Black Pepper and Grapefruit with Ground Black Pepper & Fullers Earth Powder

I love this soap. The recipe is one of the absolute best you'll ever find for a cold process soap. You may need some help fighting your way through the insane amount of bubbles to get out of the shower.
 
The black pepper and grapefruit essential oils are blended to make this scent and the ground black pepper adds to that, as well as acting as a gentle exfoliant for your skin.
 
Fuller's Earth powder offers several skin benefits. It's highly absorbent, making it excellent for drawing out excess oil, impurities, and toxins from the skin, which is particularly beneficial for oily and acne-prone skin types. The clay also improves circulation, gently exfoliates dead skin cells, and can help tighten pores and tone the skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and clarified.
 
Other ingredients and benefits of using them are detailed below:
 
Rose Water hydrates and soothes irritation while balancing pH and controlling oil. It provides antioxidant protection for the skin.
 
Shea Butter offers deep moisture with anti-inflammatory properties. It contains vitamins A and E for skin repair and improves elasticity.
 
Sweet Almond Oil is a lightweight moisturiser rich in vitamin E, which provides UV protection. It helps reduce the appearance of scars and dark circles.
 
Castor Oil is antimicrobial and deeply moisturising, particularly for very dry skin. It may help reduce acne-causing bacteria.
 
Responsibly Sourced Palm Oil is rich in antioxidants and provides moisturising and anti-ageing benefits.
 
Olive Oil is high in vitamins and antioxidants that nourish dry skin, though it can clog pores for some skin types.
 
Coconut Oil has antibacterial properties and is intensely moisturising.
