Rosemary Mint Shampoo Bars Nerdy Wife

https://thenerdyfarmwife.com/shampoo-bars-crock-pot-method/ If you’d like to use a light rosemary tea instead of distilled water, place about 1 tablespoon fresh or dried rosemary into a heat proof canning jar and pour 11 ounces of simmering hot water over the herbs. Steep just until the water starts turning color then strain and chill. (Herbal teas must be chilled or completely cool before using in soap to avoid overheating.) Rosemary tea can affect the final color, especially if the tea is strong dark brown, so keep it light while infusing! If you’re pregnant, have hypertension or epilepsy, rosemary essential oil should be avoided or used with care under the supervision of a health care professional. You can omit the rosemary essential oil completely, or replace it with lavender essential oil.
