My husband is vegan, so I tried making a soy milk, oatmeal and honey soap so he could use it (rather than using the traditional goats milk). I took a basic 4 oil recipe that I have made plain before and liked, then used soy milk instead of water and added the honey and ground oatmeal at trace. I just unmolded it and cut it up and it smells terrible
I thought it would smell great with the honey and oatmeal. Did I do something stupid? I mixed the oil and soy milk/lye mixture at 95 deg F.
Here's the recipe I used?
* 6.5 oz. palm oil
* 6.5 oz. coconut oil
* 7.5 oz. olive oil (EVOO)
* 1.3 oz. castor oil
* 8 oz. soy milk (I had put it in the freezer for awhile before I used it to make it slushy, as recommended somewhere)
* 3.1 oz. lye
*1/2 cup ground oatmeal
*2.5 tbsp honey
What did I do wrong?
