Savon de Marseille
Dumbed down Savon de Marseille from Martha's TV show. I melted a couple of bars of unscented glycerin soap in the microwave and stirred in some Burt's Bees Green Goddess Clay Mask (which they don't seem to carry anymore). It clumped somewhat, but a lot of stirring and pressing the bigger lumps against the side of the dish seemed to help. I molded it in a little remekin lined with saran wrap, which worked pretty well except that the bar has wrinkles all over it. If I weren't just making it for myself, I would find a better mold (Martha recommends milk cartons.)
