I had no idea how this batch would turn out since it was a made from many other batches. I had no expectations at all. After several hours of letting it slowly melt down and burn off the fragrance it sort of just came to me that this batch would look good with some clays in it. I started mentally going through my list of clays and muds that I have in my store room and settled on some Fuller’s Earth. I could have gone with some French Green clay which would have given it a very nice color but I went with the Fullers because its excellent at gently drawing oils off the skin, then I added in some finely ground oatmeal to make it scrubby. Suddenly my kitchen sink soap was taking shape. Some Lemon essential oil gave it just the right ‘clean’ notes. It has turned out to be a great soap for getting grease and oil off! Success!
