Recipe:
204 g olive oil
30 g pumpkin seed oil
30 g castor oil
150 g coconut oil
138 g shea butter
48 g cocoa butter
140 g distilled water (+40-80 g extra for hot process soap)
12 g citric acid (do not omit if using this recipe)
91.4 g sodium hydroxide (adjusted for citric acid)
½ tsp titanium dioxide
¼ tsp green oxide
1 heaping tbsp almond butter
10 ml fragrance or essential oil for a lightly scented soap
Cure the soap for 4-6 weeks before using it on your skin.
○ Citric acid information
When citric acid and sodium hydroxide lye (NaOH) are combined, sodium citrate is created. Sodium citrate works as a chelator in soap.
A chelator traps metal ions such as calcium and magnesium that can be found in tap water.
These metal contaminants can cause rancidity and soap scum in handmade soap.
A chelator binds to these metals so that they can’t bind to the soap molecules. This way the soap won’t react with them and the soap's lather improves + shelf life increases.
Citric acid does not lower the pH of soap. Instead it consumes some of the lye and increases the superfat. Add 6 g extra lye for every 10 g of citric acid added to a soap recipe if you want to keep the superfat % at the same level.
How much citric acid should be added to soap?
Usage rate in bar soap is 1-2% of the oil weight.
How to use citric acid
Add citric acid to the distilled water and dissolve completely before adding the lye, or make a separate solution of citric acid and distilled water and add to the oils.
