I made a transparent bar soap this past spring, and rather enjoyed the experiment. It is not homemade melt and pour once it has had a chance to dry and cure because most of my solvent was ethanol, which evaporates off. It's ridiculously expensive for soap, but quite satisfying to make.
I'm considering making some more transparent soap and want my sister to test it for me, but she has hard water, which limits lather. In my normal cp bar soaps I was going to make around the same time, I was going to use sodium citrate as a chelator to help with lather and soap scum. Does anyone know if adding sodium citrate will make transparent bar soap more cloudy? I'm not finding much on the subject around the internet.
