I am very new at making homemade lye soap. And would like your input on this recipe. What will make this recipe have a good lather. Thank you
 
It will be a mild, conditioning soap without many bubbles though, and not a very good cleansing bar. I'll be glad to help you. I make goat milk soap. Look in the recipe section for my "Wal-Mart" soap recipe.

Thanks Paul. I will be trying this recipe as soon as I restock my oils. I have ran out of alot of them. Where have you found to purchase your oils? I am used to being able to run to the store an get most of my oils, but we moved here in March an somehow I lose about 70% of my supplies. I have been slowly replacing them. Any sugestions on where I can get most of then at a good price and quality? Once again Thanks so much
