Fresh Tumeric & Carrot Soap Recipe
Recipe Instructions
Shred Tumeric to prepare for infusion with Olive oil
Infuse Olive oil with freshly shredded Tumeric (Later, drain to have only infused Olive oil)
Weigh out hard oils and allow to melt
Shred carrots (3) medium sized then stick blend to make puree and strain to get the juice
Weigh out Essential oils
A little less than 1/4 tsp cornstarch into Essential Oil Mix (To make scent last longer)
Lye and oil were less than 10 degrees apart in temperature when Lye poured into oils
Poured Carrot juice in before pouring lye (probably shouldn't have but we'll see what happens)
