In my soap-making odyssey, sweet almond oil was my first "fancy" oil experiment. The silky feeling it contributes to soap lather amazed me, as did its nice, light, moisturizing effect. I'm a convert now! It's a good choice for winter weather, when you risk freeze-drying your skin when you wash, before going out. Sweet almond oil absorbs quickly into your skin, without any lingering greasiness. To get the moisturizing benefit, just lightly rinse off the lather, lest you wash all the goodness down the drain. Pat dry, and don't rub, with a towel. Your invisible armor is on! As the name suggests, sweet almond oil is pressed from sweet almonds; the kind you eat. Should you be allergic to tree nuts, you might prefer to use soap enriched with avocado oil, instead (blog post about that, in the works). Enjoy the benefits of sweet almond oil soap with the Lovely Lavender and Innocent Allure bars, available from this very website. You can also try the Shabby Chic bar, available at On The Fly Country Market in Bralorne. #almondoilsoap #handmadesoap
