homemade lemon ginger green tea soap

[0penheartsurge.livejournal.com]

I've read that green tea and citrus oils can be beneficial to the skin, so I made a couple soap bars from a recipe I created.

Lemon Ginger Green Tea Soap

1/4 of moisturizing clear glycerin soap by Life of the Party Essentials

1 teabag of Yogi lemon ginger green tea

the zest of a lemon

1 - Open tea packet in bowl and grate in lemon zest.
2 - Mix, pressing with a spoon to release a bit of the natural oils.
3 - Melt soap base down for less than 2 minutes.
4 - When base is melted, mix in tea and lemon zest mixture.
5 - Pour into mold of choice and let cool.

Makes two 3 inch long oval soaps.
