Today we are creating "Green Tea & Cucumber" scented, layered soap. The soap is naturally coloured using Indigo, Annatto and activated charcoal and we have gone with a slanted, layered design. The top of the soap is testured and then decorated with Juniper Berries and Linden leaves. Today's soap has an amazingly fresh scent and feel to it.

This limited edition soap will be available to purchase on our website from midnight on 1st February 2021

We are using the 5lb loaf mold from Bramble Berry to create this design and this is the recipe that we used to fill our mold:

218g Sodium Hydroxide
480g Water
680g Olive Oil
198g Sweet Almond Oil
114g Castor Oil
368g Coconut Oil
150g Shea Butter
76g Cocoa Butter
2g Activated Charcoal clay
1g Indigo Dye
11g Annatto Seeds (to infuse in 1/3 of the Olive Oil)
5g Juniper Berries
4g Linden Leaves
40 g Green Tea & Cucumber Fragrance Oil
