Chamomile/peppermint

Ok, here is an experiement Touch of Hemp Chamomile/peppermint soap.

Chamomile is soothing to the skin and hemp is rejuvenating. Peppermint is an astringent and has been use as an antiseptic, hopefully this will produce a soap that is good for oily skin types. Peppermint oil can be an irritant for some people - I am one of them so once the soap has cured we will see how it performs. If it turns out alright, it should be ready in 4- 6 weeks. tomorrow I shall try another batch if soap, but I am almost out of hemp oil.

For people who may have allergic reactions to oils here are the base oils in the touch of hemp they may contain any combination of the following oils depending on the scent. Be aware most oils are made from nuts or kernals, although they can be made from roots, flowers leaves, fruitskin even the bark of trees. IF you haver an allergy to anything ask before you try it. And as always if you react to something stop using it.
