Hi! I'm using the BB goat's milk m&p base with BB's Oatmeal, Milk, & Honey FO. I'd like to add cinnamon and oatmeal to the base and wondered how much.

Thoughts?

Hiya Mindy! The general rule to adding ingredients into M&P is 1 TBSP per pound of soap. As for the cinnamon, I would use a very small amount (like a little sprinkling). It has a very strong scent and can be irritating to the skin when used in larger quantities. I hope this helps :)

If the cinnamon is a powder, I would use only a TINY bit, or leave it out all together. It can irritate the skin. As far as oatmeal I agree with tcmatteson. Just be aware that if the soap is still liquid when you pour, the oatmeal might sink to the bottom.

Thanks for the great info!

So, after I posted the question earlier I was looking around on the forum and saw someone mentioned using the tea from a tea bag as an exfoliate (someone had asked about what to use for exfoliates, like cornmeal, poppy seeds, etc.), so when I was making a batch a few minutes ago I put about half of a tea bag of cinnamon herbal tea. It also has hibiscus, citrus peel, chamomile. It really looks pretty and smells really nice. This was my first use of any additives other than fragrance to my soap.

What do you think?

I add Polenta to my Gardener's Soap for exfoliation. It works really well and isn't irritating.
