This is going to be one of my top Christmas gifts this year and also some for me. Super great idea for that someone who you can not think what to give.Everyone uses soaps and think how special it will be when you make it for that someone. You can use a scent that you know they will like or just use the shea butter or coca butter melt and pour soap bases or any other they offer. The only problem I will have is deciding which soap to make. Great gift idea. Anyone make homemade soap for gifts?
