(just love that
name!)
48 Ounces Olive Oil
8 Ounces Palm Kernal Oil
8 Ounces Sweet Almond Oil
4 ounces Cocoa Butter
16.5 Ounces distilled water
8 ounces Almond Milk *
8.75 Ounces Lye
Tiny pinch of Raw Silk Fiber
I added the raw silk fiber to the water/lye- this reduces the silk fiber to
silk protein. Cool this down to 100, and add heated oils (also at 100). At
trace, I added the Almond Milk, 3 ounces of Almond FO, and 1/2 cup
calendula petals.
* To make the almond milk, I do not use a real recipe... I pour boiling
water over a handful of almonds. If you slip the skins off the almonds,
your soap will be a lighter color, but if you leave them on, the soap is
more of a golden brown color. Then, I grind the almonds up in the water
with a stick blender. Oh, use a small amount of water at first. Strain this
through a coffee filter or paper towel. Add enough water to make 8 ounces..
I suppose you could add the ground up almonds, or at little. I don't as my
DH doesn't care about "exfoliation"!
I have given this recipe to a few people, but if you have it, you may not
recognize it....I keep tweaking it! :o)
