Are you a fancy soap person?

Because, honestly, I’m not.

I didn’t grow up in a fancy soap household. And when I did visit a fancy soap household, I didn’t really know if you could/should use the fancy soap.

Are you supposed to use the fancy soap?

And don’t even get me started on the fancy towels. 😉

So why am I making fancy soap today?

Good question. I’m not really sure …

Perhaps I aspire to become a fancy soap person?

Or perhaps I came across some homemade soap projects on Pinterest and thought, “oh, that looks fun. And easy. And great smelling!”

So here I am. Making some fancy-fun-and-easy-great-smelling homemade soap!

    This soap recipe is so much easier than the others I’ve seen. Thank you! Pinning this so I can finally make lavender soap that doesn’t have 80 ingredients! 😊

    I use MY fancy soaps but don’t know if I could use other people’s! These’d also be luscious in a lingerie drawer or linen closet shelf!

    I am having a problem with the goat’s milk hardening before I can get the oil and lavender into it and poured into the molds.

    The lavender buds will discolor the soap and look like mice poop soon

      Sadly this is true. I’ll have to find another option that won’t turn brown.

    This is my first soap recipe to try because I wanted to make 180 hotel size soaps for gifts for my daughter’s wedding guests. I used lavender seeds that don’t look like poop (some do) and mixed my four lavenders oils into one for a strong scent. So far, they are coming out great. So simple. Thank you.

    I have made these before but I add vitamin e oil to mine and sometimes I’ve added vanilla. I love this recipe and the soap comes out so beautiful and it’s good for our skin especially if you add the vitamin e oil. I use it on a daily basis skin I’d do smooth and soft. Thanks for sharing

    You’re not melting it long enough. Melt the goats milk a little longer and you should be fine then

    I’m concerned what all the lavender that comes off when you use it will do to your shower…We have septic and my favorite thing is lavender….have you had any problems? I’m a complete lavender freak! I want to make this!
