Hi everyone,
I am trying to formulate a facial soap, which is something I haven't done before.
I have been fiddling around in the Soap Cal lye calculator and have come up with the recipe below.
I was hoping for some feedback as to whether you think it is too drying with the Palm and Coconut oil. I have very oily skin so it is hard for me to tell from testing, as my skin seems to handle soap with a high level of coconut oil.
I was hoping for no more than an 8 week cure time if possible.
Coconut Oil 15%
Olive Oil 25%
Cocoa Butter 15%
Shea Butter 10%
Palm Oil 15%
Castor Oil 10%
Sweet Almond Oil 5%
Macadamia Oil 5%
Superfat 10%
The lye calculator puts the hardness at 38, cleansing at 10, bubbly at 19 and conditioning at 58
Thanks so much Amanda
