Ingredients:
10 ounces Palm Oil
4 ounces Coconut Oil
2 ounces Olive Oil
2 ounces lye

4 fluid ounces ginger juice and water
1/4 fluid ounce Ginger Essential (optional)
Directions:
1. Take a hand of ginger and run it through a juicer
2. Add the pulp back to the juice and enough water to equal 4 ounces
3. Pour lye into the water (never pour water into lye) - Set aside to cool
4. Melt oils together -set aside to cool
5. When oils are approximately 110 degrees Fahrenheit and lye water is approximately 100 degrees Fahrenheit, gently pour lye into oils (never pour oils into lye)
6. Add juice to mixture, stirring constantly
7. Mix until soap traces
8. Add Essential Oil (optional)
9. Pour into prepared molds and cover with plastic wrap
10. Allow to stand covered and out of drafts for 48 hours
11. Remove form molds and cut as desired

Congratulations! Once you get homemade soaps, you will never go back to store made soaps.
