You Bastard Soap
by Zia ~ October 18th, 2006. Filed under: Soapmaking.Designed with essential oils that are calming to those of us who are plagued with hatred for the world (and especially our partners) once a month.
My basic larger batch recipe, which I’ve found to be a nicely moisturizing and luxuriously lathering soap:
252 g oo
252 palm
216 coil
102 g lye
9 oz water
Then for the additives:
2 tsp clary sage
1.5 tsp frankincense
3 tsp geranium
1.5 tsp rosewood
2.5 ylang ylang
1 tsp cedarwood
1 tablespoon ground marsh mallow root.
**Update: This is a lovely, lovely soap. I only have one bar left, and am jealously guarding it.
