Soap with cinnamon essential oil recipes. Master class on making soap with cinnamon with your own hands. Health Benefits of Cinnamon

Making DIY cinnamon soap at home is not such a laborious job. But you will know exactly what your soap is made of, and what additional components it includes.

And besides this, hand-made soap at home can serve as an excellent present that can be prepared for absolutely any holiday. A soap gift made with your own hands and with health care is always better than bought in a store.

Soap Ingredients:

white with transparent soap bases (English production);
dry ground cinnamon;
cosmetic oil Avocado;
fragrant cosmetic fragrance "Coffee with cinnamon";
pigment (dye) for soap brown;
form with decorative recesses for soap;
sticks (wood or glass) for mixing;
pipette for pouring small parts in soap.

The first step in making cinnamon soap with your own hands: pouring the first layer - cinnamon sticks. You need to melt 25 grams of clear soap base.

One drop of brown dye should be added to it. Stir with a mixing stick to disperse the dye throughout the soap base.

And with the help of a pipette, pour the cinnamon sticks. We do it quickly and accurately, because. soap base in a small amount quickly hardens.

So that bubbles do not form on the surface, it must be sprayed with pure alcohol immediately after pouring. So there will be no bubbles, and the adhesion between the layers will be stronger. And wait until the layer hardens well.

The next step is the second: filling the intermediate white layer. We drown 30 grams of a white base. We add a couple of drops of cosmetic coffee-cinnamon fragrance to it.

And pour the base over the already well-cured previous layer. The surface before this, once again sprinkle with alcohol.

After pouring, do not forget to sprinkle with alcohol. And let it freeze.

The third stage is final: pouring the third useful layer. To do this, melt 50 grams of a white soap base, add 5-8 drops of Cinnamon Coffee fragrance, a small spoonful of ground cinnamon, and half a small spoonful of avocado oil to it.

Using a mixing stick, mix everything thoroughly so that there are no lumps.

And pour over the previous well-cured layer sprinkled with alcohol.

And spray with alcohol.

After complete solidification, the soap can be removed from the mold and used.

Such a soap with cinnamon with your own hands will have a warming and tonic effect on the skin, and will moisturize well and give the skin elasticity.

I really liked the recipe for soap with milk and cinnamon. The finished soap is fragrant and very soft.

We will need:

2 pieces of baby soap;
1 - 2 tablespoons of glycerin;
1 tablespoon of liquid vitamin E;
1 tablespoon of almond oil;
4 teaspoons of cinnamon (or so, I added about 3 tablespoons to the “eye” in the soap itself and left 1 spoon for decoration);
150 ml. hot water and a little warm milk (2 - 3 tablespoons).

Rub the pieces of soap on a coarse grater.

Pour the soap shavings into a saucepan, and put it on water bath. Gradually, the soap begins to “melt” and we add water with milk to it.

We take a blender and beat the mass. So, we do not have to stand at the stove for a long time - the blender significantly speeds up the process. Why do I add some milk to the water? So that the soap chips are not like a “paste”, which even a blender cannot beat into a homogeneous mass. If there is no milk, you can add a teaspoon of honey, this will also help to “soften” the mass.

So, beat the soap mass with a blender, gradually adding a small amount of water. The consistency of our mass should resemble thick sour cream. If you add a lot of water, the finished soap will turn out to be very soft, it will simply be impossible to use it.

Remove the saucepan from the water bath and add oil, glycerin, vitamin E and cinnamon to the mass. Cinnamon will immediately turn our soap into a light brown color.

Pour our soap into molds, sprinkle cinnamon powder on top and put in a cool place for a couple of days (so that the soap dries).

As molds, you can use children's dishes, jars of yogurt, cheese and desserts.

Before pouring soap into molds, they must be lubricated with some kind of oil (for example, olive or sunflower) so that we can easily get our soap out of the molds.
