This face soap is for younger skin types and helps clear up the problems young people can have.
There are three helpful features in this soap. One is that the superfat is low. The other is the (not so) secret ingredient Tea Tree. The third being the lovely camomile Tea Tree is anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and an antiseptic. Camomile is antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antiseptic. It also has the ability to neutralize skin irritants.
The soap is easy to make with the cold process or hot process as preferred, and there are no advanced technics, so even young adults can make if they are familiar with the safety instructions. Find them here
