Poppy and pollen soap
Formula: 86579 Difficulty level: beginner Shelf life: min 6 months

Phase Ingredients Total 90 gr
A M&P white soap base 82 gr
A Poppy seeds 3 gr
A Polyflora pollen 2,5 gr
A Aromatic pineapple extract 2,5 gr (80 drop)

Melt the soap base in a water bath, cut into cubes of about 1cm, in a heat-resistant container, which can be a Berzelius glass or a stainless steel cup/bowl.

After melting add the pollen and stir slowly until it dissolves a little. Remove the container from the water bath and stir in the apricot extract.

Add the poppy and stir, waiting a little until it begins to solidify, then pour into the mould. Leave the soapy mould on a flat surface. After approx. 4 hours remove and leave to dry until the next day in as dry an environment as possible. After 24 hours of preparation, the soap can be used.

If the environment in which the soap is stored has higher humidity, dew and a gelatinous layer may appear on the surface. This is normal for natural melt & pour soaps.
To avoid this phenomenon, it is advisable to wrap the soap in cling film or to store it in an airtight container.

A delicious, mildly exfoliating soap enriched with nourishing pollen, flavoured with the scent of ripe apricots.

Hello Adriana, Yes, you can make the substitution. We recommend the dosage of 1-2% per 100 gr soap.

Hello! Can I replace the aromatic extract with a few drops of essential oil? e.g. ylang-ylang? Thank you!

Hello! Interesting idea, I haven't practically done anything like this, possibly try it on a small test amount.

Good evening! Is it possible to combine olive oil soap base (castile soap recipe) in 1:1 ratio with M&P soap base when both are in liquid phase?

Hello! You can add marigold extract, maximum 0.3 gr, and you can remove the apricot aromatic extract, in which case the soap will no longer be scented.
