Does anyone know how to make lavender with honey soap?
Everything's on the internet, you just have to know where to look!





You could look up just a basic "how to make soap", then add your own scents (honey and lavender). Here's a website for lavender soap, it wouldn't be too much more difficult to add some honey scent to it. http://www.soapcrafters.com/recipes_scra...

Milk and Honey Soap - Lavender Scented


48 ounces shortening (Crisco type - 3# can)


22 ounces coconut oil


16 ounces olive oil


24 oz. cold water


12 oz. lye crystals


Temperatures: around 100 degrees





After incorporating the lye solution with the oils, add:





12 oz. can evaporated milk, warmed (for lighter colored soap with firmer texture, you can use only 6 oz. evaporated milk and increase the water by 2-4 ounces)


1/4 cup honey, dissolved into milk (for a lighter color and less tendency to separate, you can cut this back to 1 T.)





At light trace, mix in:


1 oz of Lavender Oil or essential oil





or you could purchase a soap base with honey from a craft store such as Micheal's and add desired amount of lavender oil or essential oil -





you choose


good luck, be safe and have fun!
