Exfoliating Foot Soap
This soap has loofah and ground nuts to exfoliate your feet. I also added some peppermint essential oil to soothe tired or achy feet.
You'll need:
1 pound melt and pour soap
1/2 tablespoon ground almonds
1/2 tablespoon aloe vera powder
1/2 teaspoon peppermint essential oil
1/2 teaspoon tea tree essential oil
red mica
4 loofah slices
The ground almonds help scrub your feet to exfoliate more dead skin off of your feet.
I also added some aloe vera powder to moisturize the skin.
Peppermint is cooling on your feet, so it feels great if your feet are tired or ache. Tea tree naturally kills germs.
Cut the soap into 1 inch cubes and microwave in 30 second intervals until melted. Add the ground almonds and stir well.
Add the peppermint and tea tree oil and stir well. If you want to color your soap, add mica now.
If you're using a loofah "loaf", cut it into 1 inch slices and put one in each mold cavity.
Pour the soap over the loofah to fill the mold. Let it sit for a few hours until fully hardened Remove the soap and you can use it right away.
I used the Crafter's Choice round mold. The loofah slices fit perfectly into it.
