White Christmas Soap
Recipe Instructions
The original recipe was taken from Kapia Mera's Confetti Soap. I had adapted the recipe to attempt to make it whiter. Her recipe as followed:
Olive Oil-45% (She said that she used a light color olive oil and that's why it came out so white).
Coconut Oil-25%
Sunflower Oil-10%
Shea Butter-10%
Cocoa Butter-5%
Castor Oil-5%
Superfat-6%
Lye Solution-33%, 2:1 water to lye solution.
