3 oz opaque Melt and Pour soap base
1 Sliced Loofah
15 drops of lime essential oil
1 Tbs Aloe Vera gel
Green Coloring
Soap Mold
You can melt the base soap in a double boiler or the microwave. Meantime prepare your mold. You can use any round mold even a muffin tin. Slice your Loofah into pieces (that fit in your muffin tin). Prepare the mold by using a spray oil as a mold release agent.
Microwave method:
Add your chunks of soap to a large microwave bowl. Cover the bowl with cling wrap to prevent moisture loss. Melt the base soap on high for one minute and then stir in any un-melted pieces.
Once the soap base is melted allow to cool slightly then add remaining ingredients. Pour in to the mold which has the loofah already inserted.
Tap the mold a few times to allow the soap to settle. Once cool remove for molds and allow to harden for 3-5 days.
