Landa Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 My kids and I have really dry skin and I was wondering if any of you lovely people had a recipe for a soap that is good for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheila sullivan Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Castille is great, and it's just olive oil and water/lye, so you can get everything you need easily...just takes longer to cure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landa Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 Yeah I was thinking of just doing that because my skin is always really really dry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carriegsxr6 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 also throw in some Hazelnut or Almond (Sweet) oil in there. They have really high moisturizing qualities as well as olive oil does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landa Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 Do I need to heat the oil to make it the same temp as the lye? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carriegsxr6 Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 i usually dont heat my liquid oils. i only heat the solid ones so they will melt. by the time i add my lye to the oils, they are pretty much room temp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
