Chamomile-Lavender Herbal Dream Soap


I made a new soap today.
Oooo Baby. This soap has a very nice combination of organically grown chamomile and Lavender essential oil, with a generous dose of Jasmine, Rose and Sandalwood essential oils. And you can’t have chamomile without a bit of honey.


All of this is blended into my favorite Olive Oil soap recipe (with coconut and palm oils). Grapefruit seed extract and honey act as natural preservatives. Chamomile is perhaps the world's most soothing herb; it can be used to treat skin inflammation and sunburns .


Chamomile is relaxing as a wash or compress for skin inflammations, sunburn, burns, and added to bath for relaxing tired, achy muscles and feet, and softening the skin.


So use it to bathe or shower, then sit and relax with a cup of tea and ponder your accomplishments of the day.
