mysticalsoaps Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 awhile back I posted about silk fibers in soap. I had gotten some red silk. Here are most results-I added it this time right to the lye water as i mixed- the silk disolved right in. Also, it ended up being colorless, so that a good thing.now, I don't know how it actually feels to be in the soap, since its cp, I got about 4 weeks till i can actually test it!!Annette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorrie Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 I don't know if this is the best discription of it or not but to me it makes the soap glide a lot easier that w/out. And it will have a silky feeling to the soap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 There was a thread at the Dish a couple years ago about using silk from old blouses. The poster said that she would go to yard sales and thrift stores and buy silk blouses, regardless of color, and cut them into small pieces and use those in her lye water.

Fire and Ice Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Well I'll wait for a silk thread co-op to come around on the co-op section of the boards. I want to try it at some point because I have always heard wondeful things about silk in soap. Later this week, I'll be buying so DSM from KB to also try in my soaps!
