I am not sure how to describe this. I have been making soap for 2 years. Mostly with the same recipe. One batch my husband and I both have found that when rinsing it off it feels like we have hard water again. Does this make sense? Normally with soft water and my soap there is a slippery feel when you rinse. He commented on it and I noticed it as well. Not necessarily at the beginning of the bar though, I noticed it about halfway through, so did my husband. The only difference in that particular bar would be the FO (new one I've never used) and also Jojoba beads, I added those as an exfoliant. This is the first test of a soap with Jojoba beads. Could it be the FO? The beads? Any advice?
My recipe is
Lard 50%
Coconut oil 30%
Olive Oil 15% (sometimes pomace, sometimes light or evoo, depending on if I want a faster trace)
Castor oil 5%
Thank you for your help!
