Today I made 3 slabs of Rosemary Mint handmade soap which incorporates ground peppermint leaves for color and texture.   You can get a “green” color in your soap by adding herbs like peppermint, spearmint, parsley and dill to your soap pot but these herbs will tend to grow a orange halo around them in the finished soap and will also turn a brownish tan color instead of a nice natural green.    Not so cool looking to me.  As a matter of fact I think it is down right ugly.   I’d like to share a tip.  Add Vitamin E T-50 to your soap pot prior to adding your herbs.  It will keep your herbs looking good in the final soap.  I promise.
