Baobab and Jojoba Soap Project
This Baobab and Jojoba Soap is simple, yet packed with skin-loving ingredients.
It starts with Oatmeal Melt and Pour Soap Base, which contains oat protein and whole oats. Baobab powder is mixed into jojoba oil and added next.
Baobab powder is sourced from Baraka Shea Butter and is rich in vitamin C. A touch of ylang ylang essential oil gives these bars a floral scent.
What You Need:
Baobab Powder - 3 oz
Jojoba Oil, Golden - 4 oz
SFIC Oatmeal Melt and Pour Soap Base - 1 lb
4 Cavity Classic Leaf Silicone Mold - 1 mold
