Hello everyone, I have recently begun to make HP soap again and have a few questions. Upon saponification, does the soap retain any of the base oil’s properties such as lather, moisturizing benefits, etc., or do they disappear? If you want to add castor oil for lather benefits, is it best to add as a base oil which would be saponified, or as a superfatting oil after the cook? I apologize if this question has been addressed, but I could not find posts on this subject. Thank you for your brilliance!
