Here is what you need to make these essential oil melt and pour oatmeal soap bars:
Instructions for DIY handmade oatmeal soap bars:
1. Cut up your melt and pour soap base into small pieces. You are going to aim to cut them roughly the same size so they melt evenly.

3. Once fully melted, add ten drops of Marseille's Remedy Traditional Oil Blend to your melted soap base, and gently stir.
4. Sprinkle your oatmeal into the bottom of your soap mold and then carefully pour enough of your melted soap base to cover the oatmeal.
5. Let your first layer of soap slightly harden. This will keep your oatmeal from floating up into the bar of soap.
The oatmeal is going to add a beautiful touch to these handmade soap bars, so you are going to want to be able to see it clearly.
6. Pour the rest of your melted soap into the mold on top of your hardened oatmeal soap section and let fully harden.
7. Once your soap is cured and hard, go ahead and pop it out of the mold, and trim any edges off with a pairing knife.
Voila! Look how beautiful these DIY oatmeal soap bars turned out. These would make a great little handmade gift for someone.
These homemade soap bars smell absolutely amazing and are nourishing and moisturizing for the skin. And just look how beautiful they are!
