Rose Cream
Soap©2001, Denise Washburn
6 ounces Avocado
oil
2 ounces castor oil
12 ounces coconut oil
14 ounces olive
oil
8 ounces palm oil
6 ounces shea butter
6 5/8 ounces
lye
12 ounces rose water
4 ounces cream
1 ounce liquid
silk
1 ounce True Rose fragrance oil
***1 tablespoon ultramarine
pink
1 ounce olive oil you will not use all of this in
the recipe!
1 teaspoon rose hip powder
Use rose water to make your
lye solution. Melt your oils together and add 3 teaspoons of the
pink oxide olive oil mixture to your oils. Combine lye solution to
oils at 90° and bring to a light trace. Add cream and liquid silk,
bring to a trace again. Add fragrance oil and bring to a
trace. Remove two cups of soap and add the rose hip powder to
this. Swirl this soap with the rest and pour into prepared
molds. This is a very faint color-contrast swirl...to make it
darker you could use merlot mica in place of the rose hip powder.
This soap goes to a heavy trace fairly quickly after adding the cream,
so be prepared to work fast!

14 ounces olive oil
12 ounces palm

5 ounces wheat germ oil
15 ounces water6? ounces
lye

1 ounce
olive oilyou will only use 1 teaspoon of this mixture in your soap.
1
ounce Bay Rum essential oil from CG
Mix hydrated chrome green and one
ounce of olive oil...set aside. Mix lye with your water.
Measure your oils and melt them together. Add one teaspoon of your
hydrated chrome green olive oil mixture to the oils. Combine lye
solution to your oils at 100°. Bring to a trace and add your bay
rum essential oil. Pour into individual molds. I used the
shamrock Milkyway molds I got from BB. This can also be poured
into any molds, and then sliced into bars. I poured what didn't
fit into my shamrock molds into a Torengo's can.
Susan's White Soap
Recipe
Castor oil 2 oz.
Coconut oil 20
oz.
Refined olive oil
34 oz.*Lye
8 oz.Water
19
oz.Olive Oil*Don't use extra virgin or virgin.
I get this
refined stuff at Costco,and it's butter yellow in the bottle. The
extra virgin comes through tothe soap as a (rather nice, I think) scent
and very pale greenish color. But if you want really white white, you
gotta go refined.
Bobbie's Lard Soap
Recipe
1 lb 8 oz Coconut Oil
3 lb 12 oz
Lard
4.5 oz Beeswax
2 lbs 1 oz Water (or other fluid)
12.13 oz
Lye (NaOH) @ 7% s.f.
I believe it's what you add in the way of
EOs, herbs, etc. that really make
the soap. It's a little
high in coconut, but balances with the lard
nicely.
