I use 100* aloe extract dissolved in water in my soaps and lotions. That or aloe juice go in the water phase of lotion making and as such you don't sub it for any oil.
I recently made a super thick lotion with fresh aloe juice from my own little plant and used the max recommended level of preservative, just to be sure. It's holding up fine after about 6 weeks.
 
I’ve not tried it for HP soap, but I use it at 50% of the required liquid in all my CP soap. I mix the lye in 50% of the liquid (water) and allow it to cool to room temp then combine the Lye water with the Aloe Vera liquid. I do like the resulting soap, it seems to have a smooth feel to the lather.
