Orange and Cherry Herbal Soap Scrub with Olive Oil, and Oatmeal

After making two kinds of Herbal Soap Scrub with Green Apple, Olive Oil, Oatmeal and Thyme, followed by Herbal Soap Scrub with Orange, Olive Oil, and Oatmeal, I decided to mix two essences on my third try. Cherry is too strong a scent for me so instead of making a pure cherry herbal soap, I also put in some orange essence and it came out perfectly!

Herbal Soap Scrub with Orange, Olive Oil, and Oatmeal

After my Herbal Soap Scrub with Green Apple, Olive Oil, Oatmeal and Thyme, the next batch of herbal soap scrub I did was one with orange essential oil. Apparently, when I matched the scent with the color, I didn't use enough that my soap turned yellow when it finally dried. Well, at least now I know how I can produce the color yellow with glycerin as a soap base. I was in a hurry to make this batch because I only had an hour for lunch break before I resumed with my daily work.
