Rosebud Hibiscus
Recipe Instructions
Add 1 tsp of salt to the distilled water before adding lye
It calls for 1 tsp for each 38 ounces, but I don't want to over-do it. It can cause crumbling and make it harder to cut.
Add rosebuds to the oils while cooking.
add rose clay to the oils before cooking process and a little with the essential oils.
18 ml grapefruit; 6 ml neroli; 9 ml geranium; 50 drops peppermint; 1 ml ylang ylang
