Calendula Soap

Recently, my mom made a new type of soap. It has calendula extract in it!

Calendula, also called the pot marigold, is a pretty yellow flower that has one of the longest histories of healing. It has a very fragrant scent, and is known for its medical assets. Its oil has soothing healing effects on the skin, and is known to help irritated skin, acne issues and more.


Also, not only that, we tried out a new layering technique with purple. It looks like an aurora, sort of, so we dubbed the soap "Purple Aurora". Such a pretty name... :D

And, we stamped it! It now says "Handmade Soap". We got the stamps from Taiwan. My grandma, who is also into soap-making, sent it to us. We got alot of other cute stamps. :)


Ingredients:
3 oz Sweet Almond Oil
3 oz Castor Oil
10 oz Coconut oil
8 oz Olive Oil
8 oz Palm oil
4 oz Safflower oil
2 drops Calendula extract
2 drops Gardenia scent
2 drops Lavender scent

Buy me lovely soap!

EDITED

If you want to buy some soap, please come to me at school. Here are the details of purchase:

Soap will be about $3-$5 per bar, depending on the quality of the oil. The melt and pour soap will be a bit cheaper, about $2-$3 per bar. If you want special wrapping when you want to give it to someone for a special occasion (see below) there will be additional 50 cents. But its all worth it! Look back at my previous posts for some soapy awesomeness!

We make soap for all occasions, such as Valentines day . More to be added!!

So, its not too much, right?

Also, not sure about shipping and all, but I'm getting ahead of myself. *laughs* When someone from the other side of the world wants soap, I'll decide then. (and give a discount for being first!)

Talking about discounts, 25 cents off for whomever helps me on hw! JK. That'll come later on.

Take care!

Soap Wrapping

Since our soup was such a success, my mom decided to wrap them uniquely. Now
they are ready for gifting.
This is a small bag we found at Daiso, a japanese store.
My brother found a design in a book.
Don't you just love the wrapping paper? It is Japanese styled (again from Daiso) and has pretty flowers on it!
This is my personal favorite. I love the natural looking ribbon!
Here are all of the wrapping designs.
