I love the salt bar recipe Paul posted, but has anyone made sugar soap and what type of sugar brown or white or both?

Any input would be appreciated.

Awesome thanks!. I never been one not to experiment, but..... I wanted to make sure there were no obvious side effects of using white sugar.

Thanks Tabitha

I've dissolved sugar in my lye water. One Tbsp goes in well; more than that and it seems to just sit in the bottom. But it does seem to make bigger bubbles in the soap lather. I think honey does too, and it dissolves better, so I've switched to honey.

If I want scrubby soap, I use oatmeal or cornmeal, or both.

Let us know how your sugar soaps work for you!

I made whipped soap and added the sugar to the end of the batter with the fragrance. I used 2 oz of sugar and it seems to have turned out neat. With the bar being whipped it looks very like a desert.

Here are the photos.

Is it scrubby like a pumice stone? I want a soap like the one in the nail shops.. the scrubby thing

That is nice!

smelli- it is mildly scrubby, but if you added more sugar i think it would be hard and scrubby. I'm not sure if it would turn out the texture of the stones at the nail shop.
