Hello everyone,just wanted to share some pictures of my goats milk soap that I had been waiting to make for months.
Unfortunately my raw milk supplier was not in stock for the winter and just now I was able to make a purchase.
This was the last soap I had planed to make so now I caught up finally.

This is a raw goats milk and bee pollen soap.
I did did not deduct any milk like I would normally do with water, And I put my pollen threw a grinder to make it more of a powder.
As for the scent I wanted a bit mojito smell. I mixed lime and spearmint.
At first the spearmint was overpowering, but once the soap cured it smelled almost entirely of lime.
Next batch I will be adding some more peppermint.
The soap couldn't of came out better, I am very happy so far and can not wait to make my cuts and try it out in the shower.

Looks really great...nice and creamy too! Will the bee pollen be exfoliating? Does it add the same benefits of honey or does it bring something else to the table? Sounds like a great addition!
 
Thanks everyone for the kind remarks.

The pollen will act a little as a exfoliate i guess, not sure exactly what properties are carried over, It is for esthetic's and for quality, I am not sure what it adds to the soap. The bees mix pollen with there honey to make them granular so i guess there would be a tiny bit of honey, and the pollen might contain some beneficial quality's to the skin. I know it is quite good to eat. And has a sweet taste.
