Lemon-Rosemary Gourmet's Soap Formulation (Recipe)

Submitted By:

Susan of Pittsburgh, PA

Summary:

A big helper in fighting tough cooking odors!

Ingredients:

2 lbs clear melt & pour base
Lemon essential oil
Lime essential oil
4 tsp dried rosemary leaves

Instructions:

Melt the soap base over a double boiler and gently stir in the rosemary leaves. Remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly. Add 1/4 oz of each essential oil and stir. Most of the rosemary will float, but the finer particles of rosemary will sink, leaving a nice speckled effect.
The lemon lime scent helps to remove garlic, fish, and onion odors from hands, the rosemary is a natural antibacterial, eliminating the need for harsh anti-bacterial hand soaps. Place a bar by your kitchen sink to revitalize hands after tough meals!
