggKo5Mb0NotVdDBod8TcqYaJJmZvCNFGa-Fkh7Ps3FuzY2ZFWqbGqagnSyfuPGjg5kyHDvA3G1QE0UbyXNgXnvd1hx3Uml01Vgzv3_SBb5xzZCzX94ygrofGiQjVDvAgDsb7bVbuA_2DZyCHNcccRTp1fEtqG3rbVfFDk3WymW23CYrK1o_ZP0hvI3Mw/s16000/bubblingbathbombs3.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h3>4. Incorporating the Dry and Wet Mixtures</h3><h3><p><br style="font-size: medium; font-weight: 400;" /></p></h3><p>Pour the wet mixture slowly into the dry ingredients while continuously stirring. This step requires patience to avoid triggering the fizzing reaction prematurely.</p><p>Gradually incorporate the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, using your hands or a spoon. The mixture should start to clump together but still hold its shape when pressed. If the mixture feels too dry, spritz it lightly with witch hazel, one spritz at a time, until it reaches the desired consistency. Be careful not to oversaturate the mixture.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkZgj5lAf1y1qayeqYI2ul1NuxPQeVLyV84J93pfxw7_S-430bM8JJ80VEsLielif4rKr_RKJHigsHEfOg8Mc_t22KBoVkhM2-fK_60j1WEpyRyG9Fkh0AfkNgbLenUN4gd_hnYgKMGJfBr6TftAUu5eQglYwC1aWON24pcINsCuKmxXk85UZDM0oHPQ/s700/bubblingbathbombs4.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkZgj5lAf1y1qayeqYI2ul1NuxPQeVLyV84J93pfxw7_S-430bM8JJ80VEsLielif4rKr_RKJHigsHEfOg8Mc_t22KBoVkhM2-fK_60j1WEpyRyG9Fkh0AfkNgbLenUN4gd_hnYgKMGJfBr6TftAUu5eQglYwC1aWON24pcINsCuKmxXk85UZDM0oHPQ/s16000/bubblingbathbombs4.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">5. Testing the Consistency of Your Bath Bomb Mixture</h3><p><br /></p><p>Take a small amount of the mixture and squeeze it in your hand. If it holds its shape and feels compact, it's ready for molding. If it crumbles or falls apart, it may need a bit more moisture or compression.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">6. Packing the Mixture into the Molds</h3><p><br /></p><p>Fill each mold cavity with the mixture, pressing it down firmly to ensure it is tightly packed. Overfill slightly, then press the molds together firmly, removing any excess mixture. This will help create a solid and compact bath bomb.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjESP0Wu1DlUyI2qt69cwFuNWBAv1p3IHKtBOYOOqfHnLeMa53UqemzwufqHwf6T3mFbsMDt61XxWUOzqsCWwuBCss3hs30jvXzasuGwhG8Tpajj65F2UhZN7l3guSYSKEGfAQ4iLRruQt4sX3M_npG6aHYghZP1iNHOobrcizaYZvgDNwrD1N95QNc9Q/s700/bubblingbathbombs5.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjESP0Wu1DlUyI2qt69cwFuNWBAv1p3IHKtBOYOOqfHnLeMa53UqemzwufqHwf6T3mFbsMDt61XxWUOzqsCWwuBCss3hs30jvXzasuGwhG8Tpajj65F2UhZN7l3guSYSKEGfAQ4iLRruQt4sX3M_npG6aHYghZP1iNHOobrcizaYZvgDNwrD1N95QNc9Q/s16000/bubblingbathbombs5.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">7. Pressing and Releasing the Bath Bombs</h3><p><br /></p><p>Once the mixture is packed into the molds, gently tap the back of the molds to release any trapped air bubbles. Press the mixture down firmly once again to ensure it is tightly packed. Carefully remove the bath bombs from the molds and set them aside on a clean surface to dry.</p><p><br /></p><p>Proper drying is essential to maintain the structural integrity of your bath bombs. Place them in a cool, dry area with good airflow. Let them dry undisturbed for at least 24 to 48 hours, or until they are completely hardened. This waiting period ensures that your bath bombs will hold their shape and fizz beautifully when introduced to water.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Troubleshooting: Common Issues and Solutions</h2><p><br /></p><p>If you encounter any issues during the shaping or drying process, don't worry. Here are some common problems and their solutions:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Cracked bath bombs: Cracks can occur if the mixture is too dry. To remedy this, lightly spritz the mixture with witch hazel to add moisture.</li><li>Bath bombs expanding or losing shape: This can happen if the mixture is too wet. To fix this, add a small amount of additional dry ingredients to absorb excess moisture.</li><li>Bath bombs sticking to molds: If your bath bombs are stubbornly clinging to the molds, gently tap the sides of the molds or place them in the freezer for a few minutes to help release them.</li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>By understanding the science behind their fizzing and bubbling effects, selecting the right ingredients, and adding fragrances and colorants, you can craft your own spa-like oasis at home. </p><p><br /></p><p>Not ready to try making your own bubble bath bomb recipe?

I recommend buying a high quality melt and pour soap base. I don't recommend the bases available in most chain craft stores because they aren't high quality.</p><p><br /></p><p>I like to use <a href="https://amzn.to/44LBJDC" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Stephenson's soap base</a>, <a href="https://bit.ly/42CPTVI" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Simply Earth soap base</a>, or <a href="https://Naturesoil.com?ref=everythingpretty" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Nature's Oils bases</a>.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Green Tea Soap Benefits</h2><p><br /></p><p>Before delving into the world of Green Tea Melt and Pour Soap, it is essential to understand the benefits associated with green tea. </p><p><br /></p><p>Green tea is derived from the Camellia sinensis plant and is renowned for its rich antioxidant content. Antioxidants help protect the body against free radicals, which can damage cells and contribute to various health issues.</p><p><br /></p><p>Moreover, green tea contains compounds called catechins, which are known for their potential anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. </p><p><br /></p><p>These properties make green tea a valuable ingredient in skincare products, promoting a healthy complexion and fighting off common skin concerns.</p><p><br /></p><p>When used in soap, green tea can provide antioxidant protection to the skin, reducing the signs of aging and enhancing overall skin health. </p><p><br /></p><p>Its anti-inflammatory properties can soothe irritated skin, making it particularly beneficial for those with sensitive or acne-prone skin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Furthermore, green tea can help regulate sebum production, resulting in a balanced complexion. Its antibacterial properties can assist in fighting off acne-causing bacteria, making green tea a valuable addition to any skincare routine. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxkI1EvXbkFExh5h_8FFRUo-XerSD6EyIh0bihfE_u6YsJG5cKS3fqNbfIBV1PA1izJltkwAT5u3pIgVuRtzjqHwkDg4t_7AYUbMW3ECKzwW_23eyoxzmfQAt2UlJdr_zgUyle6G_GEXF4w-2hEZqBST5xXIdMxVaqDMLMq_2aWfdYftfA-RcWdwuUaQ/s933/greenteasoap9.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="933" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxkI1EvXbkFExh5h_8FFRUo-XerSD6EyIh0bihfE_u6YsJG5cKS3fqNbfIBV1PA1izJltkwAT5u3pIgVuRtzjqHwkDg4t_7AYUbMW3ECKzwW_23eyoxzmfQAt2UlJdr_zgUyle6G_GEXF4w-2hEZqBST5xXIdMxVaqDMLMq_2aWfdYftfA-RcWdwuUaQ/s16000/greenteasoap9.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Customizing Your Green Tea Melt and Pour Soap</h2><p><br /></p><p>This green tea melt and pour soap recipe is a basic recipe, but you can customize your bars of soap with some additives.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Colorant</h3><p><br /></p><p>If you desire a touch of color in your soap, consider incorporating natural colorants.

This will help the tea stay suspended in the soap and not fall to the bottom.</li><li>If air bubbles form on the surface of the soap, lightly mist the mixture with rubbing alcohol to eliminate them.</li><li>Be patient during the hardening process, allowing the soap ample time to solidify completely before unmolding.</li><li>Should your soap stick to the molds, place them in the freezer for a few minutes to aid in easy release. </li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Curing and Storing Your Green Tea Melt and Pour Soap</h2><p><br /></p><p>Unlike traditional cold-process soap, melt and pour soap does not require a lengthy curing process. Once the soap has hardened and cooled completely in the molds, it is ready to be used. </p><p><br /></p><p>However, allowing it to sit for a few additional days can enhance its longevity and hardness. During this time, the excess moisture in the soap evaporates, resulting in a firmer and longer-lasting bar.</p><p><br /></p><p>To ensure your Green Tea Melt and Pour Soap retains its quality, proper storage is crucial. Keep the soap bars in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. </p><p><br /></p><p>A well-ventilated soap dish or airtight container is ideal for preserving the fragrance and preventing the soap from becoming soft or mushy.

It is important to keep the soap in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. </p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Can I use loose green tea leaves in the soap?</h3><p><br /></p><p>Yes, you can use loose green tea leaves in your Green Tea Melt and Pour Soap. You can use <a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=6220&awinaffid=293543&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.etsy.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dbulk%2Bgreen%2Btea%26ref%3Dsearch_bar" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">bulk green tea</a> or empty the <a href="https://amzn.to/3HUT4A4" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">contents of a tea bag</a> and use that.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Can I use other tea varieties instead of green tea?</h3><p><br /></p><p>While green tea is popular for its numerous health benefits and skincare properties, you can certainly experiment with other tea varieties in your melt and pour soap. </p><p><br /></p><p>Black tea, white tea, or herbal teas like chamomile or lavender can be used as alternatives. Each tea variety brings its own unique properties and fragrance to the soap, allowing you to create diverse and captivating blends.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">How long does it take for the soap to harden?</h3><p><br /></p><p>The time it takes for the Green Tea Melt and Pour Soap to harden and cool completely depends on several factors, including the size and thickness of the soap bars and the room temperature. </p><p><br /></p><p>Typically, it takes a few hours or overnight for the soap to solidify. It is important to exercise patience and avoid unmolding the soap prematurely, as this can lead to deformations or breakage.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Green Tea Soap Ingredients</h2><p><br /></p><p>You will need the following to make 4 one inch soap bars:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>1 pound <a href="https://amzn.to/44LBJDC" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">melt and pour soap base</a></li><li>1 tablespoon <a href="https://amzn.to/3HUT4A4" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">green tea </a></li><li>25 drops essential oils</li><li><a href="https://amzn.to/42D8fpA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">4 inch silicone soap mold</a></li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPIKy_5T_1ZskpjYtpwafvjkXEWFqiRiKEcjFhjIR5S4hF7y93eqU8TBnpoiKq6SqMQrcurskBe6ZtuMRFEEpMo-911ORTSSZ5BV638WuIe36sJLyZ7jnMa-EX8m4Adyu0qrJ5qHOy6stYtZTPspU3QmgJfk_2YI1onTeAEHbcL45S2nehJCnuvkcBdA/s700/greenteasoap1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="517" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPIKy_5T_1ZskpjYtpwafvjkXEWFqiRiKEcjFhjIR5S4hF7y93eqU8TBnpoiKq6SqMQrcurskBe6ZtuMRFEEpMo-911ORTSSZ5BV638WuIe36sJLyZ7jnMa-EX8m4Adyu0qrJ5qHOy6stYtZTPspU3QmgJfk_2YI1onTeAEHbcL45S2nehJCnuvkcBdA/s16000/greenteasoap1.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><div style="text-align: left;"><h2 style="text-align: left;">How to Make Melt and Pour Soap With Green Tea </h2><p><br /><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Step 1</h3><p></p><p><br /></p><p>Cut the soap base into 1 inch cubes.

Over time, this can damage your hair and cause frizzy hair or breakage.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">A DIY heat protectant spray for hair creates a barrier between your hair and the direct heat to protect it from damage.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">If you straighten your hair or use a blow dryer occasionally, then you don't necessarily have to use a heat protectant. However, I still recommend learning how to make heat protectant spray at home to keep your hair healthy.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwNMzn-PcGK3x0FwWhbvJS-1pLDox_C7vmCfcvWzphFs5WOaYiFZZMi7GMJz3rDe97TKjJ-_VE8z5GbZqnFU2w-nQdlf07K7eHN6Vz0DWkjyIzXwa0YLGbDKEsoE17yZKlTR8rc75SUUWcSV2Zt0XT2VzZLfo_f3KpjpbWsUOhSQHwZBWekyF3pygrrw/s1050/heatprotectant9.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1050" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwNMzn-PcGK3x0FwWhbvJS-1pLDox_C7vmCfcvWzphFs5WOaYiFZZMi7GMJz3rDe97TKjJ-_VE8z5GbZqnFU2w-nQdlf07K7eHN6Vz0DWkjyIzXwa0YLGbDKEsoE17yZKlTR8rc75SUUWcSV2Zt0XT2VzZLfo_f3KpjpbWsUOhSQHwZBWekyF3pygrrw/s16000/heatprotectant9.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Can I Use Oil Instead of Heat Protectant Spray?</h2><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Yes, you can use a carrier oil as a natural heat protectant for hair at home. However, not all carrier oils are good for this use.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Oils have a smoke point, which is where it starts smoking and starts burning off. Smoke points can range from 250 degrees to 500 degrees.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Since you'll straighten your hair at 300 to 450 degrees (which isn't recommended), it's important to choose an oil with a high smoke point.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">I used sunflower oil, which has a smoke point of 440 degrees F. Here are some more options to use:</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Coconut oil (350 degrees F)</li><li>Macadamia nut oil (390 degrees F)</li><li>Grapeseed oil (420 degrees F)</li><li>Virgin olive oil (420 degrees F)</li><li>Avocado oil (520 degrees F)</li></ul><p></p><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">So why not just use virgin olive oil or avocado oil since they are cheap and easy to find in most grocery stores? While they will both work and work well as a DIY heat protectant spray for hair, they are heavy oils. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Sunflower oil and grapeseed oil are both dry oils, so they soak into the skin and hair quickly. They nourishing without being too oily. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">You can learn more about <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2015/03/list-of-carrier-oils-and-their-benefits.html">carrier oils and their benefits</a> and find the <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2016/09/list-of-carrier-oils-for-hair.html">best carrier oils for hair.</a> </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Simply Earth doesn't carry grapeseed oil or sunflower oil regularly, so I recommend buying from <a href="https://tidd.ly/44tEqtl" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HB Oils</a> or <a href="http://aspireiq.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=24&aff_id=1885&url=https://mountainroseherbs.com/catalog/ingredients/carrier-oils" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mountain Rose Herbs</a> for high quality oils.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq45pLQ1eZl_VTdi1TqZck-RULVYHTPBXbEucPy5vozAQPfZAmZH1E-rFN3Y-KjUtNsZr5OQOYwM7eR2CF72gjtSbSX_0nwKDNR1e7L0D3P4eKR1TDYMb0Fa84vb0dTZYaYQm1s9Xw5rL8tDd6W70nc6W7nfMxjGEh3qhGxJnbV44S-UePBW5XiMDTtQ/s1050/heatprotectant7.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1050" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq45pLQ1eZl_VTdi1TqZck-RULVYHTPBXbEucPy5vozAQPfZAmZH1E-rFN3Y-KjUtNsZr5OQOYwM7eR2CF72gjtSbSX_0nwKDNR1e7L0D3P4eKR1TDYMb0Fa84vb0dTZYaYQm1s9Xw5rL8tDd6W70nc6W7nfMxjGEh3qhGxJnbV44S-UePBW5XiMDTtQ/s16000/heatprotectant7.jpg" /></a></div><br /><br /></div><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Best Essential Oils for Homemade Heat Protectant Spray</h2><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Simply Earth used <a href="https://bit.ly/3LSGqE2" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">rosemary essential oil</a>, which is a great oil for hair. However, you can also use one of the following oils:</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3xVER0a" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Lavender essential oil </a>is said to promote hair growth.</li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3LTEf3g" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Cedarwood essential oil</a> is said to balance oil production on your scalp.</li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3IC5igl" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Lemongrass essential oil </a>is good for dandruff.</li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3oZZRBL" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Clary sage essential oil</a> is said to strengthen hair.</li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3KH0Pu0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Ylang ylang essential oil</a> is said to balance oil production.</li></ul><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Simply Earth doesn't have a hair blend, but I use <a href="https://bit.ly/412ikuZ" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">BO Be Gone</a>, which is also included in this box, for hair. It's a blend of lavender, orange, patchouli, ylang ylang, and sandalwood essential oils.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Do You Put Heat Protectant on Wet or Dry Hair?</h2><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">You can use this natural heat protectant for hair at home on dry hair or wet hair. Oil and water don't mix well, so I use it on wet hair only if I'm blow drying. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">If I'm using a flat iron, I spray on dry hair before using the iron.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">I also brush my hair with the <a href="https://amzn.to/3oZ1j7y" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Wet Brush Shine Enhancer brush</a>.

It works by slowing down the rate at which the bubble dry out, so they last longer.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">What Kind of Soap Do You Use for a Bubble Bath?</h2><p><br /></p><p>I used liquid castile soap to make my easy homemade bubble bath. Castile soap is a mild soap, so it's great for most skin types.</p><p><br /></p><p>I buy it by the gallon to use in other recipes like my <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2020/03/how-to-make-liquid-hand-soap-with.html">liquid hand soap with castile soap</a>, <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2020/10/how-to-make-thieves-oil-foaming-hand.html">Thieves foaming hand soap</a>, or this <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2023/04/how-to-make-dish-soap.html">easy dish soap recipe</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p>Castile soap is traditionally made with olive oil because it's a mild oil and great for your skin. However, olive oil soap doesn't lather very well.</p><p><br /></p><p>Most liquid castile soaps that you buy also have coconut oil in them. Coconut oil increases the lather, and it's still a mild soap.</p><p><br /></p><p>I wrote a lot more about lather in my <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2022/09/how-to-make-melt-and-pour-soap-lather.html">how to make melt and pour soap lather better</a> post if you want to learn more.</p><p><br /></p><p>I recommend either <a href="https://amzn.to/41qrimP" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Dr. Bronner's liquid castile soap</a> or buy it<a href="https://tidd.ly/41n81T3" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> by the gallon on Etsy</a>. For best results for your castile soap bubble bath, make sure it's made with coconut oil. </p><p><br /></p><p>You can use the rest of the jug for one of these 15 <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2018/06/15-liquid-castile-soap-uses.html">liquid castile soap uses</a>.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7GAjsRR3tnavitptLveXFIymPDGYTciBmKf_GoJQp5RuE8pTrVPACZuFwWgzDC3NIfMDF8ng4vnJKhlCEK3CUl1RWTvoII-7M9Ip4W5khK5o0E6PuZeFr3pDmA-P1MGLZ9k9NimERH-DuVA7jIvKO9UbaWLfSxlYFb76Qozw88wAA8i_KNjLMdXoSeg/s700/bubbleblath6.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7GAjsRR3tnavitptLveXFIymPDGYTciBmKf_GoJQp5RuE8pTrVPACZuFwWgzDC3NIfMDF8ng4vnJKhlCEK3CUl1RWTvoII-7M9Ip4W5khK5o0E6PuZeFr3pDmA-P1MGLZ9k9NimERH-DuVA7jIvKO9UbaWLfSxlYFb76Qozw88wAA8i_KNjLMdXoSeg/s16000/bubbleblath6.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Can I Use Body Wash for a Bubble Bath?</h2><p><br /></p><p>Yes, you can use body wash in place of the liquid castile soap to make homemade bubble bath recipes. I prefer liquid castile soap because it doesn't have any colorants or preservatives in it, but you can use what you're comfortable with.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, I don't recommend using dish soap. While it's safe for the skin, it can be over drying. It can cause dry or itchy skin and irritation.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also caution against using hand soap. It can also be too drying and can irritate your body.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Best Essential Oils for Homemade Bubble Bath Recipes</h2><p><br /></p><p>I used <a href="https://bit.ly/3xVER0a" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">lavender essential oil</a>, but you can use other essential oils or fragrance oils when you learn how to make bubble bath.</p><p><br /></p><p>I recommend the following:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="https://bit.ly/41pIqJP" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Lemon essential oil</a></li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/41wBWrM" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Roman chamomile essential oil</a></li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3KH0Pu0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Ylang ylang essential oil</a></li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3GV63jX" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Frankincense essential oil</a></li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3Lalnwu" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Unicorn blend</a></li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3jStu5x">Peace and Quiet blend</a></li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3Ctjwhn" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Sweet Dreams blend</a></li></ul><div><br /></div><p style="text-align: left;">If you want more variety than what essential oils can give you, I recommend using <a href="https://Naturesoil.com?ref=everythingpretty" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">natural fragrance oils from Nature's Oils.</a> You can also try one of these <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2020/03/fun-essential-oil-blends-that-smell.html">essential oil blends that smell like candy</a>.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">It's important to properly dilute essential oils.

You just need liquid castile soap, water, and essential oils.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">You might find other recipes online, but this one is about as easy as it gets! </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Does Homemade Liquid Dish Soap Need a Preservative?</h2><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Liquid castile soap diluted in water does not need a preservative for a few weeks. However, I recommend making a small batch at a time to prevent it from growing anything in it. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">I would not dilute the soap and store it for months at a time because it can grow mold or bacteria.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">I also recommend using distilled water. I use water than I ran through my Berkey water filter when making DIY recipes.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">What is Liquid Castile Soap?</h2><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Castile soap is a mild soap that's traditionally made from olive oil. You can get it in a bar or as a liquid. I use the liquid often because it's a great base for other products. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Olive oil is a wonderful gentle oil for soapmaking, but it doesn't lather well. Therefore, most liquid castile soap has coconut oil added for lather. It's one of the <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2022/09/how-to-make-melt-and-pour-soap-lather.html">ways to make melt and pour soap lather more</a>.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">You can try one of these <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2018/06/15-liquid-castile-soap-uses.html">liquid castile soap uses</a> or use it one of these recipes:</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2020/03/how-to-make-liquid-hand-soap-with.html">Liquid Hand Soap With Castile Soap</a></li><li><a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2021/06/easy-hand-soap-for-gardeners-recipe.html">Easy Hand Soap for Gardeners</a></li><li><a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2013/03/diy-clarifying-shampoo-recipe.html">DIY Clarifying Shampoo</a></li><li><a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2020/10/how-to-make-thieves-oil-foaming-hand.html">Thieves Foaming Hand Soap Recipe</a></li><li><a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2021/05/gardeners-hand-scrub-recipe.html">Gardeners Hand Scrub</a></li></ul><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Simply Earth sells a <a href="https://bit.ly/3myLKT6" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">16 ounce bottle of liquid castile soap</a> or you can get a<a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=6220&awinaffid=293543&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.etsy.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dliquid%2520castile%2520soap%26ref%3Dsearch_bar" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> larger bottle</a> if you use a lot of it.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhApINwqfTI_jUnOk4alU9Gl0RPL9sfVVJbzU4PTEnBcOkJjnlXdNkO0Su9PrqZIuyINyTvMTa4T5vIxfU0vRksu1N-BL_eVFHHIv4-YN16Iy6znBBlWbFWx0ixL3lHC1djdOy3GaWcIjljuoThR21ZI6ykBzjyUaQdSQn-A9-s6f60sacOADGMScTiIQ/s700/diydishsoap%20(4).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhApINwqfTI_jUnOk4alU9Gl0RPL9sfVVJbzU4PTEnBcOkJjnlXdNkO0Su9PrqZIuyINyTvMTa4T5vIxfU0vRksu1N-BL_eVFHHIv4-YN16Iy6znBBlWbFWx0ixL3lHC1djdOy3GaWcIjljuoThR21ZI6ykBzjyUaQdSQn-A9-s6f60sacOADGMScTiIQ/s16000/diydishsoap%20(4).jpg" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How to Use DIY Dish Soap With Liquid Castile Soap</h2><p><br /></p><p>This natural dish soap recipe isn't like the dishwashing liquid that you're probably used to.

However, you can not add brewed coffee to melt and pour soap.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Instead, you can make coffee grounds soap.

However, I recommend using spent coffee grounds.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Unused coffee grounds can bleed into the soap. Spent coffee grounds don't tend to bleed as much.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">After brewing your coffee, lay the grounds on a dish or pan and let dry completely before using.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Do You Add Coffee Grounds to Melt and Pour Soap?</h2><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Coffee grounds are heavy, so they tend to sink in the soap. To combat this, use a <a href="https://amzn.to/3lFU0QL" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">suspension melt and pour soap base</a>.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">You can also melt the soap and add your additives except for the coffee grounds. Then let the soap cool until it starts to thicken. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Add the coffee grounds, stir, and pour. But be quick, because it will set up quick.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Much Coffee Grounds to Add to Soap?</h2><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Melt and pour soap will only hold so much, so you can't just add as much as you want. Generally, you can add 1 tablespoon of coffee grounds per pound of soap. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhfXjIsNs9GZ8MA6fmY2_IdncPpP4Oy6rLLhjFOUFPodrwFkaFD0cesQgJjuJSZCaCSmMKrraWKBiawOnCktlNEvTlOmNz8VG9OBSK7keD843QP7WSTVd8Et9yS7amQB-Q9Bq-7nM8XCG7paBz3npZkyc1VxweKJEELjwOGhMdCxAZO0qWPUhS_r-xvQ/s700/coffeesoap8.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhfXjIsNs9GZ8MA6fmY2_IdncPpP4Oy6rLLhjFOUFPodrwFkaFD0cesQgJjuJSZCaCSmMKrraWKBiawOnCktlNEvTlOmNz8VG9OBSK7keD843QP7WSTVd8Et9yS7amQB-Q9Bq-7nM8XCG7paBz3npZkyc1VxweKJEELjwOGhMdCxAZO0qWPUhS_r-xvQ/s16000/coffeesoap8.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">What Essential Oil Goes With Coffee Soap?</h2><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">If you just want a coffee scent, then you can use <a href="https://bit.ly/3Z8hLPd" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">coffee essential oil</a>. It smells just like a freshly brewed cup of coffee. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">I like to add <a href="https://bit.ly/3EJqkZw" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">copaiba essential oil</a>. Copaiba smells rich and sweet, almost like honey. It complements the coffee scent and smells like a latte.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">You can also use one of the following essential oils:</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3Zav2Xt" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Orange</a></li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3Z5p0Iz" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Peppermint</a></li><li><a href="https://www.gopjn.com/t/TUJGR0ZGSEJHRk5FTEVCRkxNSUlI?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.planttherapy.com%2Fvanilla-botanical-extract%3Fv%3D3164" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Vanilla</a></li><li><a href="http://aspireiq.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=24&aff_id=1885&url=https://mountainroseherbs.com/cocoa-absolute?sku=12-00144-09" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Cocoa absolute</a></li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3lyGRZQ" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Peru Balsam</a></li><li><a href="https://bit.ly/3LKoPyD" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Patchouli</a></li><li><a href="https://www.gopjn.com/t/TUJGR0ZGSEJHRk5FTEVCRkxNSUlI?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.planttherapy.com%2Frose-absolute-essential-oil%3Fv%3D631" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Rose</a></li></ul><p></p><p></p><p><br /></p><p>You can also leave it coffee scented and not add any additional scent.

They have several coffee drink inspired scents. </p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Coffee Scrub Soap DIY Tips and Tricks</h2><p><br /></p><p>This is a fairly easy melt and pour soap recipe, but here are some tips to help you:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Melt the soap in a double boiler or in the microwave in short 10 to 30 second bursts. Be careful not to overheat or let it boil because your soap can get rubbery.</li><li>Use a quality base. I recommend <a href="https://amzn.to/3K2YcUn" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Stephenson's</a> or <a href="https://www.shopboleks.com/melt-pour-soap-1" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Crafty Bubbles</a>.</li><li>A white base will turn tan with the coffee. Clear soap will have a darker color </li><li>Let the soap cool slightly until it starts to thicken before pouring. This will help keep the soap suspended in the soap.</li><li>You can add up to 50 drops of essential oils per pound of soap. </li><li>I used a <a href="https://amzn.to/40cXERs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">loaf mold</a>. Instead of cutting bars in a loaf, I made one long thin bar and cut that into smaller bars. You can also use this <a href="https://amzn.to/40qZs91" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">rectangle mold</a> to make bars.</li><li>You can use unused coffee grounds or spent coffee grounds.

While you can't permanently shrink your pores, here's <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2019/02/how-to-shink-pores-naturally.html">how to shrink pores naturally</a>, if only temporary. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Toner also soothes and refreshes your skin for smoother and better looking skin.

Use this <a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinaffid=293543&awinmid=6220&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.etsy.com%2Flisting%2F980722435%2Fessential-oil-dilution-chart-printable%3Fclick_key%3D1c6d81683753c3fa1024c560723a4ca9c4c45a57%253A980722435%26click_sum%3D62e1a075%26ref%3Dshop_home_recs_7%26sts%3D1" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">essential oil dilution chart</a> to help you know how many drops to use for recipes.</li><li>You can use different essential oils, but use the same number of drops to keep the dilution correct.</li><li>This makes about 1.33 ounces, so it makes a small bottle. Use a 2 ounce bottle to store it in. You can also double or triple the recipe and use a larger bottle.</li><li>Sweet almond oil is a good choice for most skin types. Use jojoba oil for oily skin, apricot oil for dry skin, or rosehip oil for mature skin.</li><li>This recipe does not need a preservative and does not need to be stored in the fridge, but plan to use it within three months. </li><li>I used witch hazel, but you can also use rose water or lavender hydrosol instead. However, if you use a hydrosol, then you will need to use a preservative or store in the fridge.</li><li>Shake well before using because the witch hazel and oil will separate. You can use an emulsifier made for facial skin, but I omitted to keep the recipe as natural as possible.</li><li>Use a witch hazel formula that is just witch hazel. Some have other ingredients, and you don't want those because your homemade toner for face may not work as well.</li></ul><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Now you know how to make face toner!

The sugar is mildly abrasive, so it sloughs of dead skin cells on the surface of your skin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Getting these dead skin cells off helps your skin feel better and look better.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sugar scrubs also get into you pores to loosen and remove dead skin cells and dirt. This also helps your skin look better.</p><p><br /></p><p>You can also use salt to make a unicorn body scrub DIY. Learn about <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2016/04/salt-scrub-vs-sugar-scrub-which-is.html">sugar scrub vs salt scrub</a> to see which one is better for your skin.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Will Food Coloring in Sugar Scrubs Stain Skin?</h2><p><br /></p><p>Food coloring will stain your skin and tub if used undiluted. However, it's diluted enough in a DIY sugar scrub so it shouldn't stain.</p><p><br /></p><p>With that said, since this is a layered unicorn sugar scrub, food coloring will seep out into the other layers. </p><p><br /></p><p>I recommend using<a href="https://tidd.ly/3mCFg5x" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> mica powder</a> for better results.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOZprYBxl4-P4n4ZYIKEIDf3ugvNDB2gkZrfq-PSB9HnPx-9YQCtRF4sb5X2buprvieb7uPgvkoounxmEpPhkHF51L6l-WSr7nNYRSJMma_-AknwioGEU5zFVeCkzSYyBWViy_E8Vqx6CQVmjIVsJ-_i8-J1YyeQ3CHEUHwrJoHdc0nhwaNuuRBR0jZQ/s934/unicornscrub7.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="934" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOZprYBxl4-P4n4ZYIKEIDf3ugvNDB2gkZrfq-PSB9HnPx-9YQCtRF4sb5X2buprvieb7uPgvkoounxmEpPhkHF51L6l-WSr7nNYRSJMma_-AknwioGEU5zFVeCkzSYyBWViy_E8Vqx6CQVmjIVsJ-_i8-J1YyeQ3CHEUHwrJoHdc0nhwaNuuRBR0jZQ/s16000/unicornscrub7.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Where Should You Not Use Sugar Scrubs?</h2><p><br /></p><p>You can use a unicorn sugar scrub on most of your body. However, do not use it on your face or on sensitive parts of your body.</p><p><br /></p><p>The sugar is too abrasive for facial skin. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also avoid using a DIY sugar scrub on broken skin or irritated skin. Do not use on damaged skin like from a sunburn.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Are Sugar Scrubs Better Before or After Body Wash?</h2><p><br /></p><p>Some people like to use a unicorn body scrub before washing, and other prefer to use it after washing. For best results, I like to use a body scrub after washing. </p><p><br /></p><p>Washing helps remove dirt and oil, which helps the scrub work better.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Do You Rinse Off a Sugar Scrub?</h2><p><br /></p><p>Yes, you should rinse off after using this DIY unicorn sugar scrub. The sugar will make your skin feel sticky if you don't rinse.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid54OUKnEah_ggbOx-EtW9202YoDqveqbm8e7agrPLC5akVY_UiHDgXA1J790O0vhEtmk3aokYRj-whJQrALQz2H-7MQbP0YUArqr73tA52UkagvlOq6PVFsoEA5U1jPwD-zmdkzbmNbeHcXVYefFd0AeLtLbCldwORSEwXzBjFTfyxU6rfqGNm8Hg0A/s933/unicornscrub8.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="933" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid54OUKnEah_ggbOx-EtW9202YoDqveqbm8e7agrPLC5akVY_UiHDgXA1J790O0vhEtmk3aokYRj-whJQrALQz2H-7MQbP0YUArqr73tA52UkagvlOq6PVFsoEA5U1jPwD-zmdkzbmNbeHcXVYefFd0AeLtLbCldwORSEwXzBjFTfyxU6rfqGNm8Hg0A/s16000/unicornscrub8.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Many Times a Week Should You Use a Sugar Scrub?</h2><p><br /></p><p>You can use a DIY unicorn sugar scrub once or twice a week. Using it more often can irritate your skin and may even disrupt the top layer of your skin and make it dry.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">What Oil is Best for Sugar Scrub?</h2><p><br /></p><p>I used <a href="https://tidd.ly/41STpeR" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">sweet almond oil </a>to make my DIY unicorn sugar scrub because it's an excellent all purpose carrier oil. It's also inexpensive.</p><p><br /></p><p>Carrier oils have different benefits for your skin, and you can learn about <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2015/03/list-of-carrier-oils-and-their-benefits.html">carrier oils and their benefits</a> here.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here are more carrier oils you can try:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Coconut oil is solid at room temperature, so it will make this scrub firmer. Coconut oil is moisturizing and has vitamins A and E for your skin.</li><li>Grapeseed oil is a light oil, so it soaks in quickly. It won't leave your skin as oily as other oils.</li><li>Argan oil is high in vitamin E for antiaging. It won't clog pores, so it's good for acne prone skin.</li><li>Avocado oil is a rich oil that's very moisturizing. It can cause breakouts for those with acne prone skin. You can mix it with another oil if it's too heavy.</li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><p>I recommend getting carrier oils from <a href="https://www.shopboleks.com/natural-oils" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Crafty Bubbles</a>, <a href="http://aspireiq.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=24&aff_id=1885&url=https://mountainroseherbs.com/catalog/ingredients/carrier-oils" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mountain Rose Herbs</a>, or <a href="https://tidd.ly/3SZgoRu" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HB Oils</a>.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXt4usNtPcN5kuEGdwnyUmMzEUiVUB8KTtUo8JKFd7Nob6PdJY6z6EptBB4SKvYch7epn9pWRdDt4FgTqSrfF5k-bvaHHgQdTMoKGf8x_8vV946XW2kZxqj6qDIZAV7bnFWWEeYVcdscsAL4qLMHWqlI5-xJJ9kOUcg4UEmJqkkXjHRrv7fVz8OKAK4w/s700/unicornscrub5.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="518" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXt4usNtPcN5kuEGdwnyUmMzEUiVUB8KTtUo8JKFd7Nob6PdJY6z6EptBB4SKvYch7epn9pWRdDt4FgTqSrfF5k-bvaHHgQdTMoKGf8x_8vV946XW2kZxqj6qDIZAV7bnFWWEeYVcdscsAL4qLMHWqlI5-xJJ9kOUcg4UEmJqkkXjHRrv7fVz8OKAK4w/s16000/unicornscrub5.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Essential Oils for Unicorn Sugar Scrub </h2><p><br /></p><p>Crafty Bubbles has a <a href="https://www.shopboleks.com/product-page/100-unicorn-kisses-natural-fragrance-oils" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Unicorn Kisses blend</a> of essential oils and natural fragrance oils that smells amazing.

However, be careful not to introduce water into it.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you use it in the shower and risk getting water in it, then I recommend using a preservative.

Here are some ideas to try:</p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Essential Oils. For a natural flavor, try using <a href="https://bit.ly/3HwP2hS" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">essential oils</a>. Be sure that you use skin safe essential oils and don't use more than 0.5 to 1 percent dilution. Use an <a href="https://tidd.ly/3hsfePM" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">essential oil dilution chart</a> to calculate.</li><li>Candy Flavoring. You can also use candy flavor oils like <a href="https://amzn.to/3KIuIvC" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LorAnn flavor oils</a>. These work really well and have a variety of flavors.</li><li>Flavor Oils. You can also use <a href="https://tidd.ly/3J2Ovol" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">flavor oils</a>. These can be used for lip products and are available in a variety of fun flavors.</li><li>Absolutes. <a href="https://tidd.ly/41NDb71" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Cocoa absolute</a> and <a href="https://tidd.ly/3Z9ujGJ" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">vanilla absolute</a> can also be used.</li></ul><div><br /></div><p style="text-align: left;">Be careful using fragrance oils unless they are labeled as safe for use in lip products.

This is the unpasteurized and unfiltered version. It looks cloudy and contains some sediments, which is why you'll want to shake it before using. </p><p><br /></p><p>These sediments are called the Mother.

ACV can help to reduce acne on your face and neck. It does this because apple cider vinegar helps to reduce keratin, which is the protein that builds up and causes acne. ACV is best for acne on oily skin as there is less chance of the skin drying out too much. </p><p><br /></p><p><b>Minor Skin Infections</b>. Soaking skin in apple cider vinegar can help to alleviate skin infections such as athlete's foot and paronychia, which is a buildup of infection around fingernails. ACV can help treat toenail infections and facial infections as well.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Eczema or Psoriasis</b>. Apple cider vinegar can be used to kill bacteria that might affect irritated areas of the skin. Having eczema means the skin fails to build a good barrier that would otherwise protect the skin from bacteria. ACV can be used to help prevent infection, but should not be used directly on eczematic areas. This is because it will burn a lot and cause the skin to dry.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Cleansing</b>. Apple cider vinegar is a great way to cleanse your face to get rid of dirt, debris, and bacteria. </p><p><br /></p><p><b>Toner</b>. Apple cider vinegar is a natural astringent, so it works as an effective toner for your skin.

As such, overuse or misuse can be harmful to your skin. Overusing ACV can remove the first layer of your skin leaving it dry and red. </p><p><br /></p><p>As such, you should always be careful when using ACV on your face, and be sure to never overuse it. Always dilute it, and you can dilute it to a lower percent if you experience redness or irritation.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Can Apple Cider Vinegar Remove Dark Spots?</h2><p><br /></p><p>Yes, ACV can help to whiten your skin and remove dark spots. This is one of the many apple cider vinegar benefits for skin. ACV may help to lighten the overall pigmentation of your skin.</p><p><br /></p><p>To use ACV for this purpose, you will want to combine equal parts ACV and water in a container and apply to dark spots. Let it sit for five to seven minutes before rinsing. </p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Do You Use Apple Cider Vinegar As A Toner?</h2><p><br /></p><p>You can use ACV and water or ACV, water, and witch hazel to make a toner. Use it after cleansing to remove more debris from your skin. </p><p><br /></p><p>Before each use of the toner be sure to shake the mixture well. You will want to store it in a cool and dry place.

It's made by adding melt and pour soap to a sugar scrub so that it gets firm and forms bars.</p><p><br /></p><p>I like them because they both cleanse and exfoliate at the same time. They are also easy to make and easy to use.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">What are the Ingredients in Exfoliating Bar Soap?</h2><p><br /></p><p>A solid sugar scrub bar recipe is fairly simple with just a few ingredients. You'll need <a href="https://tidd.ly/3DWpAzT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">melt and pour soap</a>, a carrier oil, sugar, and essential oils. I also added mica as a colorant, but this is optional.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Are Sugar Scrubs Good for Your Skin?</h2><p><br /></p><p>Yes, a solid body scrub is good for your skin. They are more gentle than a sugar scrub, so they are well tolerated by most skin types.</p><p><br /></p><p>The soap cleanses your skin while the sugar acts like a gentle exfoliating to slough off dead skin cells from the top of your skin.</p><p><br /></p><p>They aren't as strong as using a sugar scrub, but you can use them several times a week to keep your skin looking and feeling good.</p><p><br /></p><p>Even though they are gentle, avoid using sugar scrub soap bars on the face or sensitive areas. Also do not use on broken skin.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgG3Q8i-K_ums_dVf9_qZmVJadPRSF6hfrFVbgriSfafGdhluK6hdVbou8QrPIOeQd3KPI5H7BrBQyVVprxd0L2pm_4tF55kEyl4iwPl6WME0e7ML_bzu5BmO_zsAg2wtg-OUVuvrTmCV16HJ_BnHACwhyOhiXzrjYYvKhEtLwKCIwLWflheMaplvHeqw/s700/solidsugarscrubcubes%20(2).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgG3Q8i-K_ums_dVf9_qZmVJadPRSF6hfrFVbgriSfafGdhluK6hdVbou8QrPIOeQd3KPI5H7BrBQyVVprxd0L2pm_4tF55kEyl4iwPl6WME0e7ML_bzu5BmO_zsAg2wtg-OUVuvrTmCV16HJ_BnHACwhyOhiXzrjYYvKhEtLwKCIwLWflheMaplvHeqw/s16000/solidsugarscrubcubes%20(2).jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Often Should You Sugar Scrub Your Skin?</h2><p><br /></p><p>You can use a sugar scrub once or twice a week.

I used a <a href="https://tidd.ly/3DWpAzT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">shea butter melt and pour soap</a>.</li><li>You can use your choice of carrier oil. I used <a href="https://bit.ly/3QktIyy" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">sweet almond oil</a>, but you can also use <a href="https://tidd.ly/3RTsBGY" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">avocado oil</a> for a heavier oil or <a href="https://tidd.ly/3HQTWEO" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">fractionated coconut oil</a> for a lighter oil. Learn more about <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2015/03/list-of-carrier-oils-and-their-benefits.html">carrier oils and their benefits</a> to choose one.</li><li>I like to use smaller molds for a scrub soap for body because I don't use them all the time. You can also use a larger mold.</li><li>A solid body scrub can get hard while you're mixing it and make it difficult to pour. If this happens, simply heat it for about 10 seconds and then stir and pour.</li><li>Be careful not to overheat the soap. The sugar will dissolve, and your sugar scrub soap bars won't be as abrasive.</li><li>I used mica to color my scrub soap bar recipe. Adding a colorant is optional. You an also use soap colorant. </li><li>I used a blend of essential oils from Simply Earth from the box.

I use both to make this recipe.</p><p><br /></p><p>Rose essential oil is very expensive, so I used a blend called <a href="https://www.revive-eo.com/product/smell-the-roses?rfsn=6116625.f5ca7a" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Smell the Roses</a>. It has rose essential oil in, and it smells just like a fresh bouquet of roses.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Do You Put Rose Petals in a Bath Bomb?</h2><p><br /></p><p>Full sized rose petals are too big to work with for bath bombs, so I recommend either cutting the rose petals with <a href="https://amzn.to/3wGDzpc" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">herb scissors</a> or otherwise making them smaller.</p><p><br /></p><p>You can also use <a href="https://amzn.to/3jbBmzi" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">mini rose buds</a> like those used for herbal tea.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Can You Put Fresh Rose Petals in a Bath Bomb?</h2><p><br /></p><p>No, you can not use fresh rose petals in a rose petal bath bomb. Fresh rose petals will soon rot in the bath bomb, and you'd be bathing in dirty water.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Can You Use Rose Water in Bath Bombs?</h2><p><br /></p><p>I don't recommend using water or rose water in bath bombs. The baking soda and citric acid are activated by water, and the rose water will cause them to start to fizz as you're making them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Instead, I use either isopropyl alcohol or witch hazel to wet my dry ingredients. This doesn't activate the bubbles, and it evaporates and doesn't leave behind a smell.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhirqB8rHmkfD1YM8yfZ2O9v9JzmilopHmRgVGV1SZnaRjb54s1mKsS1xPUYIfUsZuMi5spQHXZjCIJAyRC1YQIDFVd4tsVbaJqF8VMrUUD2-c6M4-IODeP59nHBkKNMcJWn6F6eA368qp5Vl3ZTa8XXDUff6USj0J0Ty4QhJ9PTib6hcMmpz8n189Njg/s700/rosebathbombs9.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhirqB8rHmkfD1YM8yfZ2O9v9JzmilopHmRgVGV1SZnaRjb54s1mKsS1xPUYIfUsZuMi5spQHXZjCIJAyRC1YQIDFVd4tsVbaJqF8VMrUUD2-c6M4-IODeP59nHBkKNMcJWn6F6eA368qp5Vl3ZTa8XXDUff6USj0J0Ty4QhJ9PTib6hcMmpz8n189Njg/s16000/rosebathbombs9.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">What Are the Benefits of Rose Petals in Bath?</h2><p><br /></p><p>There are several <a href="https://tidd.ly/3DyBYpF" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">rose petal</a> bath benefits. </p><p><br /></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Roses are hydrating without making your skin oily. </li><li>Rose petals promote skin health with vitamins A and C.</li><li>Roses promote healing from minor scraps, cuts, and dry skin. </li><li>Roses have anti aging properties due to the high amount of antioxidants.</li><li>Roses are natural anti inflammatory. </li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><p>I also used rose petals in this <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2023/01/how-to-make-rose-petal-salve.html">rose petal salve recipe</a>, <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2017/02/rose-bath-salts.html">rose petal bath salts</a>, <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2024/02/rose-petal-body-scrub-recipe.html">rose petal body scrub</a>, and <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2020/01/rose-milk-bath-tea-recipe-for-dry-skin.html">rose milk bath tea</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p>You can also use rose petals to <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2015/03/how-to-make-rose-oil-at-home.html">make your own rose oil</a> or <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2015/02/how-to-make-rose-water.html">make your own rose water</a>.</p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Best Essential Oils for Rose Bath Bomb Recipe</h2><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://bit.ly/3x5Ul2G" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Rose essential oil</a> is a great choice for making this rose bath bomb recipe.

It's a blend of Geranium, Ho Leaf, Ylang Ylang, Clove, Eucalyptus, and Rose. </p><p><br /></p><p>It has several skin benefits similar to using rose essential oil, but it's cheaper.

You can also use corn starch.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Sweet Almond Oil</b> - I used <a href="https://tidd.ly/3XR2O4i" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">sweet almond oil</a> as a carrier oil for the essential oils. You can use your favorite liquid carrier oil. Learn about <a href="https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2015/03/list-of-carrier-oils-and-their-benefits.html">different carrier oils and their benefits</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Rubbing Alcohol </b>- I use rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle to bind the dry ingredients together without activating the baking soda and citric acid.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Essential Oils</b> - I used <a href="https://www.revive-eo.com/product/smell-the-roses?rfsn=6116625.f5ca7a" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Smell the Roses</a>. You can also use your favorite essential oil or essential oil blend.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Dried Rose Petals</b> - Use only <a href="https://tidd.ly/3DyBYpF" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">dried rose petals</a>. I cut regular sized petals or use <a href="https://amzn.to/3jbBmzi" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">mini rose petals</a> and remove them from the bud.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Heart Mold </b>- This is the <a href="https://amzn.to/3XRP6ya" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">heart shaped mold</a> that I used. This made 9 bath bombs. You can also use round metal molds.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzIX6mmphHf3InT17L4VQ6KtIOIv6hcxkRBMDnx0KDsurZRNsc-ugOGRblQlIddFMGp2GuCm3X3eea4-COEqHXdG3DIydDVxaD-6WnyxICOphsxt3FIGT5g96A_bhGSST3yC-ixCfsc4do3P0-jxq18ik75fVcpUaabr8yJhUZ4iCsT22O9st4MhNGLw/s700/rosebathbombs1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzIX6mmphHf3InT17L4VQ6KtIOIv6hcxkRBMDnx0KDsurZRNsc-ugOGRblQlIddFMGp2GuCm3X3eea4-COEqHXdG3DIydDVxaD-6WnyxICOphsxt3FIGT5g96A_bhGSST3yC-ixCfsc4do3P0-jxq18ik75fVcpUaabr8yJhUZ4iCsT22O9st4MhNGLw/s16000/rosebathbombs1.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Do You Make Bath Bombs With Rose Petals?</h2><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Step #1</h3><p><br /></p><p>Combine the baking soda, Epsom salts, arrowroot powder, and citric acid in a medium bowl and whisk together until combined.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFmd1iAfZlmNN6g_eTi0LzfJQ7VopmqDwoam1IJJO4YCRuBtx9DuIvvlE_kQ8Nkyr_5DSj5pzSlvj4hwKrYvDeVxPQdUMQdbi4Vc5vlROu1D1LjFgu11eQNyPQVPq9gTuNrNnItU8GdulZaYDjHjBKkQt88QYkxxer0KFMBg_RYfcGSShIRLDQJMTeRA/s700/rosebathbombs3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFmd1iAfZlmNN6g_eTi0LzfJQ7VopmqDwoam1IJJO4YCRuBtx9DuIvvlE_kQ8Nkyr_5DSj5pzSlvj4hwKrYvDeVxPQdUMQdbi4Vc5vlROu1D1LjFgu11eQNyPQVPq9gTuNrNnItU8GdulZaYDjHjBKkQt88QYkxxer0KFMBg_RYfcGSShIRLDQJMTeRA/s16000/rosebathbombs3.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Step #2</h3><p><br /></p><p>Combine the almond oil and essential oils.

It’s also anti inflammatory and can reduce redness on the skin.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Baking Soda </b>- <a href="https://amzn.to/3keW557" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Baking soda</a> helps tighten pores and makes skin look and feel better. It exfoliates while you soak for brighter looking skin. </p><p><br /></p><p><b>Rose Petals</b> - Use <a href="https://tidd.ly/3H9ZCe7" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">dried rose petals</a> and not fresh rose petals. Rose petals have vitamins A and C and antioxidants to promote skin health.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Rose Essential Oil </b>- <a href="https://bit.ly/3x5Ul2G" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Rose essential oil</a> can reduce stress and anxiety when used in aromatherapy.
