Servings: 5 Soaps
Equipment
- Sharp serrated knife
- Cutting Board
- Double Boiler
- 6-cavity round silicone soap mold

Ingredients
- 1 pound melt and pour soap base
- 1-2 natural loofah sponges

Instructions
- Cut the whole loofah into strips that will fit neatly into each cavity, then place them in the silicone mold.
- Chop the melt and pour soap into cubes, then place it in the top of the double boiler. Heat the soap over medium-low until it's completely melted and clear, stirring frequently.
- Once it's completely melted, add several drops of soap colorant. Stir, then continue adding more until you get your desired color intensity.
- Next, add essential oils until you get your desired strength of scent and stir to combine.
- Immediately pour the melted soap into the silicone mold over the loofah pieces until there's enough soap to just cover them.
- Allow the soap to cool and dry completely, then pop your loofah soaps out of the silicone mold. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Place your wrapped homemade soap bars in a mason jar and use them one at a time in the shower or gift them to a friend.
