Finally trying out some of my soaps...

[MrsFusion]

I tried many different oil combos and %'s and I'm finally getting to use some of them.

I tried my spearmint/eucalyptus this morning after my workout....WOW....the soap was as invigorating as the workout I love it.

It's so fun to be able to finally use them

It's sooo hard to wait for our soaps to cure, but so worth it when they're ready to be used. Sounds like you made a really nice one.

Isn't it great? I find it really hard to wait until the soaps finish curing. Spearmint/eucalyptus sounds like a fantastic blend.

I love any minty scent...congrats on your success.

FYI I have just started using my ginger pear fo scented salt soap and I am surprised by how much the scent stays on your hands after you use it. My guess is it is because I used avocado oil which has a lot of unsaponifiables.

I also planned on adding my salt to the oil at a 1 to 1 ratio, but I had just a bit more salt than oil and I decided to add it. It did make the soap more crumbly than normal after it cured, but I used it after doing some work that had left a lot of gunk on my hands that was very filthy. This soap did wonders at being scrubby and not totally drying out my hands after a very long handwashing session and numerous other handwashes.
