How to Make French Green Clay Soap
I’ve always loved making homemade soap—it feels so much more personal and nourishing than anything store-bought. When I first heard about French green clay, I knew I had to give it a try in one of my soap recipes. If you’ve never used it before, you’re in for a treat. French green clay is well-loved in natural skincare because it gently draws out impurities, balances oily skin, and leaves your skin feeling refreshed without being harsh.
Equipment
- Soap mold
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons French green clay
- 1 lb glycerin melt and pour soap base
- 20 drops essential oil optional
Instructions
- Cut up the soap base into small chunks.
- Melt slowly in a glass jar in the microwave in 30-second intervals.
- Once completely melted, add in the French green clay. You can add it as is, or mix it with Isopropyl Alcohol to help it distribute evenly throughout the soap base.
- Then, add in your essential oils. This is optional.
- Pour the mixture into the soap mold and leave it for a few hours or until it has fully hardened.
- And that's it. You can now use your soap as desired.
