Need Feedback on Shampoo Bar Recipe


Lady Di

Recommended Posts

I slightly modified a tried-and-true shampoo bar recipe. I don't usually deviate from recipes and was wondering if those of you who are more experienced could review my ingredients and tell me what you think. I made this last night and unmolded this morning. It feels a little greasy, but I think it will dry out. Used the CP method. It reached trace really fast. Thanks for your opinions.

Liquid (the original recipe called for a decoction of green tea and nettle):

12 oz. Aloe Vera Juice

1 oz. Cucumber Extract

1 oz. Chamomile Extract

Lye: 6.10 oz. (recipe run through a lye calculator)

Oils:

12 oz. Coconut

10 oz. Palm oil

8 oz. Olive oil

6 oz. Castor oil

6 oz. Jojoba oil (original recipe called for 6 oz. Hemp Seed oil)

2.5 oz. Cocoa Butter (not in original recipe)

Superfat:

1/2 oz. Castor oil

2.5 oz. Cocoa Butter (not in original recipe)
