Pep-U-Up

So refreshing.

The perfect bar for hot and sticky summer days.
And a colorful way to use up some of my soap scraps.
Fragranced with a cooling combo of peppermint, sage, orange, tea tree, lemon, wintergreen, holy basil, clove, may chang and benzoin resin.
Olive oil infused with mint and annatto. Shea butter to soothe sun-parched skin. Coconut and castor oils for mucho lather. A generous dose of cornmeal to scrub away sweat and irritability.  Lard to make it gentle—and last a long time—even if you take a forty five minute shower. Which you'll be tempted to do.
