I am new at soaping. I just used the lye calculator and used the oils that I have. I just would like some expert advice on my recipe.
Castor Oil 20.00g 5.00%
Coconut Oil (76 Degrees) 40.00g 10.00%
Olive Oil 80.00g 20.00%
Palm Oil 40.00g 10.00%
Rapeseed Oil 40.00g 10.00%
Shortening (Vegetable) 80.00g 20.00%
Sunflower Seed Oil 100.00g 25.00%
6% (Superfat)
Lye (Sodium Hydroxide) Amount 52.508g
Grams of liquid recommended 132.00g (coconut milk)
Yields 584.51g
Does this recipe sound good to you? I would like a nice hard soap bar that cures in 4-6 weeks with a good lather and is also moisturizing. I like dove brand soap so I am looking to make something similar to that. If you have any suggestions, comments, advice or even another recipe all together, Please let me know. Thank you! <3 :Kitten Love:
