Gentle Hemp & Shea Soap - humblebee&me

Notes:
  1. When measuring oils, set aside 1 tsp of olive oil to pre-disperse TD. Sub refrigerated aloe for water.
  2. Bring soap batter to light trace, then blend in kaolin clay until smooth,
  3. Separate ¼ of the batter and add pre-dispersed TD to get noticeable paler color.
  4. Pour ½ of the dark batter into mold and smooth out, tapping to remove trapped air.
  5. Add the pale layer and smooth out, tapping to remove any trapped air.
  6. Top off with remaining dark batter, tap a final time, then let set up for 15-20 min before sculpting the top into a soaphawk. Sprinkle hemp hearts down the raised center.
  7. Cover & leave for 24-36 hours before removing from mold and slicing from side.
  8. Cure for minimum of 3 weeks.
