Zany, what was the lye you used?? How much? Thanks.

what is theexact recipe for this shaving soap using just KOH the HP method? Thanks.

I love Lemongrass BB Strong, fresh scent and it sticks well. Applejack Peel BB Fresh scent sticks well to my soap. Bay Rum and Lime Blend Bay Rum up front with a hint of Lime. Great in my shaving pucks!

I was very skeptical making and using a HP shampoo bar. My recipe is very similar to yours Lindy and I am very pleasantly surprised how soft it make my hair feel. I usually use the apple cidar vinegar rinse but I don't see too much difference. I love these bars. Thanks. Kathie

I am going to look into buying one of these!! Thank you.

Thanks everyone for the great responses. Definitely not going to use Brita water!! :)

Hello. I usually use distilled water to make my soap. I bought a Brita water filter and was wondering if it is just as good using the filtered water as the distilled water.

WOW, I have some left over lard I want to use. This recipe will be perfect. Using all water as I don't have CM on hand. Thank you! Does the cocoa powder give it any scent at all? And does it "rub off" on your skin??

Lindy, do you use the aloe vera juice in your lotions?? What oil do you substitiute for the aloe juice?? Just curious. Thanks.

Thank you everyone for the opinions on the shaving soap. I did find a recipe that I like and lathers nicely.

I have been to the Silver Fox thread many times. Very nice webpage. Thank you for directing me to the Dapper Dragon. Will definitely go there. As for selling, I never mentioned anything about selling this soap. Actually it is for family and friends.

Thank you for your input. Much appreciated. :)

Thank you for your input.

Shaving Soap I have read thru the threads here about shaving soap. A few seasoned soapers have substituted stearic acid for butters that would equal 20. I have come up with a recipe that the stearic is at 21 (according to the soapcalc). Does this look like it would do for a shaving soap?? CCO...

I found a 4 pack of Better Homes & Garden EO at Walmart. It is the EO scent and coconut oil. Anyone used these before?
