Hi there. Hope someone can help me. I'm new to soap making.
I'll use a recipe for HP cream (whipped) soap that has very good reviews but I want to make it more like a mid-heavy LIQUID soap. One that I will be able to use with a lotion pump. I'm afraid if all I do is add water to my finished cream soap it will spoil fast. Would it?
How is that made? Maybe If I change the ratio of hydroxides. My whipped soap recipe calls for 173gm of KOH and 35gm of NaOH. Can I go from whipped to mid-liquid by changing those ratios???
Is it better to follow a liquid soap recipe and do something to make it THICKER??
I will very much appreciate any comments on this. :roll:

I have answered your question in your other post and here is a copy:


Adding water will work but you will need a preservative. I have done 70% potassium hydroxide and 30% sodium hydroxide that gets diluted after cooking. I don't whip any of my soaps including dual lye cream soap.
