I could not find my apricot seeds today so this is made with raspberry seeds which are a bit larger. This soap is made with a ton of Kokum Butter. Kokum Butter has been obtained from the fruit of the Indian tree (Garcinia indica). Its triglyceride composition is uniform and consists of up to 80% of stearic-oleic-stearic (SOS) triglycerides.
This is a very popular scent.

Coriander Peppermint
Wow, I have not made soap for over 7 weeks. Well, I made a new one today Coriander Peppermint, similar to Rainforest blend by Aveda. I made this with bentonite clay which is described as:
Bentonite clay (a combination of montmorillonite and volcanic ash) is a highly absorbent clay best suited for oily skin. It is a fine powder, odorless and tasteless, insoluble in water, swelling to about eight times its weight when water is added. Uses: Suspending and colloidal agent in the manufacture of soap, also used in cosmetics and directly on the body as a mask. Bentonite powder is added to soap at trace to help oily skin or as an additive in shaving soap.
So this should lather a bunch and be great for oily skin.
