Lavender & Lemongrass EO (Nurture Oils Base)

Notes:
  • Use 50/50 Lemongrass and Lavender EO
  • Simi has 2 oz Lemongrass, 2 oz Lavender in a similar recipe.
  • Simi's soap has calendula petals and lavender buds on top. If using micas, maybe dash the lavender buds with a little purple mica so they don't turn ugly brown?
  • Mica idea - purple and a pale yellow or leaf /grass green?
    • Mostly Purple & Green with a LITTLE bit of yellow.
    • If feeling ambitious, maybe add very bottom layer of brown with African Black crumbles - will hold the EO nicely.
