I am working on a deer tallow soap recipe. I would like some opinions on this one.
30% deer
30% CO
25% RBO
10% SAO
5% Castor
I get this from soap calc
Hardness 44
Cleansing 21
Conditioning 48
Bubbly 25
Creamy 28
Iodine 54
INS 159
Lauric 14
Myristic 6
Palmitic 15
Stearic 9
Ricinoleic 5
Oleic 29
Linoleic 14
Linolenic 1
7% super fat and 35% water
Would you test this as is, or make some changes. I don't have a lot of deer tallow, maybe 750G worth. my friend has not gotten a deer yet this season.
I also have OO, but I want to avoid that in my soap, it tends to make me break out more, Avocado Oil, cocoa butter, macadamia butter, and shea butter.
I am placing an order for some lotion making supplies, so I can order different oils if need. I want to avoid real exotic or expensive oils though, I would rather save them for a leave on product. I am pretty sure I am getting some soy oil.
This soap is for personal use, and I will be giving some to the person I get the deer fat from.
Thanks,
Michael
