Eucalyptus Soap Bars

Eucalyptus Soap Bars

Eucalyptus oil is cooling and energising with antibiotic properties. It is also good for joints, circulation and respiratory support as well as being beneficial for the skin.

As an antiseptic oil, Eucalyptus Essential Oil can also aid in the healing of skin ailments, with relieving skin irritations and aiding in wound care while also toning and balancing the skin. It also helps to refresh your mind and give you a boost in energy.

Eucalyptus essential oil is also an oil that needs to be used with caution. As with some oils, this one should not be used around young children, or those that are pregnant or breastfeeding.

This recipe for these soap bars, makes 4 x 1 inch bars.

  • 1 lb goat’s milk melt and pour soap base
