Oatmeal Soap
Makes One Bar
This soap is great for facial and body cleansing. Also relieves dry,
itchy skin.
14-ounce bar Castile soap shredded
1/4 cup dried oats
1/4 cup distilled water
1 tablespoon dried chamomile
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon jojoba oil
Shred the Castile soap and set aside.
Grind the oats into fine powder in a food processor or coffee grinder and set aside.
In a saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat and place the chamomile and rosemary in a tea strainer in the water, letting it steep for thirty minutes to create a strong herbal infusion.
Remove the herbs from the water and reheat to a boil. Turn the heat down to low and add the shredded Castile soap a little at a time while stirring.
Continue stirring until mixture forms a sticky mass. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the oat powder and jojoba oil until evenly distributed.
Pack the soap into a mold and let it set for four hours or until
hardened..... Enjoy!!

For thousands of years, up until 1883, hemp was the world's largest agricultural crop, from which the majority of fiber, fabric, soap, lighting oil, paper, incense, and medicines
were produced.
