The best way to calm your mind and soothe your nerves is to take a relaxing hot bath. After a long and tedious day when all you want is to crash out on the bed, taking a hot shower makes all the difference and re-energises you!

While taking a bath, instead of using the commercial and mass-produced bathing soaps, you should opt for homemade fragrant and nourishing soaps. Yes, you can make soaps at home and that too with just 3 easily available ingredients- Essential oils, soap base and natural ingredients like lemon wedges, orange peel etc. 

Essential oils

To pamper yourself and to smell absolutely divine after coming out of the shower, adding essential oils to your soap is essential, pun intended! Go for relaxing and stress releasing essential oils like lavender, rose, lime etc. 

Soap base

If you are making soap for the first time, to get you started, going for a soap base is the best way to easily start the process without having to make your soap from scratch. 

Natural ingredients

To make the most of your homemade soap and to give it that special touch, add some natural ingredients like lemon wedges, orange peel or rose petals to it.

Method

Take the soap base and roughly cut it into small pieces. Melt the pieces in a double boiler and keep stirring it to avoid burning. 

Take the essential oils and add a few drops of it to the melted soap base.

Finally, add the natural ingredients like the rose petals or the lemon slices to your soap and pour the mix into the moulds. Let the soap set for 5-7 hours.
