SLSA

(Sodium Lauryl Sulphoacetate)

I have made it both ways. I like scent and my customers do too. I do use an OMH FO. It is by far a top seller year round.

Did you use FO?

No.I just used milk,honey and oatmeal LOL I think I may scent it also next time cuz umm it smells like cheerios ROTFL!

Do you scent it? I made some and the smell is well ..... I dontlike it.

Earlier in the summer, I used this recipe and made like 30 in about 3 days. It is so humid here that I havent been able to duplicate it since. I think I am going to wait until it gets cool here.

1 c. Baking Soda

.5 c cornstarch

.5 c fine sea salt

.5 c SLSA

1.5 TBLS T.R.O.

1 TBLS Fragrance

1 c citric acid

I mix all the wet ingredients together and then do dry alone except for the citric acid. After I get that wet sand then I add the citric and MOLD,MOLD,MOLD...hehehe

I hope this helps. I got this from shannonj.

I figured youd hafta to get a super thick trace

Now I know someone knows the answer to this.

How do you layer your soaps in a log mold????

You and Robin made me wanna try again. I suck at it LOL I think I got 3 good ones today.

Very cute!!! I really like that green!

They look good. I actually was thinking of trying again tonight LOL!

Hi all! Sorry it's been a while since I've been able to check this thread...

The 1.75oz size is going to be way big.. A little of this stuff goes a long way. Score the ones you have on the backside, making for 3 melts out of that one that can but cut or broken off at your score marks. Too much of this stuff makes a greasy mess!

I don't color with cocoa powder anymore either, looked too much like a terd floating in the tub, and since I take my bath with the kids, I'll take no chances!

Girl, you are a mess. LOL

Olive Oil for me

How do you all polish your soaps?

How long does it take you to get to trace using a stick blender?

Oh I love the way this stuff smells. It smells so good and it is kinda hard to describe.

I have just been going to all my Krogers around here and finding it in a corner collecting dust. I pay about 4 bucks a can usually. 5.99 is kinda high.

ONE MORE Question

Are we weighing the SL?

Yeah I made a batch with Tonys molds yesterday and poured them at a light trace. Worked like a charm. I did hafta stick em in the freezer for about an 30 mins. They just fell out though.

thanks. I was waiting for you to chime in. How much olive oil do you use? and where?

thanks but that link really didnt answer my question. all it did was tell me what it does. lol

My husband being the sneaky devil that he is bought me some Sodium Lactate. If I make a 2# batch(using CP), should I add one ounce of SL to my water before lye and reduce my water by an ounce? Or am I confusing myself? Haha!

Everything looks great!

Looks good to me.

Hey is that your mold in the background? TIA

Thats the thing for when I cut the soap on the left and the thing that is apart on the right is my upland mold all apart.

That is sooooo cute!
