Dragon's Blood Egg Soap

I made this soap using whole eggs that came from free range chickens. The chickens in question can be seen roaming around my landlords spacious farmland pecking happily at the ground.

I added the yokes to my vegetable oils ( coconut, olive oil, and soybean oil) and the whites to my lye solution and made a hot processed soap. I then hand-milled the soap a day later with grapeseed oil, pureed strawberries (for the alpha-hydroxy acids which lend a mild exfoliating aspect), cream, and beeswax. I also added a good dose dragon's blood powder.

I added essential oils of myrrh, rosewood, grapefruit and a little bit of clove and decorated the top with pink cochous, juniper berries and pieces if frankincense resin . The scent is very heavy on the dragons blood with the other oils mildly accenting it.

They weight approximately 70 grams.

Since this is an all natural soap, you can even use it to wash your hair - I know I do! Egg soap is especially awesome for this.

 Natural soap is more beneficial than your typical store bought soap because its retains its glycerin and other beneficial properties. Egg soap produces some the richest lather you will ever experience and makes skin silky smooth.

Grapeseed oil is high in antioxidants which helps to keep free radicals from damaging skin. "The flavanoids contained in grapeseed oil can inhibit allergic reactions, and may help with fighting skin problems such as eczema or psoriasis. It also penetrates the skin quickly and has almost no odor, and is therefore usually non-irritating."

Beeswax is anti-inflammatory, antibacterial & antiviral making it an excellent skin healer. beeswax is not only an emollient but humectant as well, "drawing moisture to the skin and sealing it in". It also creates a protective barrier on the skin.

An Ode To New Zealand - All Natural VEGAN Soap - Very Healing

I moved to New Zealand from the States on January 11, 2012 - My birthday! I made this soap to celebrate my one year anniversary of living in this awesome country.

This hot processed soap was made with coconut, olive, and soybean oils with a generous handful of native fuchsia flowers blended into it at trace. I then hand-milled the soap a day later with grapeseed oil.

I also added essential oils of maunka, lemon, and tea tree. The scent is slightly earthy, clean, and sweet. To finish it off I decorated with manuka branches that I gathered from a hike and lavender  petals.

 

 Since this is an all natural soap, you can even use it to wash your hair - I know I do!

They weight approximately 175 grams.

Awesome for people afflicted with facial and body acne. Also good as a anti bacterial hand soap to have at the sink.
