- Measure out the Almond Milk carefully to avoid any spillage and then set aside.
- Separately, pour your Oil Mix into a heat resistant mixing container. Combine room temperature Lye Water with the oil mix.

- Add in Almond Milk into the container and mix everything using a whisk until milk & oil are evenly dispersed throughout the soap mixture.
- Prepare your silicone mold. Spray with Rubbing Alcohol to sanitise mold. Next, pour in soap mixture into each cavity. Pour carefully, soap might still be warm.
- Sprinkle on some almonds on top of each soap. Then, leave soap for 24 to 48 hours to harden.

- Whenever you feel ready, gently push soap out from the mold.
