We prepare: New Year's soap with aroma of a fir-tree and orange

Willy-nilly each of you thinks of New Year's gifts for the family. And I am not an exception! But this time I decided not to test the nerves in search of interesting bagatelles in the shops which brought together hundreds of buyers and huge turns. I found a different way of a way out. My kitchen from now on turned into the whole laboratory on production of natural srubs, lip balms, masks for hair and, of course, fragrant soap. About stages of preparation of the last I would like to share with you.

So, represent a master class in production of soap with natural vegetable and essential oils and the crushed flowers of a camomile medicinal on the basis of remnants of a cake of soap. Let and not absolutely attractive on coloring, but perfectly smelling piece of soap is necessary on temper to everything, but especially to those who during cold weather suffer from excessive dryness and peeling. This product in a moment will purify skin, will saturate each section and will shroud in really New Year's aroma of a fresh fir-tree and orange.

As well as in last experiments, I did not begin to be guided by the recipes submitted on open spaces of network, having chosen components on the discretion. And you can arrive the same way.

Were a part of my soap:

• Remnants of a cake of soap – I think, they are available in each house. I do not use lumpy manufacturing soap, but occasionally I buy for house needs.

• Oil of mango and a coco – the unique products presented by the nature, and differing in rich structure. They are designed to restore water balance, to intensify production of collagen and elastin, to smooth small and deep wrinkles, to eliminate pigmentation (including senile), to normalize lipidic exchange and to improve skin breath. Oils of mango and a coco are ideal for all parts of a body, but especially for hands. They increase elasticity and elasticity, heal cracks and cuts, eliminate dryness and peeling.

• Oil of almond stones – a component which can brag of the high content of vitamin E or as it is called still, a youth elixir. Besides, almond oil contains a large amount of irreplaceable amino acids and minerals. It differs in the moistening, restoring, softening and anti-inflammatory properties. Oil in a moment removes irritations, reddenings and inflammations, endowing a cover with freshness, moisture content and elasticity.

• Essential oil of a fir-tree – the source of joy and positive emotions casting memories of New Year's holidays. Treats the category of antitraumatic means, with ease copes with bruises, hypostases, hematomas and cuts. Besides, essential oil of a fir-tree improves a condition of a cover, increases its protective properties and gives it fresh appearance.

• Essential oil of orange – not less bright representative of the fragrant world. Gives feeling of cheerfulness, restores forces and adjusts on a positive. Especially oil of orange is effective in fight for beautiful, elastic and smooth skin.

• Dry flowers of a camomile – in my case crushed. Usually I use this product as the compresses eliminating hypostases and for own calm.

Besides the listed components, you will need molds, the glass capacity, a knife (or a grater), a spoon and a pan.

About preparation washed step by step:

• We rasp remnants of a cake of soap or a knife. This time I took two colors of remnants of a cake of soap – saturated pink and beige on the 2nd tablespoons with the hill. We put the crushed soap in glass capacity, we put on a water bath, we add to a jar of a little hot water and, periodically stirring slowly, we wait for transformation of firm weight into plastic consistence.

• We add to plastic weight on 1 teaspoon of oil of mango and a coco. They are solid oils, therefore they need to be given to a liquid form.

• We take out capacity, we add 1 teaspoon of oil of almond stones, we mix.

• We add a teaspoon of the crushed camomile flowers, we mix.

• We add to weight 2 drops of essential oils of orange and a fir-tree. In soap both notes – fir-tree and orange are traced. It is incredibly fantastic union!

• We spread ready weight in a form and we send to the refrigerator before hardening.

• We take out the stiffened soap from a form and we leave to be dried.

At once I will make a reservation, using this soap, you do not receive plentiful foam, it will practically not be. But it purifies skin greatly, reserving pleasant aroma, feeling of moisture content and pleasant emotions!

And taking an opportunity, I would like to express huge gratitude Alushta efiromaslichny state farm plant for quality vegetable and essential oils! Thanks to them, I managed to try in the new sphere – preparation of own cosmetics which will please my relatives in the near future!
