White soap
I finished a plain white soap yesterday.It took 3 days prep as my energy is low.I built the soap around the amount of lye I had left.Using the
soap calculator.I plan to rebatch later for mothers day with fragrance and colour.ruined more floor surface from unexpected overflow that needs revarnishing now.
Note to self ,always over prepare before starting.should have had one more mold instead of over filling.
I poured it into my crazy half round molds lined so I may keep some plain white.I love those molds so much I will make better ones sometime with proper pvc ends as per TC's sugestion
Recipe :
2000 grms Macadamia Nut Oil (from birthday present can, which I shrink at the cost of someone buying it that way as it was 3 times bulk price,but did appreciate it)
Cocoa butter 250 grms..to use up what I had.
Coconut oil 250 gms
Aloe from my garden 600 grms
castor oil 100 gms
can of coconut cream ,400mls half of which I used with water and lye and other in oils.
I added half cup of brown sugar.
450.6 gms of lye discounted 6% as per calculator
liquid 1117 mls
Despite what the calculator says of moisturizing factor being 5.0 against hardness 5.7 I have found garden Aloe Vera to give incredible lather and moisteurizing effects.
I shall see.
It looks browny red just now.Same as any other white soap I have made that ends up very white.
I am going to add a phot later with tape measure on it to give you an idea of how mauch , after rain garden Aloe Vera it took approximately.
