This episode was all about soap making at home, and I was lucky to have Kim on the show today as my co-host.

We talk about how we got into soap making, the basic process, some early failures and successes, safety suggestions, and some advanced soap making techniques that we use.

I also mentioned a few links during the show;

* We bought our first kit at Simply Natural Soap Making Supplies

* We make our own wooden soap moulds; read about them at this post – Making My Soap Box

* Our recipe and soap making video tutorial,

* and our upcoming soap making workshops over at Little Green Workshops

We have been using our own soap now for over four years, and I even wash my hair with it as well.  It is a great moisturising bar that doesn’t tighten your skin after washing.

Kim and I love our natural soap, with no added nasties.  We always source sustainable ingredients, and only use vegetable oils in our soap.  Not only is it good for us, but it is good for the environment.
