SOAPFREAK Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I scented this with Pink sugar and put bentonite clay in it for shaving soap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blazerina Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 It looks very creamy! So what do you do with it now? How do you package/use a cream soap? (please excuse my ignorance, lol) You stated it was for shaving, so im curious if this will harden and be made into a bar or does it stay in the cream state???? :embarasse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cream soap is a 5:1 mixture of potassium/sodium hydroxides. It's a semi-solid. I'm trying to find some good size airless pumps but haven't found any yet. So I put them in 8 oz. jars for now.

SOAPFREAK Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 Did you try www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com they might have what you are looking for.Sue AnnI tried there but they aren't near as big as I would like them to be. If I filled one it would be gone in two days the way my daughter goes through shaving cream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 That looks super creamy. What about bayousome for packaging? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondk Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 That looks so good. I need to find a recipe and try that one of these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsDammit Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 So this soap won't get hard, it will stay like that? I've seen whipped soap but that hardens up, oh boy I need some of that if it stays soft! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOAPFREAK Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 So this soap won't get hard, it will stay like that? I've seen whipped soap but that hardens up, oh boy I need some of that if it stays soft!It hardens up a little like body butter. At least this one did.I should probably let it set a little longer and add more water to it and whip it more, but I got to inpatient. :rolleyes2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tara Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 That looks so creamy. I am going to attempt this tonight actually. Hope mine turns out like yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you don't stick blend the next day if it is still stiff. I did mine and it cracked the bottom of my stick blender. DUH!Wait a couple days until it softens.

Tara Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Thanks for the tip!! So yours hardened up then went back to a softer consistency? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOAPFREAK Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 You are going to hot process it and then cover it and let it sit overnight. I turns into hard clumps.Catherine Failor's book says it will soften into a liquid in 24 hours. Well mine didn't. It took a couple days. If I wouldn't have been so impatient and waited a couple days it would have turned soft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tara Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Thanks. I must have misread my info. Did some more research and makes sense now....don't ask. LOL. I don't think cream soap is what I was looking for but it's "cooking" right now so I will go with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Hey SOAPFREAK, I wanted to bring this post back up to see if the PS behaved in your cream soap or did it turn brown? If it didn't does this FO usually turn brown for you in other applications??TIA :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does turn brown in soap but not sure on lotions and body butters etc. I wish someone could make a non-browning formula. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are some 16oz foamer bottles, but they are for very thin watery products. http://www.forsoapmakers.com/store/Foam-Pump-Bottles-c-1.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
