Whipped soap that floats - all natural

HP Oatmeal and Honey Soap. This by far is my fav soap b/c it contains no fragrance or color. I use this and this only on my 8 month old and it keeps his skin soft and healthy!

Hecho con deliciosa miel de abejas, la cual provee una limpieza profunda sin lastimar la piel, dejandola muy suave al tacto.

Inspired by hansens foray into hot process I thought I'd try it out last night.

used castor oil, wheat germ, jojoba, shea butter, coconut oil, and palm oil. It was supposed to be a gardeners soap, so I've added some ground oatmeal as well. Coloured with green mica, and scented with Wasabe fragrance oil.

 

It's a three pound batch (oils), and I cut the FO by halves of what I would have used in CP - I could have cut it a lot more! Wow - it's strong, and it looks like green brains.

 

Colouring it was difficult, the colour does not like to incorporate, but I wanted to get the whole batch as the wheat germ oil was very dark - I didn't want brown and green soap.

 

Yup, my first batch of HP is really, really ugly!

 

I really need to learn how to make smaller test batches - this is why I have way, way too much unsellable soap!

The soap is mid-way through the cooking process & has folded into itself.
