I believe many women like roses. I do too. I like the smell of the roses and that's why I thought I would add some rosy flavor into the soap. Shower can be romantic in this case, isn't it?!
One special thing about the soap is I used the rose infused olive oil. The oil, however, does not smell really rosy. But the essence of the roses are released into the oil, and this makes the skin soothing and softening.
Like the honey oatmeal soap, I used milk in the rose soap. Milky soap makes the skin moist. I also made some design in this soap by using the red clay powder to create the marble patterns. This rose milk soap look nice, smell nice and will treat your skin nice.
Ingredients:
coconut oil, olive oil (rose infused), palm oil, avocado oil, canola oil, sunflower oil, shea butter, red clay powder, fragrance oil (rose), milk, and lye

Honey oatmeal milk soap
In this soap, instead of using water I used milk to dissolve to lye. And that's simply because milky soap has the function to protect the skin from being dry. Honey has the same function as well. Also, I added some ground oatmeal so that by using this soap, the skin would be exfoliated gently.
The smell of the lavender and lemon grass essential oil go well with soap too. I'd recommend this honey oatmeal soap to people have drier skin. It will keep your skin moist.

Costumized: Breast milk soap
We all know how wonderful the breast milk is. Breast milk is nutritious and it helps improve the immune system of the baby. Mothers are encourage to breastfeed their kids if possible. However, what can you do with the extra breast milk?! Of course you can throw it, but you would feel it's a waste. Then how about using the breast milk into the soap?!
Breast milk soaps are getting lots of attentions and popularity in Asia as the soap is gentle for both parents and the babies. Even newborns, whose skins are more sensitive, can use the breast milk soaps. No essential oil or fragrant oil is added in the breast milk soap because babies will be using the soaps. Some herbs powder may be added and it's based on the request.
One more important thing, breast milk is personal not commercial. Using the soaps that are made from other mom's breast milk is not wise. I do carefully handle the soaps and clearly make soaps with dates and other information. Please do not worry.
Last but not least, I'd like to thank my dear frien,who delivered a cute girl last September, for giving me her breast milk (waving HI to Yu-Ying). In her breast milk soaps, I added some Chinese herb powder, which has the function of calming the kids.
