Avocado Soap

[dlewis17]

I've never made soap using fresh avocado or avocado oil. Could someone please send me a recipe or tell me how to add it to my recipe? Do I need to add more color to avocado soap? Also what fragrance or EO should I add?

I stick blend a half of a fresh avocado into my oils (recipe of about 900 grams of oils). It provides some natural color (pale olive green) and extra SF. I use avocado oil as one of my base oils too - at around 25% of the total oil weight.

I add one mashed avocado to my avocado soap, I weigh the avocado mash and deduct that amount from my water. I add heavy cream to the mix sometimes too, makes a fantastic bar of soap.

My hubby's favorite soap is 30% avocado oil. I haven't tried a to mash in a fresh one though - that sounds tempting! The oil alone doesn't really add color.

My base recipe has 20% avocado oil in it and have gone up to 25% at times.
