DoomsdaysCWLove Potion Soap
by Raven's Dream Maine
- 201 grams NaOH (Food-grade lye)
- 1lb 3oz distilled water
- 1lb 5 oz olive oil
- 1lb coconut oil
- 14 oz palm oil
- 10 teaspoons (2 oz) Love Potion blend essential oil.
Heat fats and lye close to desired temperature (100 degrees F).
Whisk quickly and firmly with a stainless-steel whisk. Once it is well blended, immediately begin pouring the lye mixture to the melted fats and oils.
NOTE - An immersion stick blender is crucial while blending the mixture! Otherwise, the soap won't last as long! (That goes for any cold processed soap.)
Pour into molds. I would recommend using a 5 lb wooden mold, or two 3-lb ones, and not fancy molds.
Put the soap to sleep (wrap in towels), and unmold it a few days later. (We use a closet with shelves to store soap in).
Use appropriate precautions while handling lye / lyewater, and wear protective gear (goggles, chemical resistant gloves). Lye and or raw soap can cause chemcial burns!
More precautions and tips can be found in the #SoapMakersCompanion book by Susan Cavitch Miller.
