Super simple soaps are my friend.  They’re fun to make and make incredible gifts!  Homemade gifts are a little more special too.  Let’s learn how to make loofah soap.

I remember the first time I saw some loofah soap and thought it was genius!  Of course, I had to give it a whirl.  And does having a little exfoliator within the soap hurt?  NOPE!

Did I mention simple?  Yeah?  I thought so, but a little reminder was in order (wink).  Let’s get started!

Supplies for Loofah Soap:
Cranberry Essential Oil (or oil of choice)
Serrated Knife
Natural Loofah
Microwavable Glass Batter Bowl with Spout
Spoon (for stirring)
White Melt and Pour Soap Base, 1 lb.
Soap Cutter
Silicone Soap Mold

Makes: 8 Bars of Loofah Soap

Step One:  Cut Loofah
Cut the loofah into approximately 1/2″ thick rounds.  Adjust the size accordingly, depending on the size of your molds.

Using a soap cutter, cut the soap base into cubes.  I like to melt 1/2 pound of soap at a time.  Place the cubes into the microwavable glass bowl and heat in 30-second increments until it is melted (stirring after each increment).  For reference, a 1/2 pound of soap will make 4 bars.

If using an essential oil, place a few drops of essential oil into the melted base and stir.

Pour soap into the silicone mold, gently place loofah into the soap and press down (lightly).  Allow soap to set overnight or refrigerate it to set faster.

Note:  I’ve seen tutorials where you pour a small amount of soap into the mold, then place the loofah and fill the rest of the way with soap.  I tried this and it didn’t work for me.  The loofah wasn’t at all visible.  Womp womp womp.

    I love proper soaps that actually smell of what they should be – like lavender with bits of the lavender seeds in it. Would love to have a good at making soap – I had a chance via the WI in Norfolk to have a day at the UEA and make some hand and face cream – that was a super day.
