Homemade Soaps, Natural, Vegan, Southern Magnolia

 'Southern Magnolia'
Large 4.5+ oz. bars

I've had so much fun choosing the fragrances to use when making this spring's HomemadeSoapnSuch vegan soap collection! I've got several florals, some fruits, along with woodsy, spicy, and herbal scents. They're all beautiful, have a lovely lather, and are gentle and moisturizing to your skin!

We use all natural base oils, along with botanicals and quality fragrance oils and essential oils. No animal products are used in HomemadeSoapnSuch natural, vegan soaps, and we use only natural colorants - no oxides.


...but it still hasn't adopted a convincing Southern accent.
We're working on it.

Tools of the Trade

It's amazing how much space all my soap-making tools require! It's not just a matter of storing the goggles, apron, and rubber gloves, but also the various types of oils (solid and liquid), lye, and distilled water. Then there are the different sizes and types of molds, stainless steel pans, towels, knives, thermometers, and plastic scrapers.

I love stirring in the botanicals I've dried and the essential oils. The whole house smells wonderful as this caustic (yes, caustic) mix gets poured into a lined wood mold. There it will stay for 24 hours, after which time I will unmold the soap and cut it into bars.

The soap loses its caustic property as a chemical reaction between the lye water and oils takes place over the next 6 to 8 weeks. That curing process renders a fine-grained, fragrant, and luxurious bar of soap. What's so lovely about handcrafted soaps is that they contain none of the common chemical additives and preservatives that are found in most big name-brand soaps, so they're kinder to your skin.
