Cambra Soap Company

On Easter day this year, I was inspired by the beautiful weather and the ocean and wanted to make something appropriate to fit my mood while the youngest would be napping.  The boys and I walked a block down the street to the Atlantic Ocean and while they played in the sand for a bit, Daddy collected some water from the ocean, trying to get as little sand in the gallon jug as possible.  While doing so, I seemed to attract some rogue waves that basically left me soaked from the neck down.  We came home and I filtered the water through a coffee filter and then used that water in place of distilled water to mix with the sodium hydroxide for a new batch of soap.  Who knows.  I might be onto something and start making more of my soap with the water only steps from our home...

Lime is one of my favorite essential oils and blending with just the right amount of Lavender allows this soap to be used by anyone.  Men often will shy away from lavender, but used sparingly in this recipe allows for the Lime to pop through and give you a fresh sensation in the shower.  Poppy seeds have been added as exfoliate and the color has been left neutral, taking on hues of the Lime essential oil and olive oil.

Base & Carrier oils: Coconut, Olive, Palm, Soy, Avocado, Castor and Sweet Almond.

Each generous bar weighs between 4 and 5 ounces.
