Saltwater Soap

Try this homemade soap recipe if you're looking for a soap that lathers in salt water. Of course, soap doesn't actually need to lather in order to work but for some reason we all seem to prefer it!

This soap is a great choice for those seaside camping trips where fresh water is at a premium. No fragrance, no colour...just pure and natural goodness.
