helping you find an oatmeal soap recipe

This page is dedicated to oatmeal soap recipes using the cold process soap making method. Oatmeal is a great natural additive to soaps.You will use rolled oats, not instant for these recipes.

BENEFITS

  • Oatmeal is a cleanser.
  • Oatmeal is a great natural exfoliant that can be easily added to your soaps.
  • It has moisturizing properties and is known to calm itchy skin.

To make your oatmeal soap recipe you can grind the oatmeal in a food processor, silver bullet or coffee grinder. Leave oatmeal coarser for a more exfoliating feel or grind the oatmeal longer for a finer substance which will make a smoother soap.
