Sunscreen & Mosquito Repellent Soap

First up I have to let you know  I have been working on this for  4 months now  to perfect this  to have both UV Protection and be Mosquito Repellent   This soap is not that hard to make and I hope you will enjoy it 

This soap makes a great face soap, moisturizes and smells great  Safe for kids too and those with sensitive skin. This soap is gentle enough to use everyday, it cleanses and softens the skin.

I know I could prolly Sell this and make a ton of money but to be honest  money has no meaning to me
I would Rather Show you how to do it yourself and empower you with knowledge  how to make it

Directions

Shred the soap over a bowl and set aside.

Remove the pan from the heat and add the rice bran and add all the essential oils, stirring until the bran is evenly distributed.
