Hi, i want to make a honey & oatmeal/ porridge oats soap, can i use ordinary honey like clear or set or does it have to be a special type of honey? many thanks maria
 
The last time I used honey, I took just a few tablespoons of water from my batch and microwaved it so it was warm...then added the honey to the warm water and mixed. It was easier to add the honey/water mixture to my oils this way. I've used honey I got from Costco and also have used local honey. Both worked fine.
 
Well, some of the people who I believe are pro (s) have already replied but I tried honey myself in a honey oat soap and work great! I used honey that I bought from the mountains (100% honey)!!!!!

Good luck! Post pictures when done!
 
For Melt & Pour soap, I am not sure how much honey you can add, I *think* that's at 1 tsp per pound of base.
 
Khanjari,
Thanks for this but I'm no guru.
However, soap crafting is lots of fun and I'm happy that people enjoy it so much and can benefit from it!
