Help! My soap has bumpy things in it!

Often in artisian soap you'll find some exfoliants blended in.  Some common ones include: clay powder, rice flour, ground oatmeal, sugars, salts, pumpkin seeds, poppy seeds, or coffee grounds.  The finely powdered options, like clays, rice and oat flours provide "slip" and are almost always used in shaving soaps.  Medium sized pieces like sugar and salts provide a gentle scrubbiness good for exfoliation and preshave scrubbing.  Large sized bits like coffee grounds, poppy seeds and other seeds provide a firm scrubbing, ideal for heels, hands, elbows and knees.  I perfected a high-lather base formulia, so regardless of the type of exfoliant mixed in, you'll get alot of bubbles and no scratching.
