This Soap Bar Is Made With Emeralds And Gold For It's Skin Properties, But It Is Almost Too Pretty To Use It

I am an soap and candle artisan and researched the effects of gemstones and edible pure gold on skin and psyche for sometime. I was commissioned this past month to create a special gift, and was inspired by gemstones and gold to create a soap using these precious ingredients.

First the rough emeralds were crushed to get to the right consistency, essential oils were added: Fennel and Passion Fruit, the gold leafs were the final touch but very tricky to work with as it tends to melt when in touch with skin.
