I love this recipe! Thank you! 🥰 I substituted some of the non-essential things for sulfur and chlorhexabadidine. I used lavender, tea tree, and clove essential oils to make the dogs some shampoo bars. 😁 I love them! I can't wait to use this recipe to make myself some shampoo, now.
Thank you for such great recipes. I started soaping with you about 10 years ago. I have made your aloe shampoo bars and my friends and I love them. Question - I have fine powder SCI at home, can I substitute that for the foaming noodles in the same amount and process?
Thanks for your kind words! As for the SCI, I'm not sure how well it will work in this recipe though it is fun to experiment. Let us know if you try it!
There are plenty of options out there for an electric double boiler and there is not one in particular that we would choose over another! We recommend purchasing one from a brand or company that you trust or thrifting one if this is a new hobby for you.
All those synthetic detergents that make up a syndet bar [what was made here] contain coconut derivatives. I can't use them and neither can a few of my customers.
You could try using Potassium Cocoate or the Gentle Bubble DC instead. We haven't made those substitutions ourselves so you would want to do a small test batch to ensure the recipe still comes together.
I am going to be fair. I find I learn less and less from these recipes. Hint, if you have to explain the chemistry because it sounds unnatural, that's because it probably is. Regardless if a product is chemically 'derived' from a plant, it will never be the same complex biological organism with a mind boggling array of constituents and benefits. We can't even begin to understand the myriad facets of our ancient relationship with plants, and yet we have the hubris to think we can tweak a knob and get the same result? Point being, there are far too many chemicals in your shop, and I don't believe that's how or why you started making soap. Ostensibly we make soap because we are trying to get away from toxic commercial waste, not diy it.
To be fair, not everyone starts DIYing to escape all those chemicals. I'm not in general opposed to them, but I like to control which ones I add to my products and which ones I avoid. I also do some natural things, but not exclusively.
You do know when making soap with lye you have to explain the chemical process to make it, and making soap with lye isn't natural either....soap is literally taking natural matter and chemically processing it into a whole other matter...humans literally had to chemically process natural ingredients to make soap...just like humans have to process plant matter to make essential oils. All organic matter is a chemical process. There's nothing natural about soap then if humans had to chemically process it....
Everything is a chemical, including water. However, not all chemicals are toxic. Not Everything naturally occurring is safe. Mold is natural but you wouldn't want it in your products. Read, learn and educate. Stay away from fear mongers
