8 oz White Melt and Pour Soap

1/4 t ground Rosemary, Eucalyptus, Peppermint, Lavender (each)

4 drops each Rosemary, Eucalyptus, Peppermint, Lavender essential oils

 

Chop soap base into small chunks and melt in microwave at 15 second intervals. Swirl soap to move melted chunks and return to the microwave.Repeat for 1.5 minutes or until the soap is melted, but NOT

bubbly. Allow the soap to cool for 1 minute and slowly fold in remaining ingredients (except ground leaves) until well blended. Cool and allow the soap to thicken slightly to suspend leaves ... or they will float. Ladel soap in to 2 4 oz soap molds. Allow to harden 2 hours and move to the freezer for 30 minutes. Pop out and bring to room temperature. Move to plastic container or bags to maintain fragrance.

 

I use these bars in the shower with the steam to allow the vapors help to relieve tension, common and sinus headaches. The peppermint is also soothing when headache is accompanied with nausea.
