Aileen Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I just had to post this. I made some cp soap using my favorite recipe. I dont know what I was thinking but I grabbed my foaming bath butter instead of another ingredient without even realizing it. And didnt even find out until a couple months later. I kept thinking..man, this is the best soap i've ever made! My family and ppl at work I had sold some too kept coming back to buy some as gifts and raving about it. It was very moisturizing, sudsy, creamy, feels like silk in the shower! Of course I have no way to actually run it thru a lye calculator but there was definately no bite to it. I can tell ya one thing tho. I will definately keep making it for myself and family. Anyone else done this on purpose? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get creamy silky feeling using sugar in my water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 That certainly is interesting. I'm curious as to what was missing as well. I'm wondering if you could "superfat" with some FBB and see if there's a difference. Maybe I'll try it with my next batch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aileen Posted January 28, 2006 Author Share Posted January 28, 2006 The ingrediant that I left out was the soy bean. Im going to do some more research and look up the ingredients of the FBB. Please post your results if you happen to try this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
