This soap is one of my favorite "basics". It is just good soap with no fragrance or color. Gentle for babies and wonderful for mature skin.
2 oz. castor oil
36 oz. coconut oil
66 oz. virgin olive oil (lavender infused)
30 oz. palm kernel oil
2 oz. shea butter
25 oz. distilled water (for lye)
25 oz. fresh goat’s milk (frozen till just slushy)
19.6 oz. sodium hydroxide (6%)
Warm all oils until just heated. Add Shea butter. Dissolve the lye in the 25 oz. of distilled water and let cool to 85°F or so. Add the lye water to the warm oils (90 or so degrees). Add the goat milk after you have a good emulsion going. Bring to medium trace and pour into mold. I do not insulate this.
Because this is such a gentle recipe I do not add fragrance or color. I am sure you can if you desire to.
