Goat Milk and Alfalfa Soap Project
- Skill Level: Beginner
- Time: 30 minutes
- Yield: 6 bars of soap
Project Description
The natural choice for this recipe is Goat Milk Melt and Pour Soap Base, which contains 10% goat milk.
The spinach powder is first dispersed in 99% isopropyl alcohol to get rid of clumps. It’s then added to the melted base. It gives the bars a natural, subtle green color. To complement the green hue, the bars are scented with spearmint essential oil.
You will need:
- 6 Cavity Goat Silicone Mold
- 20 oz. Goat Milk Melt & Pour Soap Base
- 0.3 oz. Spearmint Essential Oil
- 3 tsp. Spinach Powder
- 99% Isopropyl Alcohol in a Spray Bottle
Follow these steps:
1
Chop 20 oz. of Goat Milk Melt and Pour Soap Base into small, uniform cubes. Place them into a heat-safe container and melt in the microwave using 20-30 second bursts. Stir between each burst.
2
Mix 3 tsp. of spinach powder with a splash of 99% isopropyl alcohol. Use just enough alcohol to be able to stir in the powder and get rid of chunks – about 2 tablespoons. Mix the alcohol and powder together until the chunks are gone.
3
Add the spinach powder mixture to the melted soap base. Use a spoon to stir in the powder, making sure there are no chunks.
4
Add 0.3 oz. of spearmint essential oil and use the spoon to thoroughly stir in.
5
Pour the soap into the 6 Cavity Silicone Goat Mold. After each pour, spray the soap with 99% isopropyl alcohol to get rid of any bubbles. Allow the soap to fully cool and harden.
6
Remove the soaps from the mold. Cover in plastic wrap to prevent glycerin dew. Enjoy.
