TGIF!!  I’m super excited to have Katie back with us today sharing a fabulous cucumber soap recipe! Enjoy.

Hey again Live Laugh Rowe readers! It’s Katie from The Casual Craftlete blog.  I hope you all enjoyed my DIY Flower Bouquet last month!  Today I am sharing how to make Avocado Cucumber and Oats Soap Recipe. This is a glycerin soap that is very easy to make and leaves your skin feeling soft.  With gardening season coming up this is a great soap to have on hand.  Pun intended…hehe.

Supplies:

Avocado Cucumber Soap Base
Cucumber Melon Fragrance
1/4 cup oats
Rectangle Soap Mold

Step 1:  Following the instructions on the soap base container, heat desired amount of soap in the microwave for (40 seconds on high, then 10 second intervals until melted) or in a double boiler.  *I used half of the soap base and microwaved it in a 2 cup Pyrex measuring cup, stirring with a spatula after each 10 second interval.  This amount will make 4 rectangle bars.

Step 2:  Add desired amount of soap scent and oatmeal to the soap base and stir until well combined.

Step 3:  Pour the soap into the molds and let cool (20-40 minutes).  I let mine cool overnight just to make sure the soap was completely set.

Step 4:  Release the soap using your thumbs, applying, gentle constant pressure to release from the mold. Wrap soap in wax or parchment paper to keep from sticking.

The soap has a beautiful pale green tint to it from the avocado cucumber base.  The cucumber melon scent is so nice and refreshing, while the oats soothe the skin, helping to reduce inflammation and heal dry, itchy skin.
