    How to figure how much oil for mold.

    I put the water in a measuring cup and count the ounces until my mold is full. I know that 1 pound of soap is 16 ounces oil + 6 ounces water + 2.23 ounces lye give exactly 3 cups of batter (24 ounces) I mix in my pyrex 4 cups.

    Deodorant with flower water

    I add E-Wax, it emulsifies the oil and is not greasy, When I rinse my fingers, it's like a lotion.

    Favorite soap for personal use?

    The best way to get a mild soap is to add ingredients. I make HP one pound in the microwave and add after cook, Goat/coconut or Buttermilk powder diluted in 1 tablespoon of water and 1 tea of honey, sometimes yogurt.

    Not at all, I do the same thing for other people's recipes. I took a screenshot of the Madison recipe, in my next order I will buy Magnesium Hydroxide because I only have Magnesium Chloride.
