I finally got around to ordering lye so I can make more soap. I can't find it locally anymore - the brand that Ace and True Value carried is no longer 100% NaOH and Lowe's stopped carrying Roebic brand last year. The Husband is not terribly thrilled that I have 12 lbs of lye sitting around now. Too bad.
Today it's Honey Oatmeal soap. Here's the recipe so I can actually reproduce it if it turns out well:
1/2 0z beeswax, grated
16 oz lard
4 oz olive oil
2 oz coconut oil
1 oz cocoa butter
7 oz water
3.1 oz lye
At trace add 2 t honey and 4 oz finely "blended" oatmeal
