Tea Tree and Kelp Formulation (Recipe)

Submitted By:

Tara

Summary:

A great healing soap

Ingredients:

1 lb suspension melt & pour base
2 tablespoons Kelp powder
2 tablespoons flax seed meal
15-20 drops Tea Tree essential oil

Instructions:

Melt the soap base over a double boiler. Remove a small amount of soap into a cup. Mix kelp and flax meal into this, then add back into the rest of the melted soap base. Add the Tea Tree oil last. Tea Tree and Kelp are both very strong smelling, so they help to 'hide' each other. Kelp is a great skin detoxifier, and Tea Tree has tons of good properties, such as being an anti-fungal and healing aid. Milled Flax seeds are a nice gentle exfoliator. This is my most popular soap. Try using a Goat's Milk M&P base if you find this too drying.
