Honey Soap – Honey Skin Care

How to make milk and honey soap the easy way.

I have tried to make soap a few times in the past. It can be a very labor intensive job, but also very satisfying. Or, you can make it quite easily, if you use a base. I purchased Life of the Party Suspension Soap Base, 2 pound Goats Milk off of Amazon for $16.93.

What you will need:

Goat’s milk soap base (1 pound)

3 Tablespoons raw honey

Essential oils (optional)

Silicone molds

The base is very soft to work with. I used approximately half the package and melted it over a double boiler, or at least my version of a double boiler, which was a glass bowl over a saucepan of boiling water.

After the base melts, remove it from the heat and add 3 tablespoons of raw honey. This will add an antibacterial element to the soap, and a pleasant scent. You can also add essential oils at this time if you would like. I have used, orange, peppermint, vanilla, and lemon grass. All have worked, and smelled great.

Give everything a really good stir to incorporate all the ingredients, and then pour into silicone molds. I used a cute honey bee, and comb mold for these, but also have used a daisy, or heart mold.
